Lots of head scratching went on today when playing with Audio settings (aftermarket sub wired up to standard head unit)

I was trying to find the cause of some rattle *i thought bass induced premature interior plastics fail* :') if you can call it that!!

Couldn't really find anything so then thought oh darn (swear filter friendly) I've blown my speaker.. Thus spent 10 minutes figuring out which speaker/how it'd blown...

Was pooing myself until upon closer inspection I found 20p wedged in the drivers side door card storage trim between the side and the 'floor' of said trim.

Anyway... Managed to pry this pesky 20p out with a set of keys only to find the rattling sound still existed. So there's me thinking wtf, how have these coins magically passed through a seemingly impermeable piece of plastic and into the inside of the door card...

Not content with removing the one coin I managed to spend a further 10minutes fiddling with the underside of the door card to get these extra pennies out :') pressing bashing and bending the plastic every which way to get them out.

Now the trusty ford interior plastic bank has returned the 33p (yes all 33p of it) that was rattling around which was hampering music quality, I'm 33p richer for the experience but do I feel like a t-I-t? Yes.

Long story short. Don't put money in the door card trim as ford will steal it only for you to spend best part of an hour retrieving it :') if you've already got this problem then don't worry you haven't blown your speakers!

Spend your windfall wisely

ha ha ha, nice one, there is nothing worse than having a rattle and you can't figure out were it comes from.

Ha ha I thought stuff like that just happened to me! 😁😁

Nah happens to us all just I thought I'd warn everyone else if you find you're not as affluent as you thought the likelihood is the car is borrowing from you!!

I've invested my pennies wisely and am hopeful in becoming a stock trader in the near future
