so it goes like this......

last night the heater direction control thing died (feet, windscreen, blowers etc). and the stereo froze up. then the clifford central locking pissed me off. so i punched it and skinned my knuckles. so in order to get to the heater thing i had to take the fascia off. then found the stereo was jammed in. so took the stereo out with the fascia and ended up raggin the stereo out the fascia. now. seeing as ive always hated the ripspeed stereo im ditchin it and fitting the oem sony out the Si. also took out the sub/amp/ rear screen wiring. saved a whopping 2300000000kgs out the gti tonight. top bombing....

question is.... how much wiring does 1 stereo need?

Nice pics, the cattle grid on the last stretch of the triangle is horrific. See any other 'triangle users' out there?
 
i was expecting the cattle grid, read about it on the pistonheads forum! saw a luminous green (strange standard colour) ST205 GT4, not sightseeing, thats for sure, and on sunday on the A4212, 2 lotus exiges and a scooby in convoy going the opposite of slow. awesome roads int they :lol:
 
Yeh mint, probably better this time of the year as no traffic or police...in the summer the Police use unmarked R1's to 'patrol' it:( What a fuckin good job they have.
