I fitted a pioneer f940bt, full double din touchscreen with satnav,bluetooth and handsfree.

I mounted the gps receiver under the windscreen wiper scuttle, the ipod cable into centre console and routed the mic under the windscreen pillar plastic so no visable parts on view.

Tein strut brace fitted



Standard wheels back from Powdercoat. Had them done Matt Black. Don't wanna be running 18's as have always found 17's a better drive. These came up very cheap and took them. Keeping the other wheels as track day wheels as have some AD048R's to go on them. Fitting these tommorrow.

The grill was modified and painted by prodriverules and I replaced the grill with a piece of zunsport custom sheet
