Yesterday, davedel and I pulled half my dash apart to install the new stereo we sourced. Ran the GPS antenna through the dash behind the glovebox to sit it just under the left corner of the windscreen, ran the microphone through the right side of the dash (under the steering column) and up under the trim to have the mic just poking out at the top of the A-pillar.

Aside from an AM radio reception issue (working that out now), I'm pretty damned happy with it - bluetooth works really well, the inbuilt GPS is far from terrible (and it's a WinCE based device, so I can change to something better if required).

I haven't had a chance to post on here for a while about my 1.6, so far I've installed new projector headlights with angel eyes, had my water pump, timing belt and belt tensioner changed. installed a pioneer headunit (DEH-P5150UB) and 20% tint aswell. Parts to be put in - KW V1 Coilovers, 18" MK5 R32 Reps and R32 MK4 Bumper bars

didn't really think of it, but which part did you want pics of? the JB weld? because that was just to patch around the screw holes as they got ripped open when it got pulled off

How do you rate the 20% tint ? not too dark ? keeps the car cooler in the sun ? thinking about doing mine ..

Yea its nice and dark, not too noticable which keeps the boys in blue away. Alot cooler than before when I had no tint! Cost me 250 which I was happy with.
