Dylan8's Vento

[dylan8]

Found out the Vento has all Windows down/up by using the key, sweeet. Didn't know mk3s had that.
Really need to start throwing the dash and wiring back in ready for roady, this police blitz makes me cringe more then usual driving the bora

I thought it was a neat feature too, I accidentally discovered it. Unfortunately I think I busted a window reg that I forgot to disconnect because I permanently shut the window and I kept the key in unlock for too long .

whoops! ^^

So started gathering all the bits I need to put the interior back together. Oh my, so many parts. (basically booth and rear seats of the vento are full with parts I think I may need)
Worried if I put the dash shell in ill then find out I haven't plugged a few other things in.

What are people doing around the air vent joints when the foam has gone?
Just leave it with a small gap here and there? or is there a quick fix?

Fitted my black sunvisors, got sick of looking at the filthy cream ones. look a bit odd for now until I get the black headlining in
retro fitted a mk4 woodgrain knob I had left over from my bora to a mk3 boot and base. will do the job for now.

Been hunting for a new headunit, want something OEM ideally. but might have to settle for just a OEM look as id like bluetooth or Ipod capabilities

I have an OEM stereo packaged up, except it's the cassette type!
I've since upgraded my unit to a newer Sony one. I found that Sony's industrial black design blends in with everything else in the car and it looks like it came with the car. I was never a fan of the chrome-y type stereos because they felt cheap and out of place to me.
Siri while driving is super handy as I can't actually look at my phone to read messages so it reads them out to me, I can reply using my voice too. The DIN standard is awesome because we can upgrade our cars easily, shame it seems the industry is moving away from them.
I got this model: MEXN5050BT

Hmm, my foam seems to have come out of all my vents...everywhere.

ill have to check it out! cheers.
I found a OEM Minidisc unit, being a MD user and fan back in the day I thought it would be appropriate (still have all my discs and player somewhere), but will see.

Yeah know a bit comes out, but mines basically all gone being we had the dash out. ill see how close it lines up when I bolt the dash down

damn mk3s, why you no turn interior lights off after 'x' period of time like the bora.
Got the flattest of flat batteries now after leaving the boot open and front interior lights on accidentally last night.
No good when I cant get jumper leads to the car how its parked

I just just took out my OEM 10 cd stacker and head unit if you would be interested, at least it isn't obsolete!

Reverse roll start no worries Dyl! Minidisc player would be off chops as well

Don't have too many CDs, but got a picture of it?

Did think that. Problem is if no dice then it's stuck blocking the driveway lol. Polo is hard enough to push up the hill with 3-4 tradies on it.
Think stu has a battery pack so will give that a go
