guys thanks for everything, the wiring diagrams were magic!!!! problem was.... the wiring loom/harness for the headunit was not right, I hooked up another headunit to the instructions you guys gave me and it worked, this leaves me with the conclusion that the problem lies in the new JVC headunit. All fuses are still intact. Once again thanks guys, maybe i can return the favour some day! Nigz |

just last week i had my 17's fitted, most important is make sure u get hub rings!!! or else the only thing holding ur wheel to the car is the bolts on the car. if u dont want the wheel/rim to look too small id personally go for 40 profile tyres. |

the vibrations seem as though they are comming from the two front wheels, could it be that my shocks or struts which are stock standard are damaged? there is no vibration when i accelerate in neutral which might rule out exhaust noise. a description of the vibration would be like that when u are driving on unbalabced wheels at over 120km/h (100mph i think!) the car then goes smoothly as long as i dont accelerate hard. Think i might have to change shockers.... thanks for all ur help so far guys, some more input would be greatly appreciated. |
