My names Ed, and I live in Barcelona, Spain. I am from the Republic of Ireland. I've been living here for 13 years. In that time I've had a number of cars.
First one I got a year after arrival was a '93 Prelude 2.2 vtec. After that I got a '00 BMW 318ci. I sold that to get back into university. So now I've got this 1996 GT. Its covered in dents and scrapes. Pretty tired looking. I want to make it look like new, improve it where I can and try to keep it as standard as possible. I'll be painting it black, and keeping the wheels as they are, just tarting them up a bit. All of this depends on my finances of course, so it'll be a slow process. Patience will be required. Lots of patience. This post has been edited by Edser: Jul 21, 2022 - 5:58 PM -------------------- |

Just a quick update. I made some mounting brackets and fitted a universal 2DIN cage. It took quite some time as I wanted it set in quite far so that I could have the face of the 2DIN behind the console and not protruding from it. The lining up and fitting of the brackets and the cage was very time consuming and annoying, but finally I got it more or less where I want it. So I plugged in the harness and connected the subwoofer. I didn't connect all the random wires (camera, lights, reversing light etc) as I had no time.
Later I discovered that the clock is defective, so I'll swap it for my original one. I'll also swap over the airvents as these ones are filthy and the ones I had before were clean. I may wrap the console in a stainless steel vinyl wrap also. Next up, connect the tweeters. -------------------- |
