Popular Post thealastair34 Posted April 22, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Thought i would say hi! Picked this NA up from Will B last week, it will live along side my Elise as something i can use more often, nothing major planned for it, ive swapped the headunit for a carplay/android auto and am going to upgrade the speakers and thats about it, looking forward to more comfy european road trips, the last one roud Italy in the Elise in August wasnt exactly ideal 😄 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gold FFM TdM Posted April 22, 2021 Gold FFM Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Looks great, fast mover on changing the head unit! Also I thought that was a very small Cossie wheel on the outside of your garage at first and then noticed it has a hosepipe attached...

Whitey Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 Nice purchase. I went with Focal door speakers and tweeters which fitted well and gave much better sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thealastair34 Posted April 22, 2021 Author Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 It does but mine didn't have the OEM alpine reverse camera, it has one that just used a av lead so worth checking what your is, the good thing about the aftermarket unit is that the cameras are cheap if you needed to change it anyway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whitey Posted April 22, 2021 Report Share Posted April 22, 2021 I’ll have a look at which model vocals I got, but the Tweeters were a direct tight push fit replacement to the oem ones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitey Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 The Focal kit I have is "Performance Expert PS 130/165V1" It comprises, 2 door speakers, 2 dashboard tweeters and 2 crossovers. The speakers are pretty much a straight swap, but the crossovers are more difficult as you need to take the sill covers off which are held on with weapons grade sticky tape!

Thanks, do you know if the non tech pack cars have crossovers in the sills? Was hoping i could just remove the door cards and swap out the speakers!
