Sorry to be a pest, but a photo of that cable from the cabin, showing where it comes in through the firewall would be a nice addition to that group? I know you can sort of work it out, but with dash in it's bloody awkward to try and wrestle your way to that point, I seem to remember!  A pic of what's where in relation to the 'entry point' might help.

Would be good as i need to bring my battery cable through the bulkhead. Thinking of using a proper gland though so it wont leak/rub.

I've used the grommet with the conduit running inside the car too. I'll try and get a picture tomorrow but it is behind the bulkhead sound deadening.

This is where the wiring comes in...

And a few more pics from today

Not bad for an afternoons work. Getting there that's for sure.

Way over that now.

Great work so far

What ever happened to your last Fabia project?

What ever happened to your last Fabia project?

Broken up sold off and the shell scrapped. Didn't have the time to invest in it and better things to do now we have the camper.

Up the unit again today. First of all a good tidy up and put some racking up.

Then popped the wishbone bushes out of a spare pair of wishbones.

Gave them a quick blast and some etch primer.

Putting the rear window regulator in. Actually remembered to put the peg back in the window glass first which is unlike me.

Regulator in, additional two self tappers at the bottom to pull it in nice and tight, this is where they normally leak and the clamping force isn't very good.

Then sealed up.

Same on the other side, now just the fronts to do.

Amp and X-over mount mocked up. Just need to take it back out, trim it up and attach the speakers.

Looking very tidy indeed Ross. Nice work.

Early finish on a Friday so got a little more done.

Pretty happy with that tbh

Amp mounted. Got to dig out the X overs from upstairs in the unit and mount them and start connecting everything up.

looks good

Nice build.. I'd be lost when it comes to Audio upgrades.. might pop over :-)

X-overs dug out and installed.

And now the fun bit starts

Missed you getting the saloon unfortunately.

Very nice.

Last couple of bits up the back today.

Made an earth stud up for the amp

All connected up and trims all refitted in the boot.

Working my way forward now, cleaning and installing as I go.

Very tidy work mate, like it.

Thanks Tom.

Going the right way now..

Hopefully get the rest in tomorrow.

Very nice work!

 

Looking great, I always had a soft spot for the unloved saloons

All back together now

Next up console bushes, wheel bearing and CV boot.

Toons are working

And so have the coil overs
