That would be great if you dont mind. I am thinking of wiring an xbox360 up to it as well but i got to get my head around powering it.

The model i have got is this one

See you Sunday,
Graham

Best thing about it is, if our lass does my head in, i can sneak off to the car plug the wireless xbox adapter into the car's xbox and play online in the car

Think it will need a good amp and subwoofer to add to the effects

See you sunday mate

Hi Andy and John

Any objections to me bringing my Rover 45 along?

Wouldn't mind having the tracking checked over, as the car sometimes feels a bit skittish (may just be cheap tyres). Plus I get the odd suspension type squeak, a possibly noisy wheel bearing, occasional squeaks from brakes (plus I think they don't work well enough) and I'd like to have a look underneath, as general underbody corrosion was an advisory on the last MOT.

Hi Ian

You're welcome to come over to our meet, Its still a rover so we have no problems with that at all

I am sure the advisory on the last mot stated someing about bringing cake or biscuits though

Regards JOhn

Cages for these are a pain in the butt, I will make up a sliding rail system I devised, WIDE LOAD has his fitted the same way.

I would take a supply for the 360 from the supply side of the 12v rail of the fusebox, and fuse it independantly with a inline fuse near the 360. when it is off it is off, there is no standby power demand (I think)

All you need is a spare 360 PS lead

That would be great, let me know if there is anything you need or there is cost making the parts involved.

I have got a 240v power converter for the 360 and i have a spare lead as well.
Hopefully it will be good once its all installed.

thanks John

You will need a double DIN surround, I butchered my single DIN because I was applying walnut trim, your unit looks almost identical to the Xtrons.

if it is staying black you will need one. PM WIDE LOAD his black double DIN surround looks good and is a good fit, do not remember what surround it is. I know trebor has the BMW surround.

johnwh74 · 16th January 2011, 12:18

I have sent Trebor and Wideload a pm to see what theirs look like, I dont want to be copying other people, just looking for ideas.

had a look on ebay, not impressed to be honest but will have a root around and see what comes up
