fitted my new stereo, so if any one wants a cheap dvd stereo with hacked wiring lol its here

couldn't believe the state of the wires it was awful should have got some pictures really, but it looks like the original wiring harness had been cropped then the one for the dvd player had been male and female spaded connected with big yellow ones, and all the wires that come from the dvd player like the radio aerial and tv antenna and all the rf in out stuff had been cut off and just left bare so while the dvd and cd player bits worked fine you couldn't use the radio or tv and av functions. also found that the amp which seems to be pretty good wasn't actually connected to the speakers although was wired into the head unit so thats todays job i think

the one thing I have noticed with the HID's in the newer front lights like mine is that they aren't as bright, the thing I put that down to is the quality of the lenses used, one thing I'll be doing over xmas will be seeing if I can swap the lenses for the original ones

Welcome to the SE9 club mate !!! Looks really nice.

Keep an eye on ebay for the BBS alloys. They do come up every so often. Do a save on the search and it will email you when any come up.

Think they go for around £130 ish IIRC. If you can't find them, why not go for something similar in style but meatier, like the alloys on Mark1's SE9. eg 18" BK299's. I think these complement the car perfectly. Here's a pic.
