I'm very good mates with the guys at a ICE shop behing where i work and we were discussing how we can put a HU in the Ibiza for when i get another one, Gonna see if i can get a Double DIN touch screen unit mounted in front of the gear knob at an angle, then smooth everything else off. I've seen cuprapowers satnav unit so it should be easy enough!

I really like how you mounted yours though pete, Not to sure on the trimming though, especially when it's white! Maybe in black alcantara it would look good.

well i think the interior is gonna stay black and red.. dont think anythin white inside wud look good!! as i sed was our first go! can easliy be pulled off and done again in different colour etc.. but work well so im happy for now!! il get progress pics of it up soon in the bodyshop

its much easier to just "come out" and say your gay these days, you wont get gay bashed, no need to drop huge hints like you've done with your dashboard

nice job with the headunit but that pink (ok red) dash looks really really out of place to me.

If the whole dash was the same colour maybe it would work but i dont think that does sorry

Have you had your car resprayed yet then ? Any pics of that ?

 

[carlisle pete]

fair enough it actually doesnt look bad in the flesh as the rest of the interior i.e seats, door cards etc are all red and black leather aswell.. think it will be gettin changed to black in the near future was just a first effort see what it looked like... and the car is stripped and mostly rubbed down shud be in primer on saturday.. il get few progress pics up later after work..

 

[Ninja]

ah ok i didnt realise there was more of it.. like you said probably looks really good in person...

Wicked i cant wait to see the progress pics.. Think a white cupra will look wicked

[carlisle pete]

haha cheers beattie!! hopin it will look cool yer!! wheels are goin anthrasite no wi hav decided rather than black but il keep you all posted

 

[beattie17]

Will need to get my car down to you's so you's can get my headunit done bud

 

[Steve GTI]

can i ask what have you done with the heaters? Cos obviously hot air blowing onto the back of the HU will not do it any good.
