thanks for the replies i have ordered the infinity reflection series as the kappa series were twice as much i have coaxials for the back and components for the fronts i've read that the crossover needs to have special mounting ie not on metal is this for all crossovers or with passive crossovers does it not make such a difference? thanks again for the replies, Rich.

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: ipod holder

« on: 08 January 2011, 15:39:35 »

I have mine inside the arm rest thingy. Ran the USB cable under the trim by the gear stick etc. No one will ever know its in there.

Also; have a read of this http://www.206info.co.uk/Forums/viewtopic/t=592/highlight=ipod.html
I know its in a 206 but might give you some ideas 

linky no worky! but nevermind i made up a holder for the pod with the cable attached, inside the armrest is a good idea i must say!

thanks for the replies, i saw that one but what i really want is just a fixed holder with a cable that is always in there to go back into the stereo and all you need to do is slip the ipod into it, all i seem to find is ones with fm transmitters or just holders which you then have to plug in the ipod every time it's, an ipod classic 160gb

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / Re: Retro Fitting Parking Sensors

« on: 17 November 2010, 16:38:14 »

You wouldnt catch me drilling holes in my bumper for reversing sensors, if your a good enough driver you dont need them, its not like the omega is 60ft long 

usually i'm not bad but being a caravan and all it is quite long compared to a limo and extra help is always good especially when its only €30 and i'm sure you can drill the holes neatly but dnddave sounds like he has the solution with a strip

Omega Electrical and Audio Help / finally stereo fitted

« on: 17 November 2010, 16:43:48 »

well finally put the finishing touches on my stereo today what a pita that was the original hole wasn't big enough for this unit so had to take the plastic carrier out to get the new one in (or i would of had to fashion something else to hold all the surrounds on) well what started as a quick job ended up taking 3 hours! but the end result was o.k

unfortunately as i suspected the rear speakers have seen better days so will need replacing so will be doing all four at the same time, i'm looking at the infinity range any one know anything about them? also can the tweeters stay or will i need some fancy trickj to re-wire them? thanks all, Rich.
