Had a bit of time on the car today. Couldn't get hold of my mates decent jack so couldn't get the exhaust on  So I started on some stripping and prepping for the cage. Removed seats and carpets, and started on that shitty sound deadening stuff in the footwells. As it was cold, opted for the hammer and chisel approach. Here is where I am up to now. Both rear footwells pretty much done.   Hammer and chisel worked pretty well actually  I think the heatgun would get a bit messy and hard. Problem doing it the way I did is nearly blinding myself with the sharp bit flying round. Got a few cuts while picking some of it up. Gets bloody sharp  ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

Also removed the door cards which was a piece of p*ss with the help of Nev's thread. Top work  As I am getting new flat door cards, I am thinking of what to do with my speakers. Since deciding to turn it into a track car, I have always wanted to keep it good for weekend drives, and also still bearable for getting to the track and trips to the 'ring. I really want to keep my speakers, so I have thought of making something up in the glovebox? Thought this made the most sense, as when the cage is in, the glovebox cant be used anyway? What do you guys rekon? Ways to do it? Wonder if vittesse_tuning could make me a carbon bit    ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

Good work there chris. whats wrong with just keeping them in the doors? cut the holes out in the door cards when you get them and leave theme where they belong. ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

It seems like the door cards stick out, so wouldnt be enough room for speaker in new door card? It would stick out? Will have to have a look when the door cards get here. manthos wrote: yea boy the front is stripped!!!

they do a little but you could just have a pod made up for them to sit in or run abut of foam around the back to fill the gap in. here is mine but you will have to zoom in to see it better ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

You need to remove your centre console  Also, the black rubber thing behind the pedals (which you have removed), does it go up behind the dash? ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

i have left the center console in for now so i can keep my loose change in the ash tray but will be coming out soon enough. yes the rubber thing goes behind the dash, you cant get it out unless you take the dash out or cut it. i just used a stanley knife to cut mine out. i cut every part out that i could get to what leave a small but left stuck under the center of the dash i also see your airbag ecus next to you door. get them out you wont need them without the standard seats and i cut all my airbag wires out so no more airbags in my car  ________________________________________ Clicky: [url =http://www.306gti6.com]click here[/url] remove the space between [url & = |

Chris, I agree with Eddy on the speakers and if you cant open the glove box with cage in wouldn't it be better to rid of it? Loving the striped interiors though chaps  Don't think i would do it myself, love the half leathers too much, particularly if its the ph1/ 2s  ________________________________________ I Live for the 306TEAM CHERRY PINK RALLYE 2008 BMW ///M 320d |

I went out to do some more of the car tonight. Could hardly get in it as the doors were frozen shut. I removed the airbag units from the footwells and started chiseling some tar shit out. After about 5 minutes I gave up Chiseling by torchlight in a car of minus temperatures is not too fun. Will leave it til the weekend I think ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

I love the lightweight idea of a polystyrene cup I will check it out when the doorcards get here, if they still fit in the door, it's a bonus eddy_gti6 wrote: chris get some pics up of your power steering pump. thinking about moving mind to the bottom. what belt have you used and have you used the rallye aux belt kit? Speak to Rich_W mate He will provide you with everything you need to move it, and a guide (inc. pictures) on how to do it. He will even be very helpful if you mess it up (like I did) ________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |

Hmm, not sure mate. I bought half the kit second hand from a member on here, so I managed it for about £100 I think.________________________________________ Chris1999 China Gti6 Supercharged [Fun car] >>Project Thread<<2000 Bianca 306 Diesel [Work runabout] |
