[saxo-vsx]

theres only one way to find out. try it mate. make a thread on it

[Sparco_Tom]

why would he need to make a thread on it? he could search or take my advice

[SaxoIOW]

im in the middle of doing mine a the moment. Took it ou thisevening and putting the red rallye capet in tomorrow. Really not hard if you have the right tools, sockets ect.

[saxo-vsx]

a thread to show people how easy it is and how to do it.

[LSOfreak]

i dnt understand why some people are going on how hard it is?

as said its piss easy. front seats out, rear seat folds up, centre floor console off (one screw), then just pull it up from the seals of the doors, and under the footwells. need to make a bit of a slit behind the centre of the dash. my first time doing it took no more a gd couple of hours

[Sal]

im a girl btw lol and how do u make a thread?

[willsy]

well the other half dont think it seems it lol!! see what i mean who do i believe?? :(

Piece of cake :) get yourself a decent one (can get blue, red, black or standard grey)

Is this another thing to add to your list Sal :)

[Sal]

ok right so is it easy or is it hard then? lol half of you are saying it is half are saying it is not?? xx

[saxo-vsx]

just give it a go and find out.

[Sal]

i might just leave it for a couple of years i dont really need it ripped out just wanted 2 no if it was easy or hard lol :S

[willsy]

ok right so is it easy or is it hard then? lol half of you are saying it is half are saying it is not?? xx

If you've not done it before it can be tricky but its only knowing what bolts to undo and then remembering what does where.

Honestly theres nothing difficult. Ill guide you through it

Yeah pop over anytime, can give you plenty of helpful hints and tips with the suspension etc. Theres alot of good value kits out there, just depends on your budget and exactly how good you want it to be :)

Definately get yourself some 195/40/16 tyres if you have larger ones.

Carpets no problem either.

[Llardy]

ive got a blue one for sale, and when ii replaced mine it only too me about 3 hours all in and i also had to run wires for my sound system

[JayEmDizzle]

To be totally honest.. Ignore the folk goin' "It's a waste of time!".

It's not a waste of time if at the end of it you look at the end result and smile!

If you think it'll look good and individual, fuckin' go for it!
That's what moddin's all about! :y:
