Welcome inside my new truck.......

Aug 08, 2009,12:03 PM
 

I start to remove some covers so I can locate some electrical stuff.

Here will the sound system be.

The dashboard will be out for a minute.

I have locate number 28 for the pulse cable to my navigation system.

And put in a cable.

Ready to rock.

Then I need a amp in correct color. LOL

It will be fine behind the seat.

Of course we need a bass speaker too.

This one will melting with the interior.

And there we go, sounds like a dream. Bluetooth for the telephone too.

Mmmm, some goddies from the painter.

Hello Jocke! The VW is looking good (and it's in my favorite color)! I guessed right, a navi system! The Becker Traffic Pro was available for my car but I didn't get it. I'm curious of your opinion on it when you have everything up and running. Cool yello... 

Thanks...........

The amp is nothing fancy, but it works good to that speaker. Jocke

The sub is a JL audio? [nt]

I have 2 of them in my Benz too. You can't get something better in that size, it's incredible how they sounds. Jocke

Great progress

A SILLY QUESTION

 
 By: Yves007 : August 10th, 2009-07:45
Hi, I have been watching every step of this transformation so far and the same question comes to mind: Why buying such a basic and ugly vehicle just to destroy and reconstruct it as a "high end deluxe" (and much nicer) one? I have always thought that orde... 

I'm guessing...

It wouldn't be as much fun. With a impact wrench, car lift, a couple of screw drivers and socket sets, who doesn't like tearing something apart and messing with everything? -MW

options from the dealer..

contains a lot more markup..that's where the dealer makes money... besides...you get to have the vehicle the way you want it...and yes..its a lot more fun...

I can give you a straight answer on that question

The things I do with the car is not possible to order, so I have to do it myself. Then I will get it just as I like and no manufacturers will tell me what I can get. I hope that clear things out. Jocke

Your van is awesome!

Jocke, I really like your yellow van! It's rockin'! It's been fun seeing your new van come together with all your improvements and modifications. Thanks for sharing your photos with us! Cheers, Daos

Be careful about Becker radio and Bluetooth ...

... I have massive troubles with one of my Becker radios. In my Nissan, I have a Becker Cascade, and its Bluetooth module does not work with any Windows Mobile-based cellphone. Apparently, it employs a Bluetooth-protocol that is not yet implemented into W... 

The Bluetooth have works perfect..........
