davey l wrx Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) Simple question, being in the Forres/Elgin area is there anywhere (apart from bloody Halfrods) in the area that does stereo's? I'm thinking about going down the in dash TV route and would like a decent choice. Having been back in the area for 2 1/2 years now i can't remeber anyone mentioning a decent shop for ICE. I am prepared to head to Inverness or Aberdeen for a decent shop i've looked on line and nothing came up! Edited February 24, 2010 by davey l wrx
scouk Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 Halfords is probably the best bet in the area.. I think there was a place in Nairn that did that sort of stuff but not sure if they are still on the go or not.. Can't remember their name.. Not sure about Inverness, but there's a place in Inverurie thats a sort of halfords ish but more car related: http://shop.autoparts-inverurie.co.uk/ Not been there but planning a trip through at somepoint.. For aberdeen there's checkpoint on George Street or I think Holburn Hi-Fi on Holburn street specialise in car audio stuff.. But selection is limited.. I've been looking at buying a JVC KD-DV7402 (already have a 7" screen in the car), but best options and prices seems to be had online.
davey l wrx Posted February 24, 2010 Author Posted February 24, 2010 (edited) Cheers Al, i've looked on line there's some half decent deals out there i was just wondering if there was a decent store in the area.... I'll check out the place in Inverurie i think. Brakes first (front and rear discs and pads) then Ice i think. Just found this place too http://www.raysmith.co.uk/ Doesn't look too bad. Just need to do a search on the speaker sizes now and see what i can get for front and back. Edited February 24, 2010 by davey l wrx
scouk Posted February 24, 2010 Posted February 24, 2010 I seem to recall the speakers need to be pretty thin and even them will need a small spacer (for fronts anyway) Infinity 6030cs were the ones most people were goign for as they include the small tweeters too :thumbsup: Interested to hear what you go for. I've been considering ditching the rear door ones and sticking 6x9's in the parcel shelf Having the rear speakers so low down in the footwells seems daft IMHO..
davey l wrx Posted February 24, 2010 Author Posted February 24, 2010 Been reading up on ScoobyNet and 6X9s in the parcel shelf is a bit of a biatch to sort. The boot mechanism and centre seatbelt reel get in way. Plus it means cutting the metal out to fit them unless you go for a full stealth shelf install. I'll scope out Halfrauds at the weekend and look on the net, Focal 6500 with corsa adaptors seems to be the popular choice! Then it's do i fit them (limited tools but i can get a jet in the air with nothing more than a Leatherman) or go for a pro-intsallation
