Soooo it's finally a time for another update.
I have changed my dial's LED's from Orange to white using a kit bought from ebay
The rear of the car was then lowered by Kyle (Gti180Boy on here) Can't honestly recommend this guy enough, absolute top guy and extremely genuine when you meet him!
I sprayed up my gully strips in VW Diamond Black as I was fed up with the faded look
The car then got a clean - Not really a MOD but meh!
All A, B and C Pillars then got sprayed Black with Rubber Vinyl Spray
A 307 spiller was purchased and fitted
I then decided that I wanted more VW Diamond Black so I sprayed up both my wing mirrors from Gloss Black to VW Dimond Black
The car wasn't low enough, it HAD to go lower - Coilovers fitted and torsion bar adjusted (Again)
Then came some new shoes - Toyo Proxes T1R's
The rear 3 windows got tinted in a 'dark smoke'

Chapter 9 - The First Few Months of 2012 - Ice Ice Baby
So 2012 has hit us, and this year I want to sort out the sound system in the Pug!
After a lot of thinking and swapping of ideas I settled to go with a JBL build, keeping as much as possible to the JBL brand and only swaying away for little items, the reasons are simple, I like OEM, 206's had the option of a JBL sound system from the factory, not a power system but still JBL was an option from the start so thats what I went with.
I then starting thinking SQ (Sound Quality) vs an SPL (Sound Pressure Level) Build I opted for an SQ build as I really don't care all that much for Sound Pressure.
Let the purchasing begin!
First up I ordered a set of JBL-P6563c 3 Way Componets
Once they arrived I then ordered a JBL GTO-1004e Amplifier the P6563c's are 2Ohm 3Ways which means this Amp would push 150watts RMS into them, plenty for an SQ Build.
Then came the main part of the build, Two JBL P1222's, Each sub has Two 2Ohm voice coils, I've wired these so they are seen as one 2Ohm load on the Amp.
Powering the Subs is a JBL GTO 7001 Mono Block, At 2Ohms this pushes 700watts RMS into each Sub, again more than enough for an SQ build.
I fitted the Crossovers in the small pocket to the rear of the door cards
And the tweeters were put in adjustable pods on the mirror covers
New battery terminals were ordered
Along with a Volt Display Distro Block
The boxes for the Subs were built, this is a temp job as larger ones are actually required for these subs
All wired up and Volt Display working
Then I ordered a JBL Remote Sub Level and installed it in the small compartment near the steering wheel
Not ICE Related but I also sprayed up the rear window plugs as they had faded and looked abit kaka!
Time to light her up! I wanted the Subs to be lit up at night, a nice Ice White SMD LED Strip soon sorted that out! This is wired to only work when the boot is opened.
I also fitted smaller strips in the door pockets for the Crossovers, Again this only comes on as the doors are opened, the same as the curtsy light.
And also some under door lights, these are 'Ice White' but look blueish on the phone camera, I also have the same SMDs fitted in the footwells, again as always these only light up as the doors are opened, they're also on a switch so I can turn them off even when the doors are open.
And finally, I've ordered myself some Pressed Plates BOYAH!
