got a link to order the decal interior stripes? it looks nice

The original offer isn't online anymore. It was something like this: (not exactly mine are pure red) https://www.ebay.de/itm/273791420714

But if you have a look at ebay or Amazon with some tags like interior red trim car gap stripes or so, you'll find some from China or maybe stock at your country.

Today's work: Stereo upgrade.

Important: If it can not be done by force, it can be done by more force.

Removing the door covers is just awful. Thanks to @Maverick for the how to.

Sound? A bit deeper. More clear. Also on high volume no problems with deep sounds. Definetly worth it.
Thanks @Haba1205 for the stl file which could be modified and also for the correct names of the connection plugs.

It feels wrong to sit on this side when your car is not right hand drive.

I like the look, way more sporty. And by the way, it's cheap, fast to install and nice to look at.

Hey danny,

No, I've used the integrated Amp of the radio. Just replaced the stock ones with some others. But: be careful with selecting other speakers and their impedance. The ones I used have nearly the same (electrical) specs as the stock ones. If you'll play with resistance, be careful with maximum power output and current, otherwise you can (may) damage the Amp circuit.

thanks for the reply mate, do you happen to know the speaker specs off the top of your head?

Nope sorry, but you can see the ones I used on the pictures. We have also a large thread about stereo or audio upgrades - there are some guys only changing the front and rear ones, other guys just upgraded to a subwoofer and also some completely changed the whole audio system, including the work on the doors for insolation and tweeters.

Thanks again, I wanted to upgrade the door speakers and tweeters and add an underseat amp but im very much a newbie but at the same time feel confident to do it myself with a bit of guidemce especially regarding the numbers etc
