Default I.C.E. Help

Hi Guys,
I was bitten by the idea of improving the sounds in the car so have worked through getting a decent setup put together. Slowly but surely have picked up bits and pieces.

Having saved on all the bits I've secured a better set of speakers than I originally expected, but I've managed to stay under

I suspect the speaker kit will be enough to improve sound quality. The further dynomatting I undertook was to reduce exhaust drone and transmission whine entering the cabin. It was surprisingly effective - I was out in another stock S2000 yesterday and the difference is quite noticable.

Thanks Craig.

When doing my install, I completely lined the boot (including the lid) and as much as I could along the "floor" behind the seats where the spare wheel sits. Also did some on the doors and used the dynamat to cover the separate tweeter from behind. The boot was to keep the bass from the sub in. Also probably helped reduce drone from the HKS.

In the end I spent about

OK I see you took the door cards off. And .....

Is that not the plastic liner?

I can't see the gleeming shiney stuff Mikey?

Are you having a laugh?

I think he must be!








But I don't have a photo of the Brown Bread on the door either (notice the surgeon's instrument for such careful tasks)
