geez can you believe this thread has been up since feb 2005? this is still the first batch of panels 4 this group buy right?

i noticed my aircon blinking for the first time about a month ago. no such incident happened since... but least i may know the source of the problem now thanks

im ASSuming that u remove a couple screws/bolts, lay the cooling panel down and replace screws/bolts... am i wrong anyone? i havent looked at the instructions but it shouldnt be that difficult yea? from the looks of the pic, part of the panel goes just under the grille... not sure if grille requires removing but thats an easy job as well.

i remember last year in a special toyota edition of hot4z (i think that was the mag), there was a blue corolla (not sure if it was a sportivo or othewise) that was done up real nice... think custom cream or white interior... since i cant find that mag anywhere in the house i was wondering if any of you remember the mod im talking bout. i may be wrong, but im pretty sure the owner of this rolla added DOWN LIGHTS inside the hatch door, so when you open the hatch the downlights would shine straight right down into the boot space. im really looking 4 a way 2 brighten up the bootspace coz that stock boot light just isnt doing it 4 me at night! its useless! so if any1 is happens 2 have this particular magazine and is able 2 scan the pics... or if you even know the guy and the corolla im talking about, it would help me out a lot in figuring out what 2 do. thanks in advance. jase

THESE ARE GENUINE C-ONES COOLING PANELS. AS C-ONE WEBSITE SAYZ: In [rajieta]=(RADIATOR?) fresh the cooling panel which leads the air. As for the engine cooling panel you send to [rajieta] the fresh air which enters from the grille, without wastefulness, improvement the cooling effect. It is the necessary part in the high rotary type engine and the turbo engine where we would like to pay attention to water temperature rise. In addition not only the functional aspect and lux of aluminum make produces the engine compartment in the Spartan OK my translation of this translation: cooling panel makes use of the air which enters through the grille by directing it into the radiator. installing this results in a cooler radiator, which means lower water temp. also makes the engine compartment look good, or spartan! spartan = less cluttered appearance or minimalist... ever learnt bout the spartans in greek history? translation of that translation: cooling panel good. RAJIETA!

i think at this point it may be worth noting which fuel you are using? is it unleaded? pulp? what?

umm.. yea umm.. rig? dont know if you noticed the date of the first post... almost a year ago now hehehe! where you getting your flares from by the way? if you are in western sydney i know of a few places in blacktown you should check out. jase

pics of what corzza?

yea i noticed those fuses when i was connecting the RCA cables 4 my sub! thats crazy how come all the fuses arent in the 1 spot?! WHYYYYYYY?!!?!

i was only asking bout petes 6x9s out of curiosity. yea im aware that 6x9s sorta negate the need 4 subz... previously installed 2x sony xplod 6x9s in my old landcruiser... plenty of bass for the money i paid 4 it :) i was looking in a caraudio place the other day (not sure which 1 coz theres at least 4-5 near my house that i regularly check out) and found SOUNDSTORM speakers... logo looked very similar 2 SOUNDSTREAM... had them confused! thankx 4 ur input people! will keep your thoughtz in mind next time i go audio shopping.

yea i waNNA watch it but im in no big rush 2 get that dvd... cant u drop it off at my work on the weekend?? :P anywayz back 2 the topic..... originally i wanted it silver, and i did paint it silver at 1 point but i sanded it all back down again... i thought y not change it to something else. badboyz u got a good point bout it being a moulded wing instead of a being a T-wing... that was kinda my logic as well... since those spoilers could be a differnt colour, y not mine?! but yea totally different lookz. but yea i dont want my car 2 look tacky. thats the last thing im after. just as long as it looks better than stock, but at the same time not over the top. ill figure something out anyway. thankx 4 ur input people.

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.... honest opinion much appreciated badboyz. but geez... every other corolla with a spoiler on the road is the same colour as the car. oh wellz...

i think ill definately go with the black then. some1! please gimme the 3 digit code 4 the metallic black! was planning on buying the paint 2 day 2 get startd on sprayin my spoiler reason 4 dumping the red idea is that if i make the spoiler red... im gonna have 2 paint other stuff on hte car red 2 go with the spoiler... frekken colour coordination :/

so the 6x9s fit underheith the stock grille on the rear door? thats another question i been wanting 2 ask. if i got 6x9s or if i change the speakers on the doors at all, would i have a problem with them fitting behind the door panels or is that not a problem? oh yea and where did you place your ampz pete?

i think ill pass :P when i actually got some money ill consider it haha What happened to the DIY? ? That's where i'm going along lines - cooling panel = cardboard cutout against alluminum sheet from bunnings = GOLD jules sometimes there are somethings you just cant DIY!!! and im not tlaking bout my wingtips either! been holding off on that spoiler install but thats my next mod whether i like it or not! buying paint as soon as i find the colourcode 4 the metallic black corolla colour!

i just got this image in my head... like really dark cherry red colour... similar 2 the red break lights colour. not bright red. its just an idea... although i may be leaning more towards the metallic black colour. update- ok maybe 4get bout the red... ill settle 4 black :P whats the metallic black colour code?

ok as you may or may not know already, i got a 8" kicker solobaric in my boot and im pretty damn happy with how it soundz. i know many of you here wouldnt recommend using the same brand speakers all the way through your car, but since no1 has mentioned much about kicker speakers b4, i might as well pose this question to you. i hear all this stuff in here bout MB, jl, mtx, clarion, alpine etc speakers as a replacement 4 the stock speakers, but what about kicker? ive heard them in JBhifi and they sounded fine... but i think the guy serving me was trying 2 give me the hard sell... making my buy stuff i really wasnt even thinking about. so in your opinion, how does the kicker speakers compare to the other brands? quality stuff? made from good/bad material? why should i not buy em?

50 bucks ill do it :P u just gotta drive your ***** 2 sydney muahahaha

yes i guess the lucifer 1 is what im after!? whats the colour code 4 that? im still also after the metallic black colour code as well if you can help me out. thankxz sorry mish... i know the topic title was heaps general.. but i thought i made it specific in the last sentence of my first post :P so yea just after the lucifer and the metallic black colour codes. thankyou badboyz your avatar is disturbing. been wanting 2 tell u that 4 a while! muahahahahahaaha!

oh yea but yours is like a flat red right? im after the metallic colours.

ok my corollaz colour code is silver 199. im considering spraying my spoiler something OTHER than silver. possibly in ink/ metallic black or maroon. can anyone please tell me the colour codes for these or suggest another decent colour 2 paint this spoiler in????

i think ill pass :P when i actually got some money ill consider it haha

yep, the remote wire should connect 2 the ignition wire thats right next 2 the speaker wires behind the HU. Heres a couple pics thatll hopefully explain how i connnected the positive wire and fuse to the battery although the fuse looks like its just hanging loose in there, the wire itself is cable tied in places so its definately not going 2 move anywhere. 2 make life easier 4 u when installing the converter and this positive wire, you gotta get your HU out, and remove the glovebox. ***2 remove glovebox, unscrew the 1 screw thats located on the left side... grab the left and right walls of the glove box and PULL the fcuker 2wards you. should pop straight out with the right amount of force.*** by sitting in the passenger seat and looking into the cavity where your glovebox was, you still wont be able 2 see the hole you are feeding the wire into! theres 2 much crap in the way for you 2 see that hole clearly. not even with a mirror.. tried that.. wasnt any use. all you got 2 do is jiggle the wire around and continue feeding the wire through.. eventually you should see the end of the wire hanging down near your feet and you can pull the wire the rest of the way.

yep thats 1 design flaw that i really couldnt forsee while building this thing! i mean i could only make a guess at the centre of gravity of the box, and i basically just hoped that the weight would hold it down! right now ive pretty much folded and wedged the nonslip mattz and so far so good. maybe i should glue the nonslip mattz to the back with my spray adhesive! theres an idea. i havent carpeted the back of the sub. when you pull it out you can still see the exposed fibreglass. i was going 2 paint it black but i couldnt b bothered at the time. will let you know which solution works best. once again thanks for all your advice guyz! really appreciated the help. jase

well on your amp u should be able 2 see that to power the amp, you need 2 connect 3 wires. the positive wire (on my wire kit its thick REDwire), ground wire (thickBROWNwire), then the remote wire (thinBLUEwire). the amp needs to be connected 2 the head unit via the remote in order to tell when the stereo is in use. if the stereo is off, the amp would also shut itself off. simple enough right? if i described the function of the remote wire incorrectly, please feel free 2 correct me :/ as for the converter, my guess is it wont matter if you connect it 2 the front or the rear speakers. but i chose not 2 f*ck round with straight 4ward instructions and soldered the wires directly behind the HU itself. as 4 finding the wires in the B pillar.. i hear every1 saying i should connect it that way, but since i plan on upgrading my headunit later on, i thought now would be a good oppertunity 2 see how 2 get the head unit out. behind the HU, all the wires i need 2 solder into are there; and when i upgrade my HU im going 2 need those RCA cables to reach behind the HU anyway! plus i already have the proper RCA cables that can reach from the boot 2 the dash, so yea i dont want 2 lay the cables down twice! just do the job right the first time and be done with it. and when i do eventually upgrade the head unit, itll be straight plug n play coz all the wires are where i need them 2 b. the only 2 cables that should connect 2 your HU from your amp is the RCA and the REMOTE. amp gets power direct from the battery with the + wire (with in-line fuse). the ground wire connects 2 the nearest bolt that you can connect it to. the remote.. ya i went through that already. yea i had my dads sidchrome extension knob thingy laying round so yea thats what i used 4 unscrewing the HU. ill add pics later..
