A year in the making.... Update 22/1/18

Who did you get to do all that for you then Ant? Eh,Eh.;)=))=)) Looking very nice mate. The old units look pukka but a modern one is more useful really. I can't quite make it out, is it a Sony unit?, that's what I had in mine.

Yeah its Sony. I've been told to use my hands my lefts good and as long as i don'y need to palm anything its not bad stiches out on Wednesday :)
 
Just didn't want you over doing it bud, I know what I was like when I was off work for weeks. Drives you batty.;)

Final took the plunge to change the headunit in the car.Had the stock bmw business cd player but thought that the system may sound better with a more uptodate unit and add bluetooth etc.
Found a head unit local for £25 a bargain really has all the features i need so after getting the correct loom so i could use the hk system still.
Fitted well and has made a difference in the fact the sounds alot fuller and can now bluetooth stream .

Got some acs plaques for the floor matts just a simple touch but as they are quite substantial and bolt through they look quite well. Have the pedals to match on order and then the inside is nearly finished.

Crikey that was a bargain for the head unit Ant :thumbsup:.
Liking the plaques on the carpet mats,they compliment your new sill trims and your interior is looking top drawer mate,all very tasteful.

Ant seems to have an eye for subtle changes. A tweet here and there makes a big difference to his car. As @Bozzy says, top draw mate. :thumbsup:

Theres quite a few around when you look Steve they are alot cheaper now than they used to be ...bargains to be had :thumbsup:
 
Cheers Dave two more bits to add and then done inside. Then when my hands are better sll the oily bits and stuff you don't see to refresh.:thumbsup:
 
As always with you Ant, it's the attention to detail. Looks great fella.
 
Just a gear stick surround to add when southern boy completes them and thats the inside done.
Short of may be a full speaker refresh..:thumbsup:
 
If you check back @t-tony installed the footrest in his z3. I believe he slit the surround and added an aluminium strip to make it work. I intend to do this also so may be worth looking into before getting rid of the footrest. JIM

I think thete is a little more room on the left in an auto jim my foot only just goes past the clutch pedal so not a lot of room / point to it really ...

Oh yes sorry I remember the thread now.
 
Some really good stuff going on here Ant, loving the mods but its threads like this that are costing me fortune :thumbsup:
 
No major expense really full pedal set was only £26 so i didn't break the bank.
But i know what you mean when you see things done and the ideas start and before you know you own it =))
 
I guess I'm lucky to be built small then I may be able to get my little foot on the clutch past it but time will tell!! Keep those ideas coming. At £36 you did well my ACS were a bit more! Keep the ideas flowing, the one's you've implemented look great!! JIM
 
It amuses me that people say there isn't room for a footrest pedal, yet it's already there built into the carpet !:)
