The holes either side of the sub is were i removed the supports to route the cables and rca's, they were replaced later.

Thats a pretty nice set up how long did it take you?
Thanks dude, it took about 2 months on and off to complete, a pain in the a$$
Jeez thats a long time well looking at the photos it seem to be worth it :)
Do you have any photos of the complete job?
Also i was thinking of replacing the stock head unit with something that has bluetooth/iphone connectivty where did you get the frame around so you could use a single din head unit?

I have to agree that it's a hassle changing the oil filter. I just could not get it off, after an hour of trying I ended up stabbing a long screwdriver through the centre of the filter to get it off. After that the oil filter fell out of my hands and got wedged just below it and yes oil went f%#%^€£ everywhere.

Thanks for the link. Although the guide is useful doesn't really explain how to put it back in which proved very difficult
