lol, i will get them on, get pics and then we can all decide :D

but i will probs keep them all 9J as i CBA with looking for a swaps or a pair of 7.5's.

They're going white and then on the car :)



Oh and lambda sensor on order, hopefully get that fitted and then my mpg might go increase! This is following an email reply received from QPeng:

Quote
You should see 30 mpg + as you say, although this does depend on the type of driving you do - lots of short trips/cold starts and driving in town will reduce this significantly.

Using the lambda probe should improve things significantly since the ECU uses it to build up a map of the most efficient fuelling for your engine. You need a 4 pin narrow band one from transversely mounted 1.8T - it's the post cat sensor from any non-AGU code engine and the only sensor on the AGU.
