Each to their own. If it will sound a lot better then definitely go for it. I'd imagine though that to get the best out of the system then you would have to change the speakers as well as surely they would be the limiting factor?

I'm with p3eps. Most scumbag would put the window in in the off chance you have left the faceplate in the car or it is some sort of motorised faceplate that spins round on taking the ignition keys out. (I had this on a Kenwood but don't think it fooled anyone).  Even if they took the unit without the faceplate, there are ways to get one. Ebay being just one of them.

Thanks to all of you for really helpful advice and the time spent giving it. I am very grateful.

The 'tea leave's are a real worry especially in Central London. Maybe a notice that there is no faceplate to steal might help?

This will be the last of my retro-fits apart from a possible re-map. Obviously, lots of advice and help will be requested from all of you, that is if you don't mind.

I will have to come to a decision re the Sat Nav in the next few days. This is what happens because I did not spec the car properly in the first place. Silly sod me!

Very hot in London today.

am1W what you want mate is what im getting. Its security film for your windows. Its like tint film but thicker and when the window gets broken it holds the glass in one bit so make it harder to do a smash and grab. Ive had it on my last few cars including the mk1.

Brilliant. :laugh:
But some of these 'tea leaves' will go for this too as it will sell well in the 4th world!
I'll have to consider Snoops suggestion of a security film. It will also probably make the car quieter too.
