it's ok I've taken them out of a Clio parcel shelf that my aunt gave me so I can just trace the holes in that for an exact fit!

What's the best tool for the job? What's the best method or cutting the holes?

I've replaced the original front speakers with a pair of vibe slick 40's (10cm). But i think something's wrong (either that or they're just shit). - There's no punchyness at all (was more on the originals!) - I need to turn up the head unit much high to get the same level of volume - There is crackling in the bass Is this down to my wiring? Basically I've crimped the new speaker cable that came with the speakers on to the old wire just before the loom into the adapter that plugs into the head unit as i didnt want to chop off the whole loom. That said, i used the complete original wire first and the sound had the same problems. Could the lack of punch be something to do with the fact there are only two mounting screws essentially meaning the speaker has room to wobble about? I'm not really hearing any advantage of these 50w RMS speakers over the original 10w rubbish. Surely that's not right

Well, it's miles outside the 14 day period now and NO LETTER!! Cheers for all your advice guys...guess there was no film in the camera!

Cool! I'll wait for the letter.... only 10 days left for it to get here!

Cheers Ryno. It was FP. I haven't actually got the letter yet I;m just assuming I'm screwed.... Anyone got flashed by a red light camera and got away with it??

So do you HAVE to have lessons? i was hoping not to bother with that and just go straight for the test!

So I've just managed to notch up 6 points in my first two years... Apparently you have to get a provisional licence again and take your theory and practical test again. Has anyone had this happen to them? How long did it take to get back on the road again? Basically, if it's more than a couple of months I'm gonna get sacked

South West London....not the cheapest of areas. All the quotes I'm getting are around that or much more!

Okay cheers for the advice guys! As I've probably said, any mechanical stuff is way beyond me, even changing wheels!! So far lowest I've been quoted is £235 cash. The guy says its gonna take 6-8 hours to do the springs and change tyres / fit new wheels. Is this right? Sounds like alot of hours compared wht you lot have been sayin!

Ok, so I've got some new 15" wheels (just about!), and some lowering springs (25-30mm drop). Fitting either of these is well beyond me. What price should I expect to pay to get them fitted? (in London!) and can anyone recommend a good place to get it done?

Cheers Joz! I saw the link.... was hoping to find some a bit cheaper than that! They look nice though... don't think I want s/hand springs... never know where they've been!

Thanks for all your responses... think I'll keep looking for now! I will post up some pics of my Starlet very soon...she's a 5 door!

Where can I get some? All the lowering springs I've seen are 30 or more. Am I right in thinking that I can keep my standard shocks with 25mm springs? (as the SR had them...)

Cheers Shelly, I've been lurking for a while now.... finally in the market for some mods!
