2002 VW Lupo Cambridge - JDO

[Deaky97]

Had a bash on the lupo over the last few hours, got some of the wiring issues sorted and fitted my new speakers. Swapped out my 220w Alpine speakers for some new 280w Alpine speakers instead. Fitted actual speaker rings too instead of some washers, screws and blue tac.



Then onto the wiring issue, that being the loom was about 4 inches too short to reach the drivers side lamp, so i've now extended that.







Roughly 5 inches added in





Then tidied it up with some nice conduit like you'd find out the factory, and it all runs along nicely now

I love these little VWs wish we had them here in the states.

Hahaha, trust me i wish we had half the stuff you guys have over here

They'd fit in over in the states tbf! I'm sure once they're 25 years old people will start importing them!!

I've sold them :-( I've bought 16 inch BBS :p
If you'll look in the dutch part of the forum you can find my project.

I feel betrayed. What BBS's have you gone with? I'll go and check your thread out!

So, i've had a go at measuring wheel dimensions. Image wheels seem happy with the measurements i've taken so they're now drawing them up!

Once it's back up and running, i'll be taking it for paint! Exterior wise it's not actually that far from being done now!!

[Mehowski]

please don't do badge the front

+1 for VW badges

[Deaky97]

Cant wait to see how this turns outs, mate are you gonna incorporate the VW badge into the Arosa grill or just de-badge it completely?

Can't wait to get it done mate, next pay day it'l really be kicking off! Hahaha well i was unsure of this, my dad is a metal worker however so he's already made that decision for me, in the form of a big fat stainless steel question mark!
