    They look alright. Not really for me.

    I agree about the coin tray. Nice to have, cheap, and easy to install.

    My take:
    I would leave the chrometrim on the vents.
    As for the wheels. That is a VERY PERSONAL taste item.
    Myself, I don't care for big wheels ( 19" ), etc., because it makes the car look like it has toy brakes on it.

    Yes, I have a few mods, but they\'re so discrete, my wife hasn\'t noticed them.

    I would get some new floor mats. Are those things from the '70's? Otherwise all is ok.

    time to see the mods ON the car...

    take a pic of the rims AND the car with a wider angle and let's see how it looks bro.

    do it daytime...

    I prefer amg/lorinser/carlsson as in terms of synergy with the 202 body...

    but it's really personal aesthetics...when the ride got them shoes on is when you'll really know though

    what rubbish...

    dojnt listen to that guy who told u ur stereos crap and u cant hook up heavy speakers to ur systems thats rubbish, look if u like ur stereo the guys prob just saying u cant hook up an amp to ur system because it aint got no phono points on the back to go into the system but if u look at any sound shop or appliances store with detail u will find a converter wire, two speaker wires into a phono, wire up ur two wires into the phone converter and plug the converter into the amp job done, another way is u can actually buy some amps where u can just line in, that means just connect the speaker wires from the system into the amp and the line outs are the same u get like 4 line outs for 2 line ins that means ur front two speaker wires to an amp and u get 4 channels that come out and that means ur two front speakers and also 2 extra for the heavy ones in the boot dont listen to these ppl if it means they have to go out of their way to fit it or they dont know abt it they make it sound as if these things just dont exist absolute rubbish,

    if u need any more help mail me and ill tell u how to wire up a system on a ford standard stereo from a 1980 model ford and if u heard it ud be like wtf***, i know because i saw it done lol#
