Re: Car phone

Hi

I have this Blaupunkt Motarola 2600 brick phone with a handsfree kit to fit and wounded about where to fit it. I don’t want to drill into any of the trim etc.

Help with side trim.

Hi Guys

Does anyone know how you get the plastic fixing in position without damaging the chrome finish on the trim.
Looks like I twist it into position, but I can see the chrome starting to deform.
Any ideas.

Found them very helpful. When you go there it’s a large manufacturing facility.
Thought it can’t be here, but a guy called Craig met me at reception.

Hi Paul

Thanks for that. Looking at the drawing for the r/h speaker, my wiring colours are different. The blue/red and blue/brown may be for something other than the speaker.

Re: Bonnet Allignment

Hi

After removing the headlight assembly you can get to the bottom of the bonnet/ hood hinge and move it only about 0.5mm, which isn’t a lot but makes a big difference because the bonnet/hood is quit long.
You can also raise or lower it from this point.

Good look.

Hi Ron

Should there be one on both sides. Replaced my intensive water bottle pump and noticed it has no protection from the rain. I just have a deflector on the passenger side.
