Re: sound dampening advice

well, looks like ive got plans for my days off haha... tbh my rev 4 isnt too noisy, only road noise from rough tarmac roads.. I also put some of the sound deadening foam sheets behind firewall, behind seats, and that made a small difference, altho 1 cm is max thickness really, as its difficult to po...

Re: sound dampening advice

This sounds like it would be ideal, but think about the damp/water that would get in and eventually rot it? aye, I have thought about any damp, was thinkin about wrapping it some shrink wrap/film before packin some in.. I did put some 1cm thick sound deadening sheets in the doors too, against outer...

sound dampening advice

Hi all, sorry if this has already been talked about, but couldnt find much on the forum. I have a load of spare roof insulation and wondered if this could be used in the front wheel arches? Just to dampen some of the road noise. I know its prob not safe in rear wheel arches due to heat from engine, ...

front lights not level when popping up (sleepy eye)

Hi folks, don't know if anyone else might have come across this, but I installed a sleepy eye switch for my 2, and when trying it the drivers side light doesnt lift up as much as the passenger one, so when i got them up a quarter or half way, it looks wonky. However, when I move switch all way they ...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Found unplugged wires under dash?

aye, I wasnt sure about that either, but I think the dimmers were only on the UK MR2s, so thought the loom would be different? only other thought was for a traction control switch? with them being optional on the tubbys? TBH i do find the tubbys more interesting in terms of figuring stuff out, as th...

Re: [Mk2] [Turbo] Found unplugged wires under dash?

aye, sorry about the pic size, tis biggest I can make it.. It makes sense if the white plug might be for a turbo timer.. it could hav had one fitted during its time in Japan, tho cant see any sticker residue anywhere on the dash if it was there, wasnt sure if it could have been for the optional crui...

[Mk2] [Turbo] Found unplugged wires under dash?

Hi folks, just a random question if anyone knows.. was installing a fog light for my import rev4 and found these plugs sticking out under the ignition.. the bottom 2 I cant find any corresponding connection for them, the top one looks similar to a fog switch, or TRC switch. http://www.ebayphotogalle...
