Been looking at this site for a few weeks now, and now that i finally have my new Stilo I thought I'd better post something!

I want to run a couple of cables from the right hand side of the dash, down to the footwell, and under the carpet/doorsill back to the boot - I want to install a gps module & antenna back there for my PDA.

My problem is how to access places to run the cables - they'll be really thin, but I want to do it as neatly as possible. When I had my punto, this wasn't a problem, as all you had to do was take out a few screws, and the plastic bits on the inside of the doorsills came out, exposing a nice little channel to run the wires down.

As far as I can see, there's no obvious way of taking these up in my 3-dr Stilo, and getting the cables past the back seats is going to be a nightmare because the side panel (with the speakers in) seems to be one complete piece.

Any advice would be much appreciated!!!

Sorry if this has been covered in a previous thread - had a search but couldn't find anything.
 
hi fiat guru here,
Trust with a 3 door its gona be a fustrating job, but as the same as the punto all you have to do is take out the seatbelt bolt and then all the screws including the one at the top by the seat belt. lift up the bottom half seats in the rear up.
Now lift the front sil off should be easy,
with the back plastic you dont take the whole trim off you jst lift it put something in there to hold up (block of wood) thn route your wires
any problems please PM us :D :D
 
Sounds pretty obvious now you mention it. I'll have a go later, when I feel like braving the cold!

Cheers!
