No as the fuel pump is behind the drivers side and on the top of the tank so you could not mount the speakers in the position that you would want.

That looks well and a good idea, I just like mine so far back so they are not as noticeable. how are they attached though?

Doc that is a great kit, my bro fitted one to his starlet and they are great. They are both the full Honda S2000 start buttons, not copies though. Get one from tarmaceater on ebay, thats who both mine came from.
The hazards are just hanging behind it all, just in case for MOT etc.
I dont know how it was fitted, wasnt my car at the time and i wasnt allowed to play, but as you can see, i have it sitting deep, not flush, so it matches the dials.
Hope that helps

Yea thats what I was thinking and thought it was a big no-no but I doubt the tank would come that high so you should be ok.
I considered industrial velcro but my boxes fit perfectly in that wee space, its great stuff

what the opionion of this they are wired all the way though the car.and i can have roof up or down
does anybody now if you can cut out hole to drop speakers in the bulkhead, without moving petrol tank?

hmm, what diameter are these?
its inspiring... need to think about it, but i can see something working with some "large" oval alpines in a large backbox which bolts down using the windbreaker location on its "front" and some (c)lips or magnets or velcro to stay in place at the rear of the box....

:idea:

Couple more pics of my midnight blue B. These were taken after it received a wash on Sunday.

Re: SHOW OF YOUR BARCHETTA Photos wanted

I love that colour

Don't think I've seen one in midnight blue before. Is there two different shades of blue then?

 

[nicholasb]

Re: SHOW OF YOUR BARCHETTA Photos wanted

I think there's an aqua blue (lighter)

Re: SHOW OF YOUR BARCHETTA Photos wanted

Not too keen on blue, but it's a B so I like it

I am surprised by the shine. Nice surprise though. I take the pics from the front on the left side as its the B's best side. The other headlight is misted quite badly (next job). When I have done more work I will post interior shots too.

Re: SHOW OF YOUR BARCHETTA Photos wanted
