New Person! - Josh1994 - 30-05-2014
Hi Everybody,
I'm new to this, I have a black 306 d-turbo "well I think it is a d-turbo" 5 door, Im 20 and from the kent area, I have done some mods to the car just waiting for a grill and getting a bonnet either next week or the week after.
RE: New Person! - Jimbo - 30-05-2014
Welcome, love a 306 in black
RE: New Person! - crumpy - 30-05-2014
Looks good. I quite like lasers in this colour.
RE: New Person! - Mattcheese31 - 30-05-2014
looks nice, welcome to the club, not too sure on the lexarse lights, although they look better for being tinted . .

Welcome to the forum
RE: New Person! - 7057sam - 31-05-2014
Welcome along
RE: New Person! - Toms306 - 31-05-2014
Its a HDi LX (or possibly GLX), rather than a DTurbo, but looks good in black anyway!
RE: New Person! - Josh1994 - 31-05-2014
Thanks for the welcoming and sayings about the car guys, the Lexus lights was the first thing I got for the car, I had the car for nearly 3 years and nothing has gone wrong with it, I was going to sell it because of the insurance was too high for myself but now I am modifying it slowly, I didn't know the Lexus lights was tinted until they had arrived, on the add they didn't look so but thinking of going to the aftermarket L.E.Ds lights.
Hi Tom,
It is a HDI so I got it wrong lol, but stills pulls good.

RE: New Person! - Toms306 - 31-05-2014
DTurbo is just the trim level anyway, not the engine.
But that came with black and red/blue cloth seats...yours are the grey velour of the LX.
RE: New Person! - Josh1994 - 31-05-2014
Hi,
Im thinking of changing them to leather seats, I had seen one on eBay for £600 which includes front seats rear seats stearing wheel gear knob etc but possibly the insurance will go up
so will have to wait... I also want to say that under the rear seats there is a cable which I cant see where it plugs into, dose anybody know what the cable is? I can include a picture..

RE: New Person! - Toms306 - 31-05-2014
The cable under the rear seat will probably be for the CD changer. Unless someones previously fitted a sub and amp?
Half leather seats from the Meridian are much cheaper, in fact I've dumped 3 full sets now as couldn't get rid of them lol!
RE: New Person! - Josh1994 - 31-05-2014
It seems like a Peugeot make cable?, I had got fitted an amp and a sub but different wiring was used, I'm guessing that the seats doesn't effect the insurance?
how much would a set be as I got a five door and I'm guessing that they are different from a three door?

RE: New Person! - Toms306 - 31-05-2014
Yeah its for the CD changer then.
I've never even thought of telling insurance about changing seats for other OEM one, it doesn't add performance or make the car more attractive to thieves. Its up to you whether you want to declare them I guess.
Yes the 3 door seats are different. But ALL Meridians are 5 door so theres loads of 5dr half leathers about.
RE: New Person! - Josh1994 - 31-05-2014
ahhh, I cant do nothing yet as it is my dad's insurance atm, next year I will start so I can change some stuff then...

You can slap another set of seats in it. No ones going to pull you over and go they are the incorrect seats are they. If they are standard to the 306 variety no ones none the wiser. Theres a full set in scrappy near me for sod all. Was going to put then in mine but ive got other stuff to pay for atm. Btw loving the black. The lexus lights are not to my tasting though
RE: New Person! - Josh1994 - 31-05-2014
Where abouts are you based, I also want to get other stuff first, and I'm guna change the Lexus lights for the aftermarket L.E.D lights.
