My alpine HU has got a USB interface, but for ages its been located in a not so convenient place, inside the centre console, because it fell in there one day and i couldnt be bothered to get it back out..

had a USB cable knocking around for a while, which is for screwing into a PC case but i thought it'd do well in the car:



take 1 handbrake cover and cut a hole in it, about the size of a USB port. make the holes for the screws and you end up with this:



which looks like this in the car:





Also decided it was time to give my Android tablet a better place to live, other than the windscreen:





stripped down the windscreen mount and chopped some bits off and resorted to hot glue gunning it into place, and **** me if it wont come off now.. also gave me much more room to play with behind the screen cable management wise.. the 12v charger for it is soldered and hardwired into the car on an ignition live, so it will charge whenever the car is in use..

it has GPS and Bluetooth, which makes for a perfect Satnav and OBD interface, also is a great media player, and a funky looking clock lol..

Also decided to paint the engine cover:







its an engine cover, so i wasn't fussed about prepping it fully before anyone criticizes the shitty job i did on it.. its going to be covered in oil and shit soon enough, and its having some lopped off for the IC pipes when i buy a hacksaw..


new things that went on...
quickshift:



new rear brakes:



new clutch:



New gear linkages:



and now i have decided i was going to paint the amplifier.. i've bought a 4 channel amp to drive all the speakers, and i think that the existing Mutant amp will still be used for the sub..
