  2. hi dan ive got avo evo adjustable suspension kit fitted to my mk 4 cab , personalyy i wouldn't by them again id buy a set of koni or another brand , they rust baddly if you dont keep them covered in greese then they use metal height adjusters wich also rust so making it impossible to s#adjust the ride height, ordered new ones and they come in black plastic so must be a designe fault, and when you attened the car shows do you ever see any one from avo no stalls no one to ask advise from, maybe im the only one that thinks like this , but thats my advice to you from experiance with avo. hope this helps. andrew f40 cab

  3. hi everyone just found this kit on ebay, looked intresting, now they say that this is a rieger wide arch kit and cost's £2000, ok the price sounds right but that kit doesnt look like mine , how many wide arch kits did rieger make correct me if im wrong but i thought they only made the f40 one that looks similar to this. if intrested please ask questions as might not be origanal rieger kit. rieger cabriolet this is what the rieger f40 kit looks like. mycar.jpg looking at the rear arches behind the doors the intake vents look different.

  4. im sure if your speakers are higer wat than radio they wont distort, its the other way round if your radio ids putting more than they can take distortion is sometimes caused by speakers not fitted properly, ie not secured down tight or the pannel there attached to vibrates, check condition opf speakers for any rips or marks then check how well secured they are and if there is alot of movement in the pannel. possible use dynamat sound proofing. try these first could save you buying new speakers. if this dont help go with davers idea. lol, need higher than 150w speakers.

  5. when i installed my subs my spare wheel bay did the same mate so put dynamat inside it, no more does it rattle! as for cuting and welding it take it out totally, thats whats happening to mine next year as ive got 18" alloys and the spare wont fit in so wasted space and getting modified exaust done anyway.

    if you cut it anyway and make it smaller will your spare fit in anyway? might as well take it out.

  6. hi mate , i've got 18" on my mk 4 cab, lowered 45mm, but ive had wide wings put on, the only problem that you might have is when on full lock it will fowl the suspension components and catch on inner wing easy to overcome with some spacers though is there any way you could try one , to make sure.
