My apps, itunes and even calls can be made from the stereo. meaning I have satnav, pictures, contacts etc etc here is a pic of what it is like:

Group: Forum Members Posts: 10, Visits: 68	Yeah my thoughts exactly. I think the door panels are going for £5 or 6k a piece or something stupid. Plus with how I'm doing the front components this will give a better integration doing a one-off part. Hehe and yeah dynamat. Silly ipad autocorrect! Since you're familiar with the car, any thoughts on the front boot tub? It's just a huge piece. Mine's essentially just a compressed mesh composite it looks like, it's not waterproof (which is stupid since its open to the elements and the front windscreen drainage goes right on it) and isn't particularly nice looking. I'd like to recreate it in carbon fiber. It would keep it light, but have enough structural support for mounting the amplifier in it, but again, it's such a huge piece. I'm not sure how well vacuum infusion would work. I assume technocraft uses prepreg/autoclave. And they charge $4000 for there's, and I'm not sure ship to UK.
