Alpine and MB Quarts? Same as me! Quality

bengie · 31-03-2004, 17:29

oh bugger it, paid about 370. oh well, keeping my local and very friendly audio shop in business. but i got a pair of mb quart psc213's for 90 through the shop though, so that was a bonus.

andy, can you get those din adapters for screens?? they fold out on a sprung bendy thing, they are made by vdo dayton i think??, and also a clarion screen, there's a newer one(i think its a 633 or summat) with a speaker and an IR reciever so that i can control my sat nav

Hi all

Had my new Black Magic Octavia Vrs for just over a week now. Got it mainly as an every day car and to tow my Westfield MegaBusa to track days. Rang Jabba on Monday but they were busy and have not rang me back yet :-)

Looking to ditch the oem HiFi soon Going to replace the head unit with one of the Alpine Ipod aware HU when they are released.

Also I want to replace the speakers and was wondering if the MB Quarts pop in in place of the OEM speakers in the front doors of an Octy Vrs

Cheers

I wanted to have chat to them about towing with a remapped car. I have been told by others that they are very busy will perhaps try them again on Friday !!!!

the mb quart components i bought were not a straight swap, the tweeters were bigger than the standard ones, only by a little though. as a tempoary measure i have fixed them in the same place as the original ones with ties, they also seem to be a perfect tight(if that makes sense) fit againt the door so they aint going any where anyway, i think mb quart do a range of speakers that are designed to replace oem stuff so they might be a perfect fit, speak to your local mb quart dealer to ask. mine is on this number if you cant find yours 01865 769911
