cheers mate

how do u take out the back seat btw?

the parcel shelf is part of the body, I assume you mean taking off the cover with the speaker grills

to get at the cover and remove it you need to take out the back seat

first start with the bottom of the seat you have to remove the two bolts that are on the outside, it can get tricky after that as there are metal brackets that clip in on the inside of the seat, you kind of have to push the bottom seat while also pulling up, when you get it loose you will see what I mean.

the back of the seats have another two bolts that will be exposed when you get the bottom off, once the bolts are off then a case of pulling the back up and out

then unbolt the child restraints and the cover will slide out

nah i didnt mean the hole covers i ment the hole parcel shelf so that i could put in some 6x9s and some moulds

but thanks for the help on removing the seats mate looks like im gonna have to do it with the parcel shelf still in there

thanks for your help mate

no dramas,

hmm I'm interested to see how you go with 6x9's, I installed fusion splits in my old gtt but they were the same size as the factory units and from memory if you want to fit 6x9s you might have to widen the holes in the parcel shelf with a dremel and make custom brackets or drill holes, the factory units use a plastic bracket that screw to the shelf hopefully if you remove those the hole left behind will be big enough

when you get around to it you will see how the parcel shelf is part of the bodywork, I'm sure someone has done this before, just maybe need to search on the forum for examples

good luck though :)

cutting a rear deck for 6x9 is a defectable offense in SA, which would require lots of work to fix back to stock

plus 6x9 speakers dont sound as good as 6.5 inch in a decent brand anyway so why bother cutting the deck up?

my 2c

yea but if u go out and buy some speaker moulds u should need to cut nuffin because there would already be holes from the original speakers

i think the moulds look so much better than just the speakers sittin in the shelf anyways but thats my opinion

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
