    Cool "New" XC Barina SRi on the Melbourne block

    Hey all... My name is John. I'm known on most forums as Tiger (forums such as Mobile Electronics Australia, Phoenix Phorum, RollaClub etc).

    I purchased a silver 2002 XC Barina SRi off a friend of mine (was neglected for 6 months at the front of his place) and I discovered the mechanics were still A1 on the car. The elements got to the roof of the car, so a new paint job is on the cards; but there's been a few mods done to the car already.

    Keyless entry/start
    Angel eyes up front
    Clear indicators
    Blue LED dashboard lighting replacement
    De-badged front grille
    Tinted windows (pretty damn dark)
    17" Enkei Wheels included with the car
    Sound deadened floorpan and rear guards
    Optima D34 battery under the hood

    BUT... I've had to get a few things sorted for a roadworthy.

    New windscreen
    Wiper blades
    Remove driver/passenger door tint
    Rubber mount for rear muffler needed replacing
    Bolt holes in the boot needed grommets in place

    The car goes back for it's final check on Monday afternoon and by Friday I should be good to register the car Click here to enlarge

    You have all been warned in advance... I have a dangerous car audio fetish. I'm a cabinetmaker by trade and a car audio industry supporter/enthusiast for over 12 years now, so I have a bad habit of doing crazy things with audio installations. 6 months alone with a Hiace saw myself and a friend completely destroy the interior of this thing. (nothing original left except the front seats! haha) Here's my facebook build logs of the poor Hiace:

    So once this Barina gets registered... it'll get audio therapy.

    Thanks all and I hope to be of some use on this forum, as I have tried to be with other forums I'm affiliated with Click here to enlarge
