The funny thing is people say more about themselves with comments like that. I think the admiration shared on the forum is a more accurate representation of what people think.

I'm curious as to what negative comments there were on your first class creation...you're right to ignore though

Good to know. Which dash speakers did you get?

well after having refitted the crossovers it seems i've finally got an issue with the harness from the head unit. Visually looks fine,but some loose connection somewhere that i cant identify because sound to the LHS speaker is scratchy every so often. Sprayed contact cleaner on them but i'll probably get a new harness just to rule it out. Looks like the head unit CAN actually power the crossovers comfortably. And of course i broke the thin plastic piece going across under the head unit cage yet again...

Good info, thanks. What would then be the best way to set these up? I think the crossovers i have, (diamond audio, passive) might not be able to be powered effectively by the head unit

useful info Cressa, thanks.

in practice is this actually detected ie does the sound appear muffled and low down or is it still quite clear? Audioscapes are angled upwards to perhaps this helps? Perhaps a bit subjective i suppose.. What i'm looking at is removing the amp and just running the speakers off the head unit, which tbh is likely to be adequate for my needs. If things change, i've got some amps i can use as required, or i may just get an integrated amp/subwoofer unit for the boot. That said, i'd be interested in suggestions here. Especially while the dash is in bits! Thanks Hasan

If you fit just 2,3,or 4-way door speakers (and no dash tweeters) does this mean that a crossover is no longer required?

@Cressa, did you not have the thermocouple anywhere on yours? I'm wondering if it is interconnected at all and if not, i'll just bypass it

Thanks for that. On mine, the thermocouple runs across and then towards the expansion valve, then disappears into the mastic

Actually you could be right about the routing - I'll check again tomorrow and post up a picture. So you don't have that thermostat fitted? I can't even seem to identify it on the Diavia wiring diagram tbh

Thanks Philly, i'll have a look. Cressa - good to know and a good suggestion, i'll try that instead of looking to fit them at the front.

On the right side of the passenger undertray. The thermocouple just routes round to the bit covered in black mastic

Fan fitted back now, seems to be running well! This id the broken thermocouple connection on the thermostat which I'm wondering about

So here's my set up with the cables for the abs relays coming under the air duct. But there's no apparent area to fit them.properly
