...should be the kind of thing people will be saying about my S2 by the end of the week. Less likely is that they will be saying it about the driver...

It has gone in for a respray today, and will be fully re-trimmed including funky green leather gaiter and chrome knobs by the end of the week.

I will put up pics as soon as the beutification is complete.

In the meantime - two questions: Anybody want to recommend a pair of new speakers that fit? And why has no-one got any suggestions for my buzzy gearstick thread?

Get 6" or 6.5" Full Range. put in. A decent make. Infinity, MB Quart, Pheonix Gold, Rockford Fosgate or Helix.

If you are going to amp, go components.

How much is the respray costing? I need to get the nose and bonnet done on the Griff soon.

I had 6.5” infinity speakers in the S that were very good.

Check it’s not your gear knob, often the plastic bit on top buzzes, replacing mine stopped it.

Full body respray quote was appx. £1500, quote for nose and bonnet was £250 - quite a difference.

That’s a bit of a trek, I know of a good body shop reasonably local to me but not sure what they are like with fibreglass.
