I would look at mounting the intercooler up behind the crash bar as much as you can.....
Where do you live?

Re: Fitting a jvc double din into a b5.5
Cage is the worst bit....so that's good. May not need the thin surround.
You may have to cut out the block at the upper centre part of the double din section....
Some double dins won't sit all the way in otherwise

Re: Chinese head units - any good?
Can stream music on mine....plus control phone from head unit as in forward, back, play/pause, stop etc.
Blue tooth hands free is good depending on road noise.
Mine brings up recent called, phone book etc. So you can call by name from the screen.

Re: Fogs....
Just confused as to whether it's to just make you more visible like the rear fog....
Or to allow you to see road markings upto a few metres....
Just wanna know what I should be achieving lol.

Re: NASCAR'S Tony Stewart mows down fellow Sprint car racer.
It looks to me like the first car that slowed down caused the second car to take avoiding action....possibly not seeing a guy dressed in black on a dark track....
Terrible tragedy! !
