The Rabbit TDI Project
Part 12: A bunch of Little Things
Or: stuff worth mentioning, but not spending too much time discussing
1. Hourmeter
The truck is a diesel, diesels need hourmeters. It's some unwritten law.
My gauge is hidden in the passenger side dash speaker location.
2. OBDII connector
Located in the driver's side dash speaker location
3. Subwoofer
VW pickups don't have alot of interior space, but VW didn't think of that, and left
all kinds of open space under the dash. Seems like a good place for a subwoofer.
4. Speakers
6.5" full range, located in each door
5. Door Panels
6. LEDs for the car alarm
located in each door by the lock pull.
7. Keyless Door Handles
rear handles from a 4-door converted to work in the front doors.
8. Power Door Locks
made necessary by #7
9. Quick Access Front Bumper
A reasonable use for hood pins...
stay tuned...
