Re:My 01 Jimny, another Norwegian

nice audio stuff!
i added some extra speakers in the rear and that made a massive difference ( www.danbp.org/p/en/node/104 )
my exhaust silencer is looking a bit rusty and crusty as well haha.
and proper tow points are a must, they really are.

I have midrange and tweeters up front, rear speakers and a sub in the boot love the sound of it and it's surprised a few people

Now i run the ground zero set in front, and two rear speakers. I bought two 4” real small woofers also but i dont know where to put them :lol:

Mini box in the boot? I have a 12" sub in the boot

Nice upgrade! Happy with the sound now?

Had a quick look through this thread again now, the car really getting good!
So jealous of youre seats

Would like a little more bass, but its good as is also
The seats is the best investment for sure!

Easiest to get hold of in Norway is the 2004 Jimny part leather seats. They are way better than the 2005-06 seats and the rear seat folds down to flat. Mads your seats looks even better though...
Think I paid 2500 for my seats and sold the old ones for approx. the same.
2009 and later Jimny seats also good, and leather steering wheel from those as well.. But not so many Jimnys around to pick from.

Youre seats would do the job for me no doubdt! Up to 2004 that is, i.e. pre vvt models?
Not too easy to find any good Jimny parts in Norway, to few sold..

Getting ignis seats is expensive for us, mine came at a price of around 5000nok delivered. I see that there is a set on ebay right now btw!

No only the Norwegian 2004 models, sold in high numbers. The earlier is actually 1999/2000 models all of them i think.
The 2004 have color coded mirrors and roof rails, AC/leather/m13a (no VVT) and a bit more extra.
2004 seats have better side support as well.

Then next time with better seats is 2009 or later i think but too few of those sold..
2009 and later have Jimny stitched in the seats and is full leather.

Edit: If you look at: www.finn.no/car/used/search.html?make=0.811&model=1.811.7142 You can see what is available regarding year models.
Sorry for hijacking your thread with this Mads

New exhaust is in. Taking the bumper off, and a lift makes it pretty easy.

Its gettin pretty badly rusted around the body mounts.. im just gonna keep patching it up as long as I can. Too bad I cant take the MOT’s myself anymore, next one is in may :lol:
I think the parts from bigjimny comes this week, so perhaps i can do some work in the holiday

Got my caliper carriers today, started planning a upgrade to the front brakes!
