Bonny, 2002 S60 D5

just realised i hadn't done a gallery for Bonny my daily car. I'm not meant to be spending any money on her, but a few mods have slipped thru the net. She's just coming up 182k miles & still does amazingly well on fuel, averaged over 66mpg on a recent run

been messing with the HID's on Bonny today, got HID's everywhere now (dipped, fogs & main). Also wired it so the foglights come on with the main beam now





PS she's now on 187k miles

even more lights on Bonny lol

the headlights take a while to warm up, but yeh they are bright once they get going lol. Thanks i do like the floor lights, i've got 2 more but not sure what to do with them (think putting them on the rear doors might be OTT)

Nice daily driver
the lights look good, the volvo door lights seem to be catching on

Those lights, where, what and how. I want some

Have a word with rob they're on his pics of them at ace cafe meet I'm sure he will show you when he sees you too

there about £13 off ebay LINK

as for how, on an 850 its very easy as they've already got the red door markers you can wire them off. P2's are harder as you've got to run an extra wire into the door (bloody stupid plug & sockets on original loom don't help either)

done a few little bits & bobs on Bonny


mirrors were badly scratched so sprayed them grey


if S60R's can have an R on the grill, i can have a D lol

i wasn't happy with the pressure from the last box, so i made another to try. Got a double & a single instead of 3 singles now

i've never been impressed with the sound from the 12's in the S60, & remembered a little trick i did with the 850's old install of putting a port in the ski-hatch to let the sound out so thought i'd just open the hatch to see if it made a difference on the S60. Opening the hatch came across the a problem, some idiot (me) had put an amp over it


as i'm only currently using the 1 amp (which happens to be the one mounted over the ski-hatch) i decided to move it


so now the hatch can be opened, you can't really tell what it is behind it & has improved the bass quite alot so i'm just going to leave it as is now

The search for more bass is the same as the search for more power

NEVER ENDING

at one stage BT had 3 x 15" subs, think the bass amp was kicking out 4-5k watt on its own. I'm not a fan of 12's but 15's won't fit in the S60

That's awesome!
  
Everyone wants more Bass!
