    Sub Zero Ice SS3322....?!

    Probably rubbish... stick to a known brand. Alpine, Sony, Kenwood, Pioneer. I just got another Alpine iDA-X305s, amazing bit of kit.

    The brake upgrade, you need to get the 312mm carriers from an S3/TT/Fabia VRS/Cupra, then use your existing calipers change the discs and pads to match the 312mm carriers. My old FR 150 was very loud spool and dump at low revs, much quieter at high revs, probably because the engine note...

    Driver's control panel - replacing?

    I had mine changed, should be easy. You'll need to re-sync your key though. Guide; http://www.seatcupra.net/forums/showthread.php?t=303301&highlight=key+sync#

    Time for new tyres, help please.

    I'm running Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta all around, they are fantastic tyres. Excellent grip in wet or dry, they have come down in price too, they about £100 a corner. </ben>

    Cupra r 225 or fr tdi 150???

    I thoroughly enjoy my 150 FR, its a sad shame I have to sell it though. Going into hospital for a wrist reconstruction (Rugby Injury) and will be in a cast for 3 months, so that and I need the funds for a house will be one very reluctant sale. Its an excellent compromise of power/economy...

    Are these wheels from a later leon?

    I have them on my 150 FR 54 plate. Totally butchered one the other day... not amused. First curb mark to any of them and its demolished, along with the bottom of my bumper... damn high curbs!

    Decent tyres for Leon FR

    Christ, I just had a look online, the price has bombed on these loads! Can get them for ~£100 a corner now.

    Decent tyres for Leon FR

    I did look around pretty hard too. Get almost zero wheel spin with a hard launch in my stock FR 150 TDI.

    Decent tyres for Leon FR

    Im running Vredestein Ultrac Sessanta, very good piece of kit. Loads of grip and especially good in the wet. They have a strange tread pattern which makes one side look like they're on the wrong way, but they are good tyres. Not cheap mind ~£550 for a full set.

    Best Stereo for Leon dash

    I'd have another one without question if I didn't have a double-din dash now.

    Best Stereo for Leon dash

    The Alpine iDA-X305 or X305s is the best I've seen by a long way, and it is the best H/U I've ever used.
