      This is the old radio after the first Kenwood that was mount when I have bought the car.
      I have immediately removed the first Kenwood for another Kenwood KDC-MP6090R that plaied also mp3.
      Here a picture



      Now I have mount a Pioneer KEH-M9500RDS that is of the year of the car, 1993-1994 with a Pioneer 12 cd changer in the boot and remote controller, tomorrow I add some pictures.

        New pictures and upgrade.
        Yesterday morning I have decided to change all the led of the windows switch because Saturday afternoon I have bought at a big electronics fair here in Genova some high brightness led in red, yellow and green.
        I have also mount the radio, a Pioneer KEH M9500RDS with 12 cd changer and remote controller and I have completely mount central tunnel cover with tape rack.
        Yesterday evening I have decided to watch about water problem under my foot and now I must solve also this problem. I think that water come from fuse box or near fuse box.

        Engine bay now

        Tomorrow new pictures and upgrade

                I have also stuck the interior side of the rear door card and now I will buy 10 13 cm Focal Utopia woofer, 4 for every door on front and 2 on rear, 4 tweeter Focal Utopia ( 2 front and 2 rear) 2 10 cm midrange Focal Utopia for dashboard and a Audison VRX 6 channel amplifier and a Focal Utopia subwoofer, which dimension for you is good for the boot of the S2 Coupe?

                    Hi mate
                    I had a water leak in my drivers footwell...turned out to be a grommet for the wiper motor wiring................my car must have had its wiring pulled under dash board causing grommet to not seal on body work under the windshield.....................leaked a bit

                    Your car looks great

                    my 2 cents
                    cheers

                      Hello, for me in my S2 water leak is caused from bonnet cable seal.
                      In the next days I will check when I put the car out from my garage and I wash and drive it.
                      Thanks for your compliments!
                      Bye
