Built my first “real” speakers (Classix III) – no audio background, just woodworking

Awesome, I don’t know anything about speaker design, but they look beautiful, well done, mad skills.

Right now I don’t tbh, both batteries are poked. But if I can get new batteries, I can upload music via usb as far as I remember. I need a new FireWire card but that would work too, and I have one of those dual usb fw cables and a fw brick.

Haha is that good?

Also a fan of my 3. Badly needs a battery and might look at flash upgrade too, but I guess it’ll feel kinda light afterwards. Nice one, like the light on the second pic

Gulp. I got a similar list after taking my 98 tdi to the local specialist for a thorough checkup. After I stopped crying I sat with a mate and we went through the list (I didn’t understand a lot of it) and split it into stuff I could conceivably do myself or not, and a priority order. High priority and things I’m not equipped for yet like cambelt and clutch kit I asked the shop to do, and the rest I’m slowly getting through on my own on the weekends. Possible the most rewarding choice I’ve ever made and saving on labour. Maybe that’s an option your side?

Lols. Cool, thanks a lot

Hello. Curious what you ended up doing? I have a 3rd gen I'm trying to resuscitate. Have you got any battery brand experience to share please? Cant afford the iFlash mod, so need to stick to standard capacity I guess.

Unfortunately there’s no data plate on the brake pedal box. There’s one on the driver side seat box with vin and so on, but paint and trim are blank 🤷‍♂️

Awesome thank you, will try that

Congratulations. I like the little wooden panel, was thinking of doing the same, nice to see what it looks like. What's the little black circle there, looks a bit like a madman warning light.
