What have you done to your Elgrand today?

Picked up a bed for my son and the owner absolutely loved the silver Elgrand! Thought it was virtually brand new and nearly fell over when we said it was from 2003! Ended up taking some pics for himself! lol
 
I removed the rear right seat track/rail, associated trim and the seat belt (e50), Christ It was heavy! Just the track in the wall weighed over 5kg. Next up is remove the centre bench seat, tracks and belt then measure it all up for carpeting.

Finally plugged a Bluetooth receiver into the rear rca plugs as a temporary solution.
Now wondering if it's worth messing around with a double dinn install, as the DVD player in the glove box plays UK DVD's anyway.

I'm not going to bother.
Chromecast to the RCA and I've pretty much got everything I'm likely to ever need.

Picked the youngest up from Uni accomodation on Pitwines close, opposite Sainsbury's.

Almost chanced the multi-storey down the quay at lunch time, but at 6'3" clearance I bottled it so went round the corner to one a bit more generous!

Not far from where I live! That multi-story is a NO-NO in an Elgrand! The main shopping center (Dolphin) just about gets away with it - if you avoid the lights in the middle of each level :D

Thought I'd get this topic underway :)

It's quite popular on many car forums and is a nice way of highlighting something new you've done with your Elgrand be it a modification, a repair, general maintenance or just took her out for a great drive :)

Just add to the thread as and when.

Who will start us off? :)

Led light speakers? Tell us more :)
 
Also I gained massive jdm scene points lol

Gave up trying to make the existing screens do or play anything to entertain my kid on a long trip, looks like its an iPad on the back of the chair as usual. Cant wait to get a double din in so we can play music etc etc etc.

Do you have RCA connections in back? If so that should be the easy way to get it done.
 
Yes which I plugged a Dvd player in but its in black and white and it comes and goes!

It's black and white because screens are NTSC and dvd player is probably PAL, you can get converters to go from PAL to NTSC, a lot of people have just plugged in a media player (like cyclone etc) and this will play whatever format you want, and link up to play music off your phone etc.
 
Oh yes should have realised. Cyclone in a box waiting to go back as we don't have any android devices at all! Should have read it properly before ordering. Doh!
