Bonjour félicitation pour le travail effectué je voudrais savoir si vous pouvez me fournir le lien pour l’achat du kit pour le coffre électrique merci d’avance
@@PETFLIXFR Hi there! Yes it will void the warranty for the sound system. Especially if you put an amplifier and do what I did. If your central locking system or the window mechanism brakes ,that has nothing to do with the sound system ,it still covered by the warranty. And also the 7 year warranty does not cover everything on the car for 7 years. Paint and other things have less years. That’s fine by me. You can not have everything in this life.🙂
it is supposed to be a plug and play tailgate kit and you've made it more complicated than it should be. have you read the fitting instructions supplied by the manufacturer? firstly, don't drill any holes through metal, it is not needed! factory warranty is gone if you do that!... secondly don't need to cut any wires... thirdly, never tap to the fuse box like the way you did and why did you run the power cord to the battery? This is not the way recommended by the manufacturer. too much prep work and you are like dismantling the new car and you don't have to remove the bumper to fit the kick sensor. And by the way this is one of the cheap low quality tailgate kits and kick sensor on the market, there are better options, at least with no drilling thru metal. And you don't test the anti pinch system like that.. It's not a Tesla. Honda CR-V has sensor strips along the edges. To test this kit, you can stand under the tailgate when closing, it hits your head or shoulder, and it will stop and retract.
@@hwaccessories Hi there. Yes this is a cheap kit with no instructions included. This is how I did the installation. For anyone doing a DIY install check with the kit supplier regarding the warranty. I recommend to be installed by the dealership to avoid any warranty issues from Mg
@@magoulasfabrications7766 I haven't fitted one yet to the MG4 but I do have a fitting instruction from the supplier for MG4 (seems to be the same one that you've got with a golden control box). The instruction is written in both chinese and english. Yes you are right, please consult MG regarding warranty if DIY.
You're back!! This IS what I wish the MG4 had stock.. I doubt I can even start to work on that mod though... but given your mods I'm sure you're good to go. Btw where did your sub woofer go ? I could not see it when you opened up the trunk, I can only see your amp now Where is the link to the kit also please? Oh and bless your gf/wife for sticking through all this time to record this footage Edit: Nevermind not the gf this time haha XD Question: Would any of these steps change if it was a left hand drive (UK) MG4 ? And is there any alternative to drilling and using the rivets? I do not have this rivet where I live :(
Hi !!!! The subwoofer is out because I sold the box to a very nice guy!I also built his sound system!Now I will upgrade mine little bit more. My girlfriend is a hero! I do not think is there anything different in the right hand drive just make sure if the fusebox is still at the left side! If you do not have rivets you can just make o hole with a screw and a nut. Just make sure you put some paint and silicone so is not rusting 🙂.
Magoulas, you did a damn good job. I can only agree with my colleagues here: Why didn't MG include this as an extra and optional on their list. The trunk is overall the biggest drawback on this vehicle, far too heavy but there is room for your solution. Thank you for your time to document it, stay tuned and hope there are some more ideas that no one expects so quickly!
Awesome job! Looks very complicated for a novice like me. Hey, can you provide a link to where this kit can be purchased from. I am in Australia and have the same MG4 (only Right Hand Drive)
It depends on which country because the hour payment is deferent from country to country. The hours that you need to pay is much more than the equipment at least in Norway that I made this.
Did you really use tape to cover the wires? I would recommend you buy marine grade heatshrink. 3 to 1 with adhesive coating. The glue in the heat shrink will create a water tight seal and protect the wires from moisture. 👍
Don't forget to add the remote bass knob. Make sure your rca cables are not being crushed by the rear seat frame. You might try running the rear door speakers off the factory amplifier so that you can retain fader control. Rarely do you want the rear speakers as loud as the front.
Very nice job! The underhood fuse holder should always be a waterproof design. If not, corrosion can be an issue. The factory music source has built in DSP (EQ curves, time delay and maybe all pass filters) to make the factory speakers sound better. When you swap speakers that can make the new speakers sound worse, not better. Typically you would remove all the factory DSP to get back to a flat signal and then apply new processing. An aftermarket DSP that can do both will greatly improve sound quality. Or a device like the Kicker KEYLOC can remove all the factory processing and then a traditional DSP can reduce everything.
Looks nice! I was thinking about to get 19' wheels, but I'm concerned if this affects the comfort. What is your experience with the wheel is the comfort the same or had it changed?
Thanks! It makes the car much more sportier in driving and also the cornering is more aggressive with more grip! I love it but you do have to be careful in the put holes!!
