Hi All

New to the forum :)

Any recommendations for specialists near Sheffield/Yorkshire or surrounding areas?

Also any recommendations for car audio as I have the standard stereo on my 2004 Zed and it’s not the best!

Thanks in advance.

Source Sounds in Sheffield are well known audio installers, they’ve done some pretty top end custom installs as well as selling all manner of car gramophone paraphernalia. :thumbsup:

Yes mate, he's the one that serviced my engine and did the wiring loom swap and re map.
He will also be doing my DCT gearbox service as mine has the usual leaky sump gasket

Fairly sure that’s the guy Darren Sloane uses and highly recommends too Mark.

A veritable glut of good guys to pack from from this neck...... :lol:
