Step 1) EVERYTHING out...
Step 2) Clean it all & replace/repair where necessary
Step 3) Everything back in

The OE stereop was a Philips RDS Headunit.

The Pioneer removable headunit was in the late spec regular Phase 2 GTT's i believe?

Nice looking car Tommy...

All down to choice of course but you wouldn't catch me riding around in some mint immaculate Raider with the original Philips stereo in it..... :cool:

Yep, I agree about the engine, a bit of spit and polish and he'll be a beauty.
One question though - Why is the GTTurbo badge in red? :sad2: Blue it ;)

A resto project from a guy in the South of Holland...

Yeah i had this trouble when i was restoring mine so i got round it...

Get some liquid mask from a model shop together with a couple of decent paint brushes whilst you're there.

Next stop your local motor factors for some PR449 Renault Sports Blue & Lacquer.

Paint over the shiney face of the "Renault 5" with the liquid mask & after allowing it to harden spray the rest with your colour.

Renault 5 Raider Badge - DONE!

or paint the lot and then use a flat block and a little fine wet and dry to bring it back to bling tastic
