Juste few questions ?
did some one as ever think to install a 2 ways manifold mufflers.
or like I did to install a usefull little gloves compartment instead of the useless car radio .
and to install a little keys holder by the brake handle
and to increase ( few inch's)the size of the boot.

The empty car radio slot directs rainwater onto my left leg very accurately! I contemplated a small container to help Thames Water ameliorate the water shortage <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/innocent.gif" alt="" />

Thanks - I thought that the leak was built in to reassure Aero owners that Morgans were still quirkey. Coincidentally Walter's car (he was at St Trop) had the same problem as yet unresolved <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" />

I actually find the headunit (radio) quite good BUT only because I have it hooked up to my iPod. Were I only using it for the radio, I would get rid of it! As it stands, I'd like to upgrade the speakers as the Morgan supplied units are VERY poor but even then, it really only sees active use when the top is up <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/thumbsup.gif" alt="" />

There is method in this... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/innocent.gif" alt="" />

I use the BB for e-mail and text and the mobile for those times that I do not want to lug a full size Blackberry around

I didn't because if I'm honest (and please no one take offense <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> ) but I thought the stock unit was a pimple on the face of a beautiful woman! I supplied my own Pioneer unit, which real brushed aluminum to match the dash.

IMHO, it looks much nicer and suits the interior.

As with the BMW gear knob, they are the two areas of aesthetic weakness (should that read laziness?) on an otherwise well thought out car.
