Re: [alfa] water in GTV-6 doors & speaker installation

Agreed, people who fit aftermarket equipment are pathetic. Especially
exhaust and tyre fitters. I have had suspension bent (164), crap melted on
my alfettas, as it is apparently imposable to build a good exhaust for a
European car. I own a 24V 164 super which has had spliced into what is a
very complicated wiring loom, a mobile car phone, stereo and cruse control.
So in this case I have had three knuckleheads attacking the loom.
