Anyone done the R56 Channel reverse?

There are 4 ways of approaching this mod;
1. Cut the wires, & join front to rear, rear to front.
2. Remove the pins & swap their positions - take care that they still lock into the holder
3. buy a plug, socket & set of pins & sockets & take a channel swap lead so you can just plug into the factory loom without modding it - I sell the pins etc - http://www.newministuff.com/new/shop...uctshow&id=771
4. Buy a ready made channel swap loom (All pins soldered) then you can have the job done in under 5 mins - http://www.newministuff.com/new/shop...uctshow&id=745

Mike,

What is involved with this "5 mins job"? Specifically, can you access the necessary wiring and plugs without removing half the dashboard or door trims, etc.?

And is the increase in bass really worth the expense and effort?

Thanks,
Del

This might be good, as I’ve always had the base turned down to negative as I always felt the front just “Farted” excuse the description. But my best friend is one of the top Marine electricians in the UK and he laughed at the £45 for a as he put it for a washers cost plug. Unless I'm missing somthing.

If it was £2-5 I’d be tempted.
