147 Rear Hatch Glass by
Ross
Hi All
The rear screen of my 2002 147 seems to have spontaneously shattered some
time today! On closer inspection is appears to have broken from the inside
out, rather than had something thrown/banged against it from the outside.

156 door speakers by
Ppelectron
In previous discussions on here, it was said that intermittent front door
speakers in the 156 were often due to a dirty connector between the door wiring
and the stereo wiring. Can anyone tell me whether the connector lives in the
door or is it behind the trim in the footwell? I don't want to take...
