Parcel Shelf

Post by Mike_Parr »

I've read on the web, that you can buy a parcel shelf, for corsa obvo, with the speakers built in? (Like a better finish then just wacking in some off-the-shelf speakers on there)
Although it is relitivily easy to put some 6x9's in there, it would be better if it was built-in.

Anyway, does anyone know where I could get one?

Many thanks,

Mike. :)

just to add the info their technically called stealth shelfs... try google to find suppliers of them or alternatively use ebay. They are usually made out of wood and acoustic carpet and look awesome bt u will be paying the best part of £60 for a good one

Blimey, £70 odd!

Another question:

Whats a good price for some tinted rear lights? There's some going on eBay for around £50, but sounds to much :/

How about making your own stealth shelf, surely not that hard to make, use internet to find out how too do 8)

Tbh brand new tinted lights are around the £50 mark, try looking at the classifieds on here and other corsa websites like corsasport for some second hand ones - could ghet some for around £30 if ur lucky. tbh they aint too hard to do yourself tho - just get sum tinting spray and make sure u leave ur reflectors visable to avoid the heavy hand of the law lol

and yeh there are plenty of how-to tutuorials around for making stealth shelfs and tinted lights if ur feeling brave =)

I think Paige1992 has it on her red corsa, i think the bottom one does look better, but will look on your thread and see what it looks like in the thread.

it's off www.corsacentre.com and £14.99 with £2.75 delivery. If you can find it cheaper somewhere else please tell me ;)

Also thinking about buying some gas lift bonnet struts, chomed, looks quite smart, £14.74 (included delivery) from the same place.
