Avanza DIY (Insulating Firewall & Ceiling + bluelight)

[Islaw*Palitaw]

Sir Marfin,

Baka pwede mo ng masilip kung may thread yung parang abang for pull handle sa driver side? May nakakapa akong butas sa ceiling, pantay sa screw slot ng pull handle kaya lang baka walang thread. I remember gusto ni Pres na lagyan ang driver side. Parang kailangan ko din para kapitan pag nagpupunas ng roof.

Thanks!

Walang abang na nut, pinakita sa amin ni Marfin nung outing, butas lang talaga...

Nasilip ko na sir, kanina din umaga pinakita ko sa ACP na may butas talaga sya pero walang thread. Pero pwede siguro gawa tayong paraan jan.


DIY continue:




View from the passenger side.
You can really see how fit the material is.
(Note: inside of our avanza ceiling there is also gap or space between the brace and the hood)
After inserting it, final touch is fixing the 4corners of the material by fitting it to the gap or the space between the brace and the hood.


I wasn't able to cover up the whole ceiling (busy w/ ACP outing), this afternoon after the outing driving from bulacan to manila, i can really feel the different of my Air conditioned setup. On hot sunny weather i use to set my AC regulator to half and fan speed to #2, this afternoon fan speed #1 and regulator like 1/3 setting. Hmmm could it be because of the heat resistant material??

Any idea kung ang 1.5G ganito din kaya, walang insulation? Hmmmp masilip nga rin...

Islaw don't forget the step by step pics ha!

Definitely, malaki ang effect niyan, sir marfin.

Kaya nga nung ipinagawa ko ang bahay ko, pinalagyan ko ang bubong ng insulation. Malaking difference talaga!

Malagyan din nga ang Avanza ko (Sayang, ipinamigay ko na yung natira kong insulation). Great tip!

Hindi mo ba ba nilagyan sa likod? 14" lang ba dapat sa harap? Hindi mo na tinanggal yung dome light?

Sobrang dami ba ng mga tanong ko? Hehehe...

Next project naman sir yung likod.
14" or maybe alitle bit more 14.5".
Yung dome light hindi ko na ginalaw pati yung roofconsole ko.

Sir Marfin,

Can you pls confirm kung may sound deadening properties yung insulation na ginamit mo

[Marfin]

Eto naman yung insulation sa firewall ng avanza natin:
Sorry walang mga step by step dahil experiment ko lang muna kc akalako mahihirapan ako yun pala ang dali lang pala.
Although it looks one whole pero hinati ko rin sya tapos naglagay nalang ako ng 3M double adhesive sa mga corners para dikit na dikit.
Note: meron narin pala abang na mga pins na i belive para sa firewall talaga yan.






This firewall insulation available na sa Gtype AFAIK.
First i doubted na baka hindi makayanan ang insulator ng init ng engine pero na tested na nung nag ACP family outing to bulacan, na kayang kaya ng insulation material pala.

Sir Marfin,

Can you pls confirm kung may sound deadening properties yung insulation na ginamit mo

Yes. According to the salesman from ace hardware this material serves as a soundproof as well. I can tell yes too cause i found quieter engine sound while driving.

[Marfin]

Finally eto ung bluelight na sinasabi ko.
Nakuha ko lang idea na dagdagan ng blue light gawa ng built-in na bluelight din yung sa roofconsole. Tinap ko lang yung wire sa may doorswitch(serving as ground) and positive(kinuha ko lang any wire na kulay green w/ red stripe and i believe this wire is connected to interior light fuse.) Nalaman ko lang yun after na short ko sya sa body tuloy nawala lahat ng interior light and i found out later na kailangan ko palitan ang fuse (10A) buti nalang may extra tyo sa fusebox.

Close up. sayang nga dapat gabi ko pala i take ung picture para malakas ang effect ng blue light.

[_Qwerty_]

ayus yang blue light na yan.. baka pwede din lagyan yung mga pinto.. para pag ni open yung doors eh may ilaw.. lalo na sa likod..
