Guess How They Secured Your Bluetooth Speakers

Speaker hung by just a piece of cable tie above your brake pedal.

One day this cable tie will break, drop on your foot during driving ......and use your imagination what happens next.

good to hilight out. thanks bro

since now we know, we can improve it

We certainly can but the disappointment lingers when you expect professionals in the industry should have known better than us, the layman.

I hate to generalise but seems that this attitude is pervasive in our country. No passion, no professionalism, no pride in what they do. Sometimes I wonder where mindset this came from?

U meant the speaker at our leg level? Mine appear to be mounted onto the dash area...

Bro, could you take a pic of that for awareness?

I wouldn't mind to, if you say you had a bad back. But for normal people, its easy enough to peek under the driver side dashboard. Just remember the flashlight:lol:

Cable ties are stronger than most people think. You'll be surprised how multi-million dollar defence products are secured using those.

Agree that they are strong. But that is immediately upon use.

Give it time, temperature, humudity, rain, shine, and these are cyclical...in my experience....they become brittle and will break off.

My sentiments exactly

K-family its better you show us your picture cos I believe most of us here is not cable tie.

nah.. cable tie is good resistance against heat/cooling, wet or dry..

Mine is definitely not secure by cable tie but a small speaker mounted at the lower dash near the wiper controller.....since u r so unhappy with the ways yr ride was built up, why not just drive to CnC and get the person in-charge to look at it and demand an explanation..more effective than putting across in the forum...kind of silly to debate on the reliability of cable ties

Will DIY, as I distrust their workmanship. The idea of a forum is to make others aware of issues which may or may not be of a concern to owners. If it does not concern you then you don't need to do anything.

a picture really tells a thousands words
Not everyone here has receive a car yet, majority of us have not.

That's the BT Speaker? Hmmm...

went to check, nothing as described above near my brake pedal...

True, picture tells a thousand words. K-family, I'm curious about it so it will be better if you post your pics and let us have a look

wait K-family tell u this

I wouldn't mind to, if you say you had a bad back.

cable tie in a 40+K product is a no-no. imagine scotchtape to secure your 600+ handphone cover(can take it anot?). I sure F people one kekeke. Do give the service center a call so they could arrange the installer to rectify it for you.

Aiyahhhh....OK lah.....

When I free I take pics for everybody's benefit. OK?

Thx K-fam, eagerly waiting for your pictures.

Haha..Interesting thread.
Makes no sense to locate speaker at brake pedal.

ok chill guys....TS only "ho sim" telling us...maybe it is a case by case basis.
Maybe the next meet-up we can arrange to DIY and fix it properly if u guys want.

ohh ya.. the rearview mirror + bluetooth are setup by local vendor and not C&C directly.. so must be that local vendor trying to be funny =)

Seriously im wondering whats that speaker use for?cos whenever i use bluetooth the sound/voice will come out from the pillar speakers..sounds really puzzled whats the usage...

Thanks waypoint for doing the necessary.

Lack of web knowledge makes life difficult for a dinosaur like me.

I'm now at Pandan and told the SA about the A pillars missing a bolt, was told the A pillars are secured by clips and not bolts... hope this helps....

I think they would have tested this, i dun tink it will drop.
Last time my vios also gt such loose cables hanging near brake pedal, if really wan good quality i think must go for continental cars which is much more exp.
Anyway im happy with what i get for that price, u win some u lose some no complaints.

No problem, K-Fam! My pleasure!

You are right that the plastic trims are also supported by clips. There is sufficient support by the clips alone but bolts are there when they ship the car out. Don't be conned by dumb lazy predelivery people at C&C.

At the rear 'C' pillars, the screws are present but front pillars they have gone AWOL. I narrow this down to when they installed the bluetooth and IU.

If you are not worried then should not be a problem.

But I cannot accept such bad attitude and workmanship. Speakers secured by cable tie to a wiring harness is a no-no as this would put tension on wire harnesses.

World crass workforce indeed.

Thermometer or temperature sensor to measure cabin ambient temperature for Climate Control? No ioniser feature that I know of in our rides unlike Nissan.

BR,
w a y
