Fitting New Dashboard Speakers
My Pajero came to me with just 2 speakers mounted in the dashboard that I assume were factory fitted by Mitsubishi. The sound was very poor so I decided to replace them as part of my upgrading of the sound system.
Adding Some Sounds
I didn’t get the Pajero for posing around on the street blasting loud music out the windows, but I do like some music now and again. When I bought the truck I noticed it had a modern looking JVC head unit but I didn’t bother testing it or anything as it’s the last thing on my mind when buying a car. But when I got it home I was amazed at just how poor it was.
Pajero Books and Manuals
Being a Japanese import, the owners manual for my truck would be written in Japanese and would therefore be totally illegible to me. Well I didn’t get this manual with mine anyway, but I thought it would be interesting to have one - in English of course. I also fancied a Haynes manual.
What does this do?
The thing about my Mitsubishi Pajero is that it has lots and lots of toys and gadgets. Fine if you know what they all do but I hadn’t a clue. And it’s not like just having to work out the electric mirrors and lights on a ‘regular’ car, there’s all sorts of weird and wonderful buttons and switches to suss out. I don’t even know what to do with the four wheel drive selector yet.
The Big Day
I’ve been like a little kid waiting for Christmas this week. Driving my wife nuts I think. Just can’t wait to get my hands on my ‘new’ Pajero. It’s been about three years since I’ve had a new car but I can’t remember feeling like this for many years. The last ten years or so has just seen a steady flow of very good but boring family saloons. I think that this totally different type of motoring experience is exciting me in the way a new hot-hatch would have done when I was 17, or perhaps when I passed my motorbike test.
Bought My First Pajero
This is where the story begins.
After searching for several weeks (seems like years) I’ve just bought myself a Mitsubishi Pajero. It’s a 2.8TD Auto Bluemoon Limited Edition - 1995 with 71000km (44000 miles) on the clock.
