2003 X2 "Restoration" Thread

[brucemac]

@brucemac - Nice, ever thought of creating a true 'remote' IE, attaching the Fusion to something that floats so you can take it with you out in the lake when swimming ? They're waterproof or water resistant aren't they ? I have one right now by the throttle, thinking of getting another.

Thanks. Yeah, thought about it and I am going to buy a spare. They are IPX6 and IPX7 rated, but not sure if they float yet. Will play around with it this weekend and see what the range is.

New Fusion ARX70B wireless remotes.

Looks nice, I have a concept in my head of replacing my old tweeters with USB ports and 12V outlets in a future project. One in the glovebox is a good idea.

Audio updates are done!!!!

Can I get first right of refusal on those racks LD? What type of shape are they in? Mine still work great, but would love to have a spare set, depending what you're looking to get for them.

Absolutely. Sent you a PM

Those are the mythical "bazooka" racks. They were only on the 2003's I believe. I have a set that will be up for sale soon, but I would not recommend them. They really only fit wakeboards. I fyou need racks, I would recommend the Roswell's.

What board rack fingers are you using brucemac? Are those stock or did you adapt newer ones? Curious as I need some board rack fingers for my 02 x30

I can hardly stand it, the waiting! Hopefully early next week. I think these look fantastic and the matte finish is going to match the new OEM badging perfectly. So stoked.

Same for me. Mine is naked

My x14 did not have the foam on mine, so I dont think it was added in later years from the factory.

[prostar205]

I have the same one. From the factory in 2002, they came with foam insulation glued to all four sides. Mine has flaked off over the years so a few years ago I sanded mine completely off. I would not put any insulation back on unless you plan on using it as a cooler. I'm sure the insulation does act as a sound barrier but I did not want to deal with it coming off again and ending up in the bilge. I use that area for storage of small items like gloves, first aid kit, garbage bags, etc...
