Nissan NX audio upgrade

My younger kid NJ wanted to upgrade the audio in her Nissan NX so after some research off we went shopping to purchase a Kenwood CD player, Sony 2 channel amp and Sony Xplod sub in a kicker box.

I didn't take any photos of this particular install but you can checkout my Camry SV21 audio upgrade.

ALDI: Extension Cord Safety Lock $2.99







I bought a few of these, simple but very handy.

This Christmas will make three years since I installed a rain tank behind the garage and running power from the garage to the pump is still on the job list!

So I am using one of these on the extension cable – for now.

Also use one on the pressure washer.

ALDI: Home Automation Kit $39.95

  • Control your appliances remotely via radio frequency out of the line of sight
  • Great for turning on the lights before you enter your home or starting the kettle from the comfort of your lounge chair
  • Includes 5 receivers and 1 remote
  •  

    This was a fantastic purchase, I have four on outside lights around the house and one on the rainwater tank pump.

    ALDI: Taurus Electric Staple Gun $19.99
















    You need to be patient using this tool - it jams staples.

    To minimise this I found I have to break off some staples from each row, about 3 or 4 mil. As with any stapler you need to press down firmly to get the staples to bed down.

    Some people have had trouble obtaining staples for this unit but I had no problem at Bunnings.
