In this article, consider the options for tuning salon "KIA-Spectrum". This vehicle shows high features of functionality and safety. The proposed ideas of converting the exterior of the car inside the cabin will help make the car even more comfortable and beautiful.

Description of the model

Kia has released a recycled Spectra sedan in the spring of 2004. "KIA spectrum", the tuning of the cabin of which can be done independently, was based on the ELANTRA Parental Hyundai platform. The only engine was the 1.4-liter 2.0-liter ELANTRA engine with a capacity of 138 hp. The 5-speed manual gearbox was standard, a 4-speed automatic option was present. And the basic LX, and the highest level sedans were supplied:

• with standard front side airbags,
• curtain side pillows
• disk brakes on 4 wheels.

During the 2005 model year, the Spectra5 hatchback joined the line at the same level of the cabin decoration, as well as SX-TRIM sedan. Both came with EX equipment, but added a sport barcode, including a leather steering wheel, solid suspension and 16-inch wheels. Tuning salon "KIA-Spectrum" will allow you to get even more comfortable car. It is easy and does not take much time. Tuning Salon "KIA-Spectrum" will allow you to supplement the remarkable possibilities of the car.

How to Improve Salon

The car can be made even more cool! This will help the tuning salon "KIA-Spectrum" with their own hands. Before you begin work, it is important to explore the recommendations of the specialists. Each motorist sees its vehicle with comfortable and reliable. The choice of tuning options can be diverse.

The tuning of the salon "KIA-Spectrum", the photo of which is granted further, may be to carry out such a type of work:

• lEDs are installed in the trunk;
• tissue fabric chairs in the cabin;
• a comfortable armrest is installed;
• mounted air duct with care about passengers's legs, which will be placed on the rear seats;
• the steering wheel can be dragged with genuine leather;
• for a mirror located near the visor who protects against the sun, you can think over the backlight;
• the rear seats are equipped with a heating system;
• the illumination is installed at the bottom of the cabin so that the floor can be seen.

Illumination from below

If you set the backlight on the floor of the cabin, you can not worry about the loss of things in the dark. In the legs of the driver and passengers will be provided with soft lighting. To fulfill such work, you will need to armalary with plafones, diodes and plugs. When performing work, it is necessary to achieve the result when the backlight will be triggered after opening the door.

To do this, the backlight is connected to the central lighting system. Installation of the power wire is performed inside the protective lining of plastic. Then it is connected to the main wire, which provides the backlight of the entire cabin. His place is the front left counter. To obtain the mass take the terminating of both doors. The color of the wire is in most cases orange, but the use and white options are practiced.

Making seats warm

Heated seats - tuning salon "KIA spectrum", which can also be independently executed in your car. Then passengers do not have to sit in cold chairs. This uses a heating kit from the Lada Kalina car. But, according to the reviews of the masters, in such a system, the back is heated more intensively than the sidushka itself. More powerful specialists consider the "Emel of the Criminal Code". It has a power of 90 W. A similar system is "VAZ", but their power is already 70 W. Although this set is installed easier and does not require a significant fit under the size of the chairs "Kia".

If a little refine the covers, you will not need to drive the heating system inside the porolone grooves.

To install the seat heating system, the motorist will need a set of the following tools:

• wires and tapes;
• plugs;
• tubes;
• heat shrinkage.

A simpler way will be the purchase of finished cape. Then they are enough just to fix on the chairs. But it should be immediately noted that this method will not become more budget than the first option.

Also to create a special atmosphere in the cabin you can install a powerful audio system. Such work will depend on the selection of columns and the player itself. Then it will go much more comfortable and fun.

Thinking the wheel of the skin

Continuing to consider the options for tuning "KIA-Spectrum", consider another one of the options for converting the cabin of this vehicle. To create comfort, the driver can perform a steering wheel hawk.

These works do not occupy a lot of time and are quite accessible to perform your own hands. To perform a tug, you need to perform such actions:

1. Purchase the braid itself in accordance with the measurement of the diameter of the steering wheel, the length of the circle and the thickness of the rim.
2. Prepare the necessary tools, armed with scissors, priests, thimble, superclaim.
3. Clear steering wheel from dirt and fat.
4. Stay the braid, placing the seam at the bottom, in the middle of the steering wheel.
5. From the threads to make a stopper and sneak their superclaim.
6. Carefully sew a braid.
7. Check how reliably the threads were stretched.

After the work performed, the appearance of the steering wheel will change. It will become more solid. The main thing is that it will be more convenient to manage such a steering wheel, as the leather material is pleasant to the touch.

Let's summarize

Models of Korean "KIA-Spectrum" from the moment of their creation are constantly being improved and becoming increasingly functional. But many car enthusiasts, soul, independent arrangement of the salon of their vehicle. Therefore, they perform work on the interior hawk, the installation of the backlight, the rubber roaring with genuine leather. This car concern as a result guarantees more comfortable conditions for travels to any distances, which shows the KIA spectrum test drive, the tuning of the cabin of which was performed.

Motorists who are interested in changing the cabin of their "KIA" should pre-explore the recommendations of specialists. Then the result will delight the most owner of the vehicle and passengers who will have to travel in the car.

When buying no extraneous sounds in the Spectra salon, I did not notice, but from recently I began to torment unpleasant violets, coming from somewhere from behind. At first, I assumed that this is because of the subwoofer in the trunk squeaks something, but after a more detailed inspection it turned out that the reason was not at all in the subwoofer and the source is not at all in the trunk, but in the cabin, under the rear acoustic shelf.

It has long wanted to install parking sensors on my spectrum, but they all cost too expensive and I could not afford it. Recently went on the car market and saw Chinese parking sensors there only for 400 rubles. I read his instructions, it says that it is very sensitive, almost instantly reacts to an obstacle.

On the spectrum of electric windows, it is possible to use only after the ignition is turned on. In fact, this is not very reasonable, because other instruments installed on the car begin to work, and this is an empty battery energy. Some motorists solve this problem by joining a permanent plus relay to open contact. However, I also don't need a permanent plus on ESP, moreover, I wanted to come up with something new.

Many of you have heard what MD tuning car. I wanted to make it on my spectrum, and with my own hands, because 5-7 thousand rubles are asked for such a service in the car service. I read about it on the Internet, but I did not understand everything to the end. There was a risk to spoil the throttle damper, and it is worth 5 thousand rubles, so there is something to risk.

Already several months have passed since I have been removed to make the backlight of the door handles on the Kia spectrum car. However, I was afraid to start work, so I studied the theory. The theory of nothing, if it is not attached to the practice, so I understand it is impossible to pull further, you need to do business. I bought in the auto shop the most ordinary LED tape with a length of 50 centimeters and several meters of wire.

We looked at: 7655.

Perform noise insulation of the rear shelf and the arches of the spectra. First you need to completely dismantle the regiment from your place, for this you will have to remove the rear seat and throw it back its back. Next, we delete the covering of the rear racks, unscrew the attachments of the additional stop signal, we remove the pair of picons from the standard shelf.

I decided to modify the front seats of my spectra. From the tools used a round file, wrench at 14 and 12, lubricant, 4 bolts M8 to 50, 72 Wide washers M8, 4 narrow washers M8. Next, we have work directly. Remove 3 bolts, 1 nut, pull out the headrest, lower the back and remove the chair from the cabin. Next, unscrew the 4 bolts that hold the pillow of the chair, pull it out.

I got into my hands perforated skin of very good quality. I thought for a long time where it was used and finally thought up. The fact is that the color of this skin is perfectly combined with the gray interior of my spectra. It was necessary to think about how I would glue the skin and then one friend got me out, who not only advised me a thermopystole, but also provided it. So the skin is glued much faster and keeps very tight.

Any resident of the city at least once a week goes to the supermarket and returns from there with a variety of package, stuffed with products and other nonsenses. I used to packages before putting them in the trunk spectra, to tie them with each other, and then shove them into a floor mesh, which is clearly designed for a much smaller volume. As a result, on the way the grid flew from this mesh itself and everything that was inside was crumbled in the trunk.

Salon Kia Spectra, although simple, but sufficiently comfortable. Deep seats with side support allow us to conveniently get a person of any complex. Nevertheless, sometimes I want a salon to earn money, a little dispel its simplicity and poor. That's how it looks in the original.

Agree, not rich, although for a budget car, which is KIA spectrum, the cabin is quite good. Soft plastic and pleasant finishing fabric produce a positive impression, especially after Vaza masterpieces.

In short, if your original salon is tired of an aid will come tuning salon Kia spectrum. The photos that were found on the network will help you imagine what you can do with the salon.

You can replace the coverage of the seats on the skin. Salon Kia Spectrum will immediately look like an order of magnitude richer and aristocratic.

You can see from another angle. If you do not know in advance, it is unlikely that anyone would gues that in this photo tunned salon Kia spectrum.

Either work with the instrument panel. Clear plastic parts with film, or if you are a master to replace them with the whole. This is what can happen as a result of such tuning salon.

Well, or so, although in general it turned out the same. But what did two, then under the power and the rest of the owners of KIA spectrum.

Now, people have become more practical. For many, it is not so important to stand out out outwardly, becoming increasingly preferred internal potential. Kia spectra owners are no exception.

This publication is devoted to tuning Kia Spectra. We will talk a little about external improvement, but we will make the main emphasis on chip tuning:

External tuning

We will not offer you specific decisions, as some of them can do not like. But you will learn a few moments that will help you avoid problems with tuning.

The whole process should begin with you in your head. You must clearly imagine how you want to see the car. If you display all thoughts on paper, you will clearly see what will suit it, and what will be superfluous.

Next with your sketches, go to Tuning Atelier. If you break up to make tuning KIA spectrum with your own hands, then before you buy any accessory (body kit, spoiler, etc.), try it on the car.

There were cases that manufacturers of accessories intended for this brand were mistaken with sizes, and they had to be customized. Do you need it?

KIA SPECTRA chip tuning

Myths and reality

You probably know what chip tuning is - this is a flashing of the engine, that is, the installation of a new software on the ECU.

So, many motorists claim that flashing reduces the engine resource, because changes occur in its working process (the temperature in the cylinders increases, the compression ratio is increasing, etc.). And the details of the motor on such a mode of operation are not calculated.

With them you can agree only in one thing that changes the workflow. But these changes do not affect the service life, since the engines work not at the limit of possibilities.

See themselves, in different models there can be the same motors (from one manufacturer, with the same volume and details), but one will have a power of 100 hp, and another - 120 hp At the same time, manufacturers indicate the same mileage to which the engine is calculated.

Another thing, the aggregates of the transmission and the exhaust system - in our case, the catalyst. Here they are designed for certain power, so they need to be adjusted for new engine capabilities. Otherwise, the transmission and catalyst wear will occur much earlier, and their replacement can do in a round sum.

When it is useless to chip tuning kia spectra

You can say for sure, you will not achieve anything from flashing and in vain will spend money if the car has faults. After all, the installation of a new program only improves work, but does not eliminate defects.

In some cases, if there are malfunctions, flashing can only worsen the operation of the car.

Therefore, before making a chip tuning, send a vehicle to the diagnostics and eliminate the identified defects.

Pauls Limit Power - It is this program that the spectra owners are recommended. Have you ever experienced those sensations that come with second breathing? Here are the same feelings appearing after flashing - at least, this is how users say.

But, as we said above, you need to modify other car units. And at least you have to do is to install a lighter flywheel and a direct-flow exhaust system.

Well, all. We will no longer take your time, because it will be necessary for you to hold quality tuning Kia Spectra.
