My complete audio install (56K warning)

[einworb35]

clean install bro. did you consider putting the tweeters on the triangle piece kinda where the sidemirrors are? i wonder if it can be installed there cause i wanna put mine there when i get a set

Didnt really think about that location too much. I knew I wanted the tweeters on the door. theres a thread somewhere about other people installing the tweeters at that location. Try searching

Yup you and me both. ETA is unknown due to the tragic natural disaster in Japan. I'm first in line for the H800 as well.

Do you guys realize they don't make the 9887 anymore? I bought mine from woofersetc.com. WOW was that a big mistake. It took a major dump on me.

if you are interested in the alpine 910 or 900, i know for a fact my shop has 1 or 2 900s in stock i could look into shipping it for you if your interested bro, or i can see what we have laying around for alpine and pionner double dins.

I have the w505. It's sooo laggy. Waiting on the 910. I buy my stuff through my installer. Warranty is mucho import.

Srsly? I didn't know that, although I would probably still get the deck.

I missed out on getting a new one for $100 locally........, but I am still hoping to land a new one for a good price.

Re: My complete audio install (56K warning) ***update amp rack 6/5/11

just wanted to post some updates to my install. Also wanted to throw in my new amp rack that I just made with how i went about it.

got my head unit working! paid Alpine $90 to repair (totally worth it for this unit)

made ROUGH template for amp rack to go against the backseat

here is the cut out on 1/2" MDF. 3/4" was pretty heavy and after going back and forth on what type of wood and thickness to use im happy with 1/2" MDF. Yeah, and i know shape of the rack could have been more symmetrical, but whatevers...

here it is carpetededed. got a yard of gray carpet for $7 more than enough to cover this. save the rest for future projects.

not sure if anybody cares, but fyi i used this for adhesive. never used it before but it seems to hold up pretty good.

mocked up where to screw in my 2 amps, ground splitter, and distribution block and test fitted on the car to see if i might run into any issues. looked ok

equipment mounted down, time to wire it up!!!

here it is, wired and mounted to the back metal pieces. and RELAX! i cleaned up the wiring after i was done

here is a back shot, also to show where i bolted the amp rack too. I used 1" long bolts with washers and hex nuts on the other side.

done! sub box in! OMG i have cargo space now!!!

lastly i changed my battery terminals, nothing great
