God be with you all.

Welcome bro! it seems like you already know what you want and know some good info, perfect start!

I take it to car shows, in arizona there are some every weekend.. some with trophies some with no trophies, but i go just to have fun. The little kids love it lol they will walk around it trying to count how many colors there is haha

Thanks guys the sticker comment made me laugh, i wanted a windsheild sticker so i got it.. even though the amp i got from them isnt working.. FML. Its chameleon paint.

I understood everything you said but that part

Thanks for the replies. Can someone answer this question for me though.. Should i try to switch locations of the ground?? If the ground is bad.. if i switch locations could it make it work again?

yeah a build log of that would be sick, im glad you got everything sorted out

i like that body style a lot, those in red are sick.

I know Alpine makes them, i dont know about the night vision one though.. or the price, but with your back up lights im sure the camera would be fine. You could try to splice in a light that turns on with your backing up and mount it on the bumper or something.. BUT check Alpine out. Here you go buddy http://alpine-usa.com/product/category/accessories

Jay cee - Would i have to buy a splitter Amazon.com: AudioQuest Y splitter - one RCA female to two RCA male 6" (15.24cm) cable: Electronics and plug the splitter into the amp then get a AUX Abacus Auxiliary Car Cable - IPOD-RETAUX - Buy.com and plug that into the splitter?

Ryan - Should i try to switch locations of the ground?? If the ground is bad.. if i switch locations could it make it work again? KU40- No protection light is on, correct. Am i understanding you correctly? - Do you want me to hook my amp straight to my iPod? Can you elaborate for me? where would my REM go?

looks beautiful, you are going to be moving A LOT of air my friend <-- thats going to be you once they are installed bangin' haha cant wait for the build log, have fun!

Nice!

...well i decided to say fuck the 8's and just go with a 6.5 componet set. It'd be a better fit for the doors. Its going to be a bitch figuring out what im going to do to make it fit.. i dont glass. I'll probably go with the Type X componet set. (SPX-17PRO) and a PDX amp. Unless you guys think the AQ comps &+ amp would be better hmmmm? - probably the alpines.

well itd be hard to find someone with the exact truck as me.. but if someone has a s-series truck or something like it feel free to chime in..

First off, i have a 86 ext cab s15 pickup truck and the equipment is in my sig. I hear matting them is bad because of the natural cabbin flex these trucks need to sound at best when dealing with SPL. Then.. i heard people gain from them with matting(for spl). I've pretty much heard A LOT of things... only mat the floor.. only mat the side pannels.. etc etc etc. So can someone clear this up for me? Im looking to gain some dBs while still having the natural effect of matting (music inside, noise outside)

pucking love this amp.

those are some good numbers haha

STINGER SVMB BLUE DIGITAL VOLTAGE METER GAUGE : eBay Motors (item 300390674786 end time Feb-24-10 15:45:43 PST) ebay has them for a lot cheaper + free shipping.

can you elaborate?

To avoid any confusion in the future, midbass and subbass are two different things. Think of midbass as middle bass, as that's what it is short for; and sub bass as below bass, as that's what "sub" means. Yes i know midbass and subbass are two different things. I just thought THAT guy was using a subbass driver for his mids, because i didnt kow mids went that big in size.

Are you looking for a component set or just 8" midbass? What exactly are you trying to do here? x2, good question? Im going to run some Image Dynamic Horns with my 8" midbass, depends on listening preference and what your trying to achieve. I only listen to rap and what im trying to do is just get some nice midbass that'll go good with 2 15" HDC3s & 2 AQ2200.

Are you looking for a component set or just 8" midbass? What exactly are you trying to do here? Im looking for a componet set with 8" midbass. I have a s15 so there is ONLY dash and rear pannel speakers, so im going to have to take my door apart and either cut my own speaker hole or get some sort of an enclosure. Im scrapping the dash and pannel speakers, so i am starting from strach here. Ive looked around and havent been able to find an 8" comp set. - well any worth having.

What models? - if you dont mind me asking. Also, are you going to have tweeters still? i want to get 8" but i dont know where the tweeters would come into play.. with the 8s are you getting them in a componet set? with crossovers and tweeters?

Sorry for the confusion, im wanting to use the 8inch for mid bass. I wasnt aware of there even being a 8inch mid bass sub, i didnt think it would go that big in size. I thought it was a sub bass sub being used for mid bass, as you can see where the confusion started. - So to recap would an 8inch mid bass driver perform good in a door? I am aware that each driver needs a certant amount of space etc. etc. etc. but i see mid bass speakers in doors all the time with no other enclosure but the door itself.. once again, you can see where i am getting confused.
