Everything Looks killer!!! I love the center console, can't wait to see it installed. What seats are you guys thinking? Probably smart to run the extra speaker wire even if you don't use it at first.smile.gif

"Everything Looks killer!!!" As do your 10's in the doors, Hoping to get the carpet in soon, then we can get a good look at it.... Thanks!

Looking great.

You guys are busting ass. With all the work put in to this one, I bet your son has learned a ton and will take good care of his new baby.

Nice job guys!

We Thank You!!! Yes my son has learned alot, now it seems more guys are showing up that my son has told he can do this or that to their car.... "Son, we gotta work on your car." says dad. But it is really cool helping out with other peoples rides and sharing our love for the auto & audio world!

OK, Got the headliner installed. Made some mods on the B pillars cause the factory seat belts are out, will be using a set of 4-points. The B pillars will make more sense once I get the carpet and rear seat installed. Did a quick mod on the rear speaker mount. Factory speakers were 6X9 and we liked the 8" coaxial that O2 Oxygen offered so we made them fit. Once the rear panels are reinstalled the back will look factory, but have a little twist. Stay tuned for more.....Lots more comin' :woot:

As many others have said, I think it's awesome that you guys are doing this together. When I was growing up my dad only came to one of my competitions and missed my run because he was outside of the expo building pouring a beer in to a Mt. Dew can since no alcohol was permitted on the premises :drink40:

I feel like everyone else, I wish that my father or even stepfather were interested in any of my hobbies. You guys are really being patient and it shows in the quality of work we get to see :drink40: I'll keep watching in envy and be eagerly anticipating the finished product :popcorn:

Like everyone else has said, I wish my father had been into audio when I was growing up. (well, at least getting older, do we ever really grow up?) The effort you guys are putting into this project will really pay off in the long run, and the attention to detail is incredible. Your son is a very lucky young man. Keep up the good work! :drink40::popcorn:

Nice install !

Keep working and posting pics. We love that !

I did not understand what you put in the beautiful center console, all that knoobs to do what ?

BTW : 1) what car is it ?

2) You should run some extra wire to your front doors, just in case you want to run the front speakers active some day. like someone already told you !

Good luck

No I don't think we ever grow up. More responcible maybe, but grow up NO! Yes I think attention to details are important and making modifications sets something apart from another and gives a personal touch. Plus it's cool to hear someone say how did you do that?

Thanks for the reply and the questions.... All the knobs?????

8 switches- 2 for controlling the 2 sub amps(my son wanted to be able to run the 10's independent from the 15 and visa-versa.

1 for the rear veiw camera

1 for the power antenna

1 for the LEDs we are adding

2 for fog lights and driving lights (body kit has large front bumper and lots of holes to fill)

1 for the headlight and foglight HALOs

2 Bass knobs for the amps

Yes we will be running extra speaker wiring, I think we have decided to try going active on the front speakers.

What kind of car???? In the title of the post- '95 Mitsibushi Eclipse RS 420a w/5speed
