Welcome to the IHoP
It is ever so disturbing when my 5 year old female cousin sings my humps.

Oh the wonderful world of gaypal and egay.

Amprack
Paid someone to laser engrave it, circle on one sheet of plexi, logo on another sheet. Then one sheet has green LEDs drilled into it, the other has red LEDs.

Amprack
I was thinking the same exact thing about the grills, I just don't have a router As for the wiring, I would pretty it up with grommets and such, but I have very little room to work with down there. The bottom ends of the RCA tips are 1mm from the bottom of the rack. Thanks for the LEDs, they worked out great

Thanks. For security reason, I probably will.

Looks like I'm gonna have to pass on the soundcard for the time being Jim, since I have to buy a new battery now. Sorry

It's actually 2 sheets of plexi One with red LEDs, the other with green.

I went to listen to it for the first time, and my battery was dead. O joy. I'm gonna check tomorrow to see if I can fit a kinetik 2400, which is complete overkill for my application but who cares (btnhfan had one for sale for $200, which is the only reason I might buy one) Still debating if I should spend a lot on a nice battery or just get a cheap interstate one and spend the rest of the money on an RTA/MLS system. I didn't have any dimming with my old crappy batt, so I'm not sure it's worth it to buy a nice one.

Sorry about the Saran wrap, it's still on there cuz I'm not quite finished yet and I dont wanna scratch the plexi. As you can see, the wire mess is visible at the bottom of the amprack, but I'm going to cover it up tomorrow. My car battery died so the LEDs/cathodes aren't very bright, and this is during the daytime. Lastly, my kicker 8's were too deep for my rear speaker slots so I had to make a new grill. Didn't feel like spending more money on fiberglass, so I just made something outta wood. The chicken wire behind the grill cloth isn't as visible in real life. Before: After: I'll get more pix when it's completed.

Another sign that I am destined not to have car audio: I got the amps plugged in and went to turn on the car...and the battery is dead lol.

Welcome to the IHoP
If it doesn't get better, I'm just gonna stab it. And thanks for the text message Tom. You must have been drunk

Welcome to the IHoP
You can see the wires if you're looking at a downward angle. If I keep the cathodes at the top, there probably won't be enough light shining to the bottom to even see the wires so problem solved. They'll probably be visible in daylight though. I could make the wires hidden, but that'll be a last priority. Seats don't go up, but I don't care b/c the crap under the seats looks cheap so I'd rather keep it covered.

Welcome to the IHoP
wtf mate? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Install did not go too well today. I didn't wanna b1tch and whine about it but I guess I will. 1) I went to the tint shop to fix one window because the corner had a bubble I tried to fix and I ripped the tint. So they fix it, I come home and am tightening a bolt and the rachet hits that same window and makes a rip in it. 2) It took me almost 2 hours of modding to get my rear panels back on because the extra deadening I put on kept the panel from snapping back on. 3) Some tap screws that hold the amprack up are stripping. 4) Wiring is too short in some areas and it's gonna be a B to get more slack. 5) I made the bottom of the rack where the wiring comes in ugly because I thought it wouldn't be visible through the plexi...turns out it is visible. ETA 2 more days tops hopefully. All the problems are fixable, it'll just take some time. The engraved plexi is sweet though, I'll try to snap some pix tomorrow. And I must say, 5% tint on the back = near zero visibility at night. I do love my tint though.
