October 27, 200816 yr Author lookin good what are the last 2 pic of?and are u goin to be runnin the 2nd batt in the rear?and u might want to do a ground for the batt up frontIt is grounded
October 27, 200816 yr Author i ment with some of that 0 gauge. or did u take care of that I was gonna ground the back battery with the 0 gauge when I ran them parallel, I see what you mean now though! I will take care of that today. Thanks for the advice, almost missed that
October 27, 200816 yr Is this for outside niose or to keep the SQ inside better? I just roll it over the sheet metal right?Just clean up the inside of the doors-use a mild de-greaser on the sheet metal, wash and let dry then apply the mat.. I put one layer of my on my 05 then covered it in Cascade Spray on liner.The difference in mid-bass was very noticable and the reduction in road noise as well.The transmission hump could use a few layer's if your's is anything like mine was. I had terrible road noise down the center of the car.. I removed everything and deadened the whole car.We were trying to find the best place to run the wire, so we took off the windshield wiper and cover to see if we could get anything through there. We ended up having to take the battery and tray out, then we could see where the main wire run was. That is a pic of the windshield where the cover was, I wi[ped it down before I reinstalled itMy 6-S-hatch had a handy blank that unbolted that was the perfect size for 00. I unbolted the piece drilled it out and rebolted.. it was directly behind the strut tower on the drivers side.**If you're needing the dash install piece and wiring harness I have mine outta my 05, I just traded off the car 3-weeks ago so I've got a few left-overs from it. the dash piece has a light scratch from my carless removal...
October 27, 200816 yr when running the battery in the trunk u will need to fuse the positive run twice like sofront batt. +...(lessthan)18inches....thenanotherfuse 18inches from the rearbatt+fyi
October 28, 200816 yr Author when running the battery in the trunk u will need to fuse the positive run twice like sofront batt. +...(lessthan)18inches....thenanotherfuse 18inches from the rearbatt+fyiI need 2 inlin's on the same power wire? Or are you saying an inline to it then another when I branch it off to power the amps.
October 28, 200816 yr Author Why 2 fuse's on the same cable? I will order another one. Think it will be ok for a week or so?
October 28, 200816 yr The other fuse acts just as the front would. if there's a short in the center of the car it stops the current from the back battery..I.E. Front Batt__Fuse ________*short*___________fuse__Rear Batt__fuse__Amp if you don't fuse the rear batt in that manner a short can potentially burn up your auto. in the case of a center short ast illustrated both front and rear fuses will blow and save you from burning something up.I know it seems redundant but better safe than sorry...

Sounds good, I will order one today, here are a couple pics, lost the cam and it was freezing last night so we just got the amps to pre fit. I Should be getting th HU today so I will get all the wire hidden and get everything fit in.
October 29, 200816 yr Author Is that battery in the rear sealed?It's the stock batt, threw it back there till I decide what I am gonna get.
October 29, 200816 yr make sure you put that batt on/in something, otherwise any acid that escapes will be eating up your carpet.
October 29, 200816 yr I got 5 runs of Kicker 1/0 through my firewall. It all runs down the center console and into the trunk. If you have an automatic look for the white plastic piece on tnhe firewall. That is where the clutch would come into the car, take the cover off and drill a big hole with a grommet, run your wire and call it a day. I can get pics if you need.

Looks pretty clean... I have been looking for my camera for the last 5 days or so and I hbave no clue where it is.. So I'm gonna have to borrow one. Josh For a sealed box those 2 10's beat.
November 10, 200816 yr you need to finish your build and find a camera Edited November 10, 200816 yr by RobClay
November 10, 200816 yr Author you need to finish your build and find a cameraLoL, I wen't out and bought another camera today to shoot the pics and I need it for class. Soon as I get back to the house I ran across my other one. LoL, Yea I will get the pics up asap... just getting cold as hell around here. I am a southern country boy... I don't like the cold, and since my wreck I can feel it in my bones LoL. I got a video of the 10's in a sealed box... but it just sounds like fartin when the bass hits... I AM A try my other camera.. I am waiting on my box to come from BJ so it may be a while on the 15's but I will be making another amp rack for the car when I get it... I hope I can fit the 15's in there with out having to comprimise the box size... I may end up with 2 12's later down the road for comparison.Any advice on the video?
November 10, 200816 yr its just the way the camera picks up the sound, all are different. and that sucks about the camera thing lol
