lookin good

update

just did little things today. Wednesday ill get the amps in and then ill figure out what im doing with the left over mat and finish the doors.

gota get done by friday...

Looks nice, great build save the matt till you hear it may finds some spots for it the doors look good.

Nice work

Nice job!

thanks now if i can just finish up this week... im never doing such a pain in the ass amp rack again.

i was messing around with some bolts to do the new speaker terminals for my sub box... turned into a big mess some how so i think im redoing it... wat a waste of time

finished up alot of little things today including the amp rack...

tomorrow is the last day for my install, all i have left is sealing up the left door and plug in some xover settings, gain etc...

im taking a drive to visit my gf 200miles away so ill have some time to give it a good listen.

nice install.

going to go active myself soon.

thanks good luck with your build

i got it done! finally have my tunes back. i set some basic xover setting and gain and so far im liking it. it will nice to set TA and get everything dialed in. unfortunately i dont have pics atm. il get some up when i get home monday or tuesday.

been really busy and havent had the time to post in what feels like weeks.

ive been playing with xover and add TA. im very impressed with it! i got some rattle goin on with the door panel that i need to pin down.

im still planning on getting a hybrid horn box designed by thumper. im playing around with the idea of rebuilding my sub into a 10 or 8... and walling off the trunk.

as far as the amp rack is concerned i really like the concept but im not sure if its the right idea for my car. i need to rework it alittle so it hugs the bottem of the rear deck. as it is right now i dont have enough clearance to move my box under the amps.

if i can get more vertical clearance i will go head and have thumper draw me up a box.

other option im thinking about are false floor, amps in spare tire well, dropping the sub all together and going 3 way, or etc

---------------

right now ill just take care of the immediate problems.

ill get pics up. there not much to look at but maybe it will help if i get some suggestions.

ok im going take some pictures now.

the things i need to do yet are:

1. get the amp rack to hug the rear deck better.

2. fix rattles in the front doors.

3. fix rattles in/around the center console/dash

4. consider purchasing hybrid horn box design from thumper (if i can make the space im really interested in doing it for fun)

5. dress the rack up (wrap or paint)

6. sell the pg's to my bro and get some AA carbon mids and some tweets. (or mach 5 mids if i cant afford the AA's)

7.... tune tune tune

first we got pics of the doors sealed up.

unfortunatly i did this in the cold and the clay i used around the woofer baffle in the driver side door didnt hold up.

heres the tweet and woofer with the door panel on.

i may try the tweet up in the factory location but they are sounding very good where they are now.

hu.

the trim piece that would normally hid the sliver mounting sheath thing will not fit due to the factory molding.

i plan to take some black spray paint to cover the exposed silver/gray color.

this view is equivalent to looking back from the front seat. however i positioned the camera lower to show the exposed endcap of the 250.2

this is why i want to get the rack more snug to the rear deck... however if you sit in the seat and glance back u cannot see the endcap.

here is the basic layout of the rack before mounting.

here is a view from the floor of the trunk.

sub and box looking sassy

haha

the terminals are bolts... if ur wondering why they are off to the side its because i want to add the another pair and wire the vc's to them separately. need more wire first...
