I'm really looking to buy ones already in a box. I'll offer $300 and see what he says. Doesn't seem all that high compared to other stuff on craigslist here. Also seems like all that stuff new is around $650 not including the box.

My rig got broken into recently and my subs got stolen, 2 old(boob cone) JL 12w0s in a JL box. I've been checking craigslist for new subs but not really up on prices since I was happy w the old ones so haven't really looked at car audio stuff since then. I found 2 JL 12W3(believe it's the...

alright, yeah I just wondered that when I crank it the front will sound amazing but then the rears will sound like crapola. I have the fader set just about equal so unless there's a song that's recorded in 4chanells(though almost all were just left/right) would I even notice? Eventually I plan...

should I run all 4 with the amp or run just the fronts and let the HU run the rears? The Alpines are rates for 50w RMS.

My rig got broken into and subs got stolen. They left the amp cause it was bolted down w security bolts(Fosgate 360 2chanell). There seems to be decent deals w people selling subs and amps together so what do you think about buying new subs w amp and using this Fosgate amp to run the door...

Does anyone idea what this might goto? I've had it lying outside the shop forever and have been trying to sell it on craigslist but don't have any idea what it goes to. I've never even seen a setup like this. Any ideas???

had one other guy helping. Also I used the hinges from the donor vehicle so they're fine.

So my doors got screwed up so I bought a parts vehicle and swapped all 4 doors over cause the new one had power windows/locks and leather trim. For whatever reason I can't seem to get them lined up. I've got them pretty close but they just don't close right like the original ones. Any idea...

I just received my big case 200amp mechman alt. I appears to have a bolt for a separate ground, do I run the ground to the battery neg, the engine block or the ground?

My buddy picked up a pair of JL 12w6 subs in a sealed box with a Kicker ZR240 for $300, Killer deal, wish I could have bought them. The seller said the amp was 1,000 watts. Could he have been thinking of peak power or is he just full of it. I read online that they could be modded to put out...

I want run just one big one. What's wrong with the $8 ones? At the yard by my house, you just remove the part yourself, and they have a standardized price list and everything is dirt cheap, except a big block engine NOTHING is over $50. If a vehicle had a powerful, reliable alternator stock...

thanks but are there any vehicle that came stock with beefy alternators. The local pull-a-part charges $8 for an alternator no matter what it came from so I'd like to try that one before I fork over several hundred.

My montero has a 75amp stock alternator. While I don't have a very extreme system I plan to upgrade soon as well as add a winch plus I already have some 4x4 lights. I'm looking for one with around 200amps. It DOES NOT need to be a direct replacement, i have access to all the tools to make a...

get a steam cleaner.

Well I wouldn't put any money into it unless I got the title. It's a 3 on the floor Also there were some newer parts lying inside the cab which made me wonder if it hasn't been sitting there that long and maybe the previous owner had it running but just got sick of it and let it there. I...
