Everything has arrived, but I have come up against one small problem. My headunit is a Kenwood KDC-X492. It is a single DIN. It is exactly 7 in. by 2 in. http://www.kenwoodusa.com/KDC-X492 My install kit is the Metra 99-4000. The opening on it is 7.25 in. by 2.25 in...

Ok. Thanks so much for all your help guys. Especially hope. Couldn't have done it without you.

Ok, finally have everything ready to go. I already have HU, sub, sub box, and amp. I am buying- Speakers- eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles, sporting goods & more at low prices Speaker Wire- eBay - New & used electronics, cars, apparel, collectibles...

I think I am just going to go with the KnuKoncepts Fleks kit. 8 Gauge Amplifier Installation Kit It has a 50A fuse, which should still be fine. Bigger problem is that it includes no terminals for the 12 gauge wire (my sub wire). I believe I would need 4 12AWG Spade Terminals, correct? And...

Thanks. I am going to buy a second RCA. Another question I had was on my amp kit. It looked like an awesome deal, but I found a review saying it was like 22 gauge power wire in an 8 gauge shell. That is the only review really on it. Could you guys recommend an amp install kit? I just want...

So we are talking 8AWG for the amp with a 60A fuse. 12AWG for the sub 14-16AWG for the speakers I can only find 16-18 ft. of amp power cable on kits. Is this enough to reach from the trunk to the engine bay on a Grand Prix GTP (medium size car, kinda long)? Then my complete list of stuff I...

Hi, I have a 5 channel Alpine Amp. I am going with a component speaker system up front (probably Polk DB 5251) and have a sub for my trunk. I want to bridge Channels 1-4, so I can send 120w to each of my components. What gauge speaker wire should be sufficient to handle 120w RMS (240w Max)...

That is actually what I was going to bring up- sealing the door instead of completely deadening it. So just cut out light gauge aluminum or steel, and screw them to the holes using silicone as a sealant? Would you recommend the use of foam? What would you recommend I build the baffle out of...

So use a DMM to check for gain? Would one of the amp install kits I recommended above be good? Maybe the Tsunami or Knu? I mean, in your opinion, is sound deadening worth it with my budget build? And what would you recommend as best bang for your buck? I have heard people getting good...

Thank you for all the advice so far! What is a DMM, is that a digital multi-meter? So just check to see how many amps are going to each speaker, and make it equal? I don't have any local shops in my area that have what I am looking for. I have Best Buy. I would love to hear the Diamond...

Srry about the double post!
