    2006 Lincoln LS build log

    I loved the LS since they came out in late 99. Bought my first one in 2005 and put 100,000 miles on it before trading it in on this 06. Just over 48k on the odometer now, only had 28k when I bought it. Not bad for a 10 year old car. The sound is great. I know Kicker isn't high end but those...

    Driver door interior. Marked the holes for reuse of the factory wiring pins. Driver door damping complete. This one was more complicated than the passenger side but turned out well. Check the driver depth for possible clearance issues. I knew the kickers were shallow going into it...

    Not any deeper than factory 6x9s Sound damping underside of deck. I spent a lot of time in the trunk. Damping installed. No pics of the factory foam under the deck. Had to cut it a little but everything fit back together well. Routed the speaker wires from amp to subs and crossovers...

    2006 Lincoln LS build log

    I wanted to share my install. Goal was to keep it looking factory and clean as much as possible. Car started as 2006 Lincoln LS with factory NAV. Pioneer Head unit was installed last summer using the factory wiring, factory amps, and wire harness connection. Removed the trunk NAV system at that...

    Rules ****

    I have them hosted on imgur but wanted to imbed here rather than link to the imgur album. Makes the post more interactive. I have not used photo photobucket in 10 years.

    Rules ****

    I have over 50 images to post of my 2006 Lincoln LS build log but this forum limits to 10. WTF? I'll wait until I can post from PC to make it easier. Cheers!
