Aye. Love the car, had 6.5" Pioneer 3-ways in the front in my GXE, and 6x9 4-ways in the back. BUT, that was trashed, and I never got the speakers out. So... I need to buy a whole new set, and just crimp em to the standard HU harness? I doubt I will add any amps later on. In the meantime...

I got the factory speaks, and amps. All are in excellent condition. Just bought the car from a guy who was the original owner. 1993 Nissan Maxima SE. Now he had an older model Sony HU wired in there with a scosche harness and OEA-4, you all know what that is, the Factory Amplifier Integration...

I have the wiring harness for the power and speaks, BUT! for the Antenna... My connector is round (I don't know who has a non-round one..) and has TWO prongs within, and of course the OEM stereo accepts the two prongs. The Pioneer HU has only one prong.. centered and the diameter of the port...

I have already a Scosche NN1490-B wiring harness. Bought it a few years ago, think i got it from cardomain.com and it was for my car so they said. Is this comparable to the metra you quoted?

Thanks everyone, and thanks Nova for the model # on that dash kit. Got crimpers and all that other good stuff. I was taking a good look at my own power input... it looks archaic. Im not up on elec standards. Anyone know what "type" power connector my car uses and what I need to go to for the...

Hey everyone, Question, what do I need to buy. My roommate is upgrading his HU from the 7700mp. Ive played around with it in his car and its ok. Better than my stock unit! I own a '92 Maxima. I'm getting it free, but im not sure what I might need to wrap up the install on this unit. If...

An adapter. thats pretty specific man.. what adapter.

A friend of mine needs a new radio for his rig. Unfortunately his rig requires a 1-1/2 din setup. Ive found one pioneer model head unit. Aside from that.. I cannot seem to find another manufacturer that makes a 1-1/2 din head unit. Anyone know anything about this? Brands? models? ~J

Yea. Id say the Alpine units, and/or the Eclipse units. They boast 8v pre-outs for amplifiers. better signal clarity than the standard 4v pre-outs everyone else offers. Id still argue Alpine b/c Eclipse HU's look oogaly, and get stolen alot. ~Jon

Ahhh. I see.. Because the stock power cords generally are cheap as hell, small gage, and NOT fused or connected directly to the battery.. gotcha. In case I ever remove my amps... Should i use maybe.. 4 or 6 or 8 ga directly from battery to fuse to HU? Just curious. Good to know these things, I...

Yes its been discussed. When I search for it I get 3 results. Ive heard good things, Ive heard really bad things. I find it hard for a HU that costs so **** much to have people say such bad things about it. losers that just arent mechanically/technically inclined I say.. Fortunately for me...

Doesnt really matter what kind of power. Go overkill, So later on your power equipment will be able to power a better system. Better than a 140 amp alternator, No more than a 250. http://www.excessiveamperage.com http://www.h-o-alternators.com A Deep Cycle battery, suggesting an Optima...

Well thanks alot guys. Although, quoting above.. i knew that at least! jeebus.. =P I will no longer haunt this thread. Next question up will be an appropriate line driver.. Since i do not need a crossover unit. And am in the market for a DIN style EQ. And the question that follows is, On many...

This may or may not prove to be a n00b question. Ive searched the forums here and no answers. Part of the problem there is I'm not entirely sure what keywords to search for as far as my question is concerned. I have never really understood the relationship between the HU and Amps on a...

Well at least we have some elbow room.. LCD HU. 2 1200 watt subs. 2 600 watt subs under seats?? in a honda? 1 2400 watt amp. 1 1200 watt amp. enclosures?? sealth boxes? Which seats did you want to mount the lower-power subs under?
