You found such a deal on the car...

amazing you have all this money to put into it.

Between all of the audio and the upgrades/checkups you're doing to the car you're gonna be putting $5K plus into it lol

it will still be worth more than i put into it

and all the audio i had sitting around and i pay no labor

all the maintinence is done by my friend at the gm dealer for free

im going to need you to work on your tech flex termination and application....no wire tie needed simply a piece of tape that barely fits around the wire and techflex and a piece of heat shrink...much more attractive....as for the application it shouldnt be that loose around the wire it should hug the wire much a like a chinese finger trap.

other than that looks nice

never used heat shrink either how does that work??
