[QUOTE="silveradokid, post: 7543742, member: 631230"] Alright its been a long while since I've posted or even checked, but I haven't really been up to much as far as car audio goes. School has kept me busy and has been draining my bank account. Hopefully the subs will be coming over Christmas. I might be working on finishing up the wood work for my box tomorrow, since I have all the parts to it. I won't be able to carpet till Christmas break which isn't until the 17th. Just for a little entertainment, I inspired my little brother so much that he wanted subs in his car, so I installed them today and yesterday with the help of my dad. But here are some pictures. Start: [IMG]http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee460/silveradoman1/Aarons%20car/IMG_0129.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee460/silveradoman1/Aarons%20car/IMG_0130.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://i1228.photobucket.com/albums/ee460/silveradoman1/Aarons%20car/IMG_0131.jpg[/IMG] Getting the head unit in was a pain in the butt, there is barely any room inside BMW's everything is jam packed in there so it was hard running the RCA's up to the head unit, and actually getting the new head unit in the car.
