2007 F150 project *PICS*

[ls2poweredgoat 5,000+ posts]

Guy at school over heard me talking to some friends about car stereos and what not, and he asked if I could hook him up. Seeing as I wanted to upgrade my "system", I told him I'd sell him a few of my things. This is what I sold him..and installed.

Eclipse CD4000

Clif Designs 6.5" Components

Alpine Type-S 12" sub

I told him what else he needed to get...and this is what else he ended up with, I don't think he could have done much better for the price...

Kicker kx350.4 (refurb)

Knu Konceptz Kolussus 8-gauge 4 channel amp kit

Anyway, the vehicle is a BONE stripped 2007 F150. This thing has no options, none. V6, no carpet, and it didn't even come with a cassette player. Although it does have air conditioning, which is a must here in Florida.

Since he bought some stuff from me, I told him I'd install it for free. Sorry for some of the pics not being the greatest, I'm working on my photography skills. I'm going over there Wednesday to tune the amp a little bit more, and fix some bugs here and there. Overall the install went smooth, and it was accomplished all in one day. Needless to say, he is VERY pleased with how it sounds.

It was a VERY easy installation. Like I said we got everything finished up, I just didn't get any pics because by the time we were done the sun was gone for the day. I will get more pics Wednesday. It sounds nice.

Oh, and the guy in the pictures is Fusion_Freak, he was a great helper for the day.

The guy knows NOTHING about car stereos, all he knew is that he needed speakers and an amp lol, I couldn't convince him deadening was needed.

I had some mdf rings laying around, so I just used them. The guy literally had no money left, and I sure as hell wasn't going to buy wood with my $$. But he did manage to give me a nice tip...

He ended up giving me $70 because he was so happy with it, but I just gave it to Doug (Fusion_Freak) for helping me out and doing the ***** work. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

It would rub against the surround on the mid. The stock speaker grille covers everything, you can't see anything.

That install was fun. Very simple and clean. Nestor got just what he wanted. Powerfull mids and clean sound without over powering bass.

For all the neysayers, If it were mine or LS2's, it would of been done 100%. But the guy was on a limited budget and is happy with every thing. And thats ALL that matters. =]
