C6 Vette install.

[audioarsonal 10+ year member]

Hey guys got a customer that brought in a C6 yesterday.Its a really nice car.I have personally never seen the inside so this is my first real look at the entire car, other then just seeing one on the road.

The customer wants 2 JLW3 8's behind the seats a 500.1 in the back area and a Z2 head unit.

I got to work today installing the W8's behind the seats and preping for the amp.

Here are the pics I took today of the progress....

Oh I didnt know the w3s had the little circle on the front, I thought they had a JL Audio dustcap.

yup, the w3v2 (and original w3?)'s had the dustcap,

the w3v3's have the emblem.

A buddy of mine had 4 12 w3v2's put in the back of his tahoe put in at hifibuys... he blew one... took it back to them and they put all w3v3's in no charge... too bad they're out of business (at least in my neighborhood) now...

Everything on the car is push button.The handles on the outside are touch sensitive.On the inside its push button start/ACC,the door ahs no handle just a button to release it(there is a manual handle located on the floor,I guess its for when all the electronics go out in it).

Well I got the Vette finished and all is good.Here are some more pice I got of the finished product.Sorry no real step by step pics.I gotta work too

Anyway...

There was no place on this ***** to get a good ground.Here is about the only place on the vehicle that is actually metal AND connected to the frame.

It was a little tricky working with this thing.I thought I had broke something more then a few times on it.Some much stuff is computered controlled its not even funny.

All in all it was a great learning experiance and I can't wait for the next challange
