Digital Designs Impala

Looks nice so far. I don't post here much, just read alot. I'm really not trying to dump on your thread, just giving you some insight. I had that same deck in my car for awhile. Thought it was really cool for the price when I got it. After about 2 months the touchscreen started working when it wanted to, and after 3 months quit working completely. I continued to use the deck just using the remote for functions. After about 4 months the CD drive quit working. I didn't use it much anyway, I use the SD card feature for music, but my son was going to watch a movie and it wouldn't play. Tried several DVS's and CD's, it didn't work at all. After about 6 months the front RCA output quit working, that was the end for me. It's actually sitting right here on a shelf next to me, not sure what to do with it other than use it for a paper weight. Tried contacting the seller several times about the "1year warranty", yeah, first they would have to understand English, everytime I contacted them I got a email in reply stating "please press reset button on front panel and unit will work ok". Yeah, tried that several times, no such luck.

Learned my lesson about trying to spend less and get more. I went back to a Poineer unit.

Again, not meant as a thread dump, just giving you a heads up on what to possibly expect. Rest of the install is looking good!

Ouch. I feel for ya....cutting the rear deck w/ a Dremel.

That is never fun //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif Did stuff like that back when I installed 'shade-tree'.

Air-saw (pneumatic body-saw) FTMFW!!!

Nice compressor and even a cheap Husky or Campbell Hausfeld saw KILLS any Dremel. Makes the job easy-quick-fast-and-in-a-hurry.

Anyways, nice diy build man. DDin dash cut turned out nice.

Any specs on the box? Any TL #'s?

I have been trying to push a customer to 1 DD3518 or DD9518 in his Caprice, but he is just so stuck on doing 4 cheap 12's on less power. I know I can get better response from the DD3518, but he just believes in what his buddies tell him. Hell, I did 2 Mojo15's in a 94 Impala a few weeks ago on a KX2500.1...and it was pretty much the loudest trunk car around that year model in this area. It was 8.25cuft @36hz w/ 14sq/cuft, subs/port back.
