This guy came to the shop this morning and asked me to run an amp kit for him. This is what I found in the car.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/crying.gif.ec0ebefe590df0251476573bc49e46d8.gif Why do people do this?

six tweeters in the back, factory up front. boss eq, boss cd player, legacy screen. two 12 inch neons on the back seat. wires everywhere. it makes me sad //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/frown.gif.a3531fa0534503350665a1e957861287.gif

 
my friends is worse, and Circuit City did a horrid job at that too. like, they just got wire, splice it with a +lead and fused it, then grounded it on a rusted area of the chassis, then just threw in the sub box without anything to harness it down. Oh, and they didn;t know anything about ohms law, setting the gains, etc. I rewired his subs to parallel and it's 3 times louder //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif he was like, WTF....

oh, and if i were you, i would have been laughing at his set-up with the tweeters in the back like that ahahaha, i'd be like, yo i'll fix this piece of junk for free to rid of your spurious work.

 
call me when a guy ask you to hook up his cd player....then u when u pull it out u see that he tried to use sotch tape.
been there done that......scotch tape,electrical tape, duct tape, masking tape, wire nuts. Anything you name it i've been there. I live in a town of **** ass DIYer's, then they come to me.

Very true, that town is horrible, I used to do a few installs on the side for football teammates, and they would have tweeters hanging down from the cieling, and 4 gauge wire running on top of the carpet right through the center of the car. At alpine intallers shop where he works, they sell some of the best equipment out there (memphis, alpine, clarion.....) but every time im in there some dumb ass is buying a Dual CD player, or set of 6 dollar tweeters. I wish that people would just learn, that you get what you pay for. Oh yeah, and blake how did that guys system turn out with the 2 alpine R 15's running off of that PR 1000?
