Just Lost My Install Virginity

Problem with the passats is shallow clearances in the doors so I don't know if they'll fit without modification (even with mdf rings) so I'm already anticipating having to cut the doors.

My Accord was the same way...

Always nice to install your first piece of equipment

Once you get a substage you'll be bit by the audio bug, you'll wanna get louder then louder again then louder again...and so forth lol

That's rough. Makes the learning curve pretty steep for a DIY but it's definitely valuable knowledge to have. My ultimate goal after retirement is to do installs for fun. Just build a word of mouth reputation around town. That is as long as the economy makes a turn for the better and people still care about upgrading their systems in 15 years.

Yep it wont go away either... Youll eventually try to quit but then youll say "O well just put in a head unit in this car" then its right back to installing everything again...

Thankfully I'm an SQ guy, so loudness isn't really a concern for me. But I'm sure the audio bug is gonna make me find the perfect match between tweets, mids, midbass, and sub. Ok, nm, I will be screwed.

Not sure, but I think he said he fails......

After looking at all his posts he is about as experienced a you when it comes to installs. And he must be young and think he is some sort of cool gangsta the way he tries to come across.

He would get his azz handed to him if he ever went to an actual event.
