My dad came up to me maybe 3 weeks ago and told me he had a friend who was sick and tired of the system in his porsche. He wanted it out, and was letting everything go for a pretty good price. He said he wanted the car 100% stock, so he told me I got to do the uninstalling.

Well I waited, and waited, and waited. My dad kept getting my hopes up saying he was going to bring Porsche home, which he didn't, about 6 or 7 times. FINALLLLLY he brought it this morning, I dropped him back off at work, and got the Porsche for the weekend.

I open the hood and find:

- Alpine nav system

- JL 350/2

- JL 250/1

- 2 JL Audio XR653-CS crossovers (which means there are matching speakers and tweets)

- Shit ton of wiring, including 2 small distro blocks and fuse

- Unsure of what its called, but it has all the RCAs, ipod cable, video cable, etc plugged into it.

In the back I find a custom made sealed box with 3 JL 8's in it.

and in the dash I find the Alpine flip out screen (with the nav feature included), and an in-dash dvd receiver.

I spent about 2-3 hours taking out all the wiring, the amps, the nav system, the crossovers, the subs, box, etc. It took a while cuz of how the amps were mounted, and the wiring was INSANE to get to. All in all, pretty fun. I had to work tonight so I didn't get to take everything out, but the rest is coming out tomorrow (in dash lcd, dvd receiver, and the thing i'm unsure of whats its called, plus a little wiring).

That, and I sold my cutlass today, so it was one of the best days in a while //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif.

2 15's in a car like that is a waste
If you read, its not my car. There are 3 8s in it, and they sounded pretty good for being low end JL stuff off only 250 watts...

***i aint clickin all those links
You dont have to lol. There are other people here besides you.

so did you get all of that?
if so, luckyyyyyy haha
Not free... but it was a good *** price. Still have to pay someone to put in the headunit cuz im not ****ing up the car, and had to buy the headunit. I do headunits on my cars, that way if I **** it up I can't hold anyone else responsible. I won't work on a **** Porsche.

 
so are you buying any of the stuff hes selling?
Technically buying it all, but my dad wants to buy some of it, and the rest will just be sold. He wants it gone and hes rich, so I can get an amp I can use for a great price... why not?

The 350/2 in my sig is coming from this.

probably one of the worst installs iv seen in a porsche.
lol, it was a PITA to get the amps out how they were mounted.

not the worst ive seen by any stretch of the imagination though. a couple places near my house are REALLY sketchy and just leave wires hanging everywhere, and leave u with electrical problems and shit

 
Ah, I didnt think it was that bad, but could have done better.
Still, I wish that was my car, then I would be leet!
who uses the word "leet" nowadays?

Shit I don't care how bad the install was. i'd take the car any day. It sounds AMAZING, and I don't mean the sound system.

anyways the stuff is out now so it doesnt matter anyways //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
