My system...almost done PICS!!!

[headbussaboi 10+ year member]

Well, for all the guys who like pictures, I have some shots. I didn't do a whole step by step because most of the interior work was done outside my workplace (Checker Auto Parts) during down-time so you won't get to see step by step install of the deck, wires, or speakers. I will tell you though, that I rewired the rear and ran the fronts from the deck harness to the amps. 0 awg wire came through the unused grommet above the gas pedal (was a ***** to find too), and ran to the back. Factory sub was removed to allow bass into the cabin. I also made some pods out of the triangular panel by the front windows, and MDF spacers for the front mids painted with polyurethane to prevent cracking. Both amps were painted silver to match the car. All I need to do now is make an amp rack cover and tighten up some small stuff. Sub and box is a bit dusty still. My system consists of:

Deck: Kenwood KDC X790

Front speakers: Phoenix Gold RSD 6.5 comps

Rear Speakers: Cadence ZXN52

Mids/Highs amp: Rockford Fosgate Power 750x

Sub amp: Rockford Fosgate Punch 800.2

Sub: Rockford Fosgate Power T115

Box: Homemade 3.5 cubes tuned to 38hz painted with textured Graphite paint

Enough talking and on with the pictures:

Sadly, the picture where my box is half done IS my workplace. I'm surprised that cardboard TV box didn't fall apart with all the torture it saw.

Oh, and yeah, the dash does need some cleaning.

what kinda car is this setup in?

 

[headbussaboi 10+ year member]

Nismos - They aren't right on axis but it's the best as far as mounting goes for now. I didn't want to cut hole in my doors and they wouldn't fit right on that **** panel any other way unless I extended them out like 2-3 inches but that'll look pretty stupid. Trust me, I tried. these are actually the second set of pods I made for this car. The first ones cracked after I closed the doors.

Nauc - That isn't bud. I've been drug free since 2003.

BTW, the car is a silver 2002 Acura TL Type S, which I still have no pictures of:wow:.

Always liked the look of one big amp with how those connect together. Nice job, just need to finish it up and will be good to go.

Very nice. I have the x790 myself and love it but am selling it.

that couch looks ridiculously comfortable !!

It's funny how you say that because my fiance' is 8 months pregnant and she'd rather sleep on the couch than the bed. Well, that and my snoring, but every morning when I leave for work, she gets up from the bed and falls asleep on the couch. It's pretty comfortable. Those amps should feel special laying on that couch.
