Need to buy stuff locally, HELP, install starts tomorrow.

[Pr0d1gy 10+ year member]

OK, I have no cables or anything else, just the equipment & what comes in the boxes. I'm in Atlanta, so I am within 20 minutes of just about any store you can think of. Here is the equipment.

Alpine IVA-D900 (with iPod adapter) - need to know the part from Radio Shack needed to bypass this thing so I can use GPS on it when I add that.

Diamond Audio D3 300.4 (want to run bridged 2x200w @ 4ohm)

oZ Audio ME 180CS components

eD Nine.1 (running @ 1ohm)

SI Magnum 12" D2 sub

I need to know how much cable I will need to wire this in a 1998 TransAm.

I also need to know anything I will need, and I mean ANYTHING. Distro blocks, cables, cages, any kind of connectors.

Finally, I need to know where I can buy this stuff locally tonight or tomorrow.

Help me Obi-Wan, you're my only hope!

I know this is a lot to ask, but the install start tomorrow & someone did not come through for me who was supposed to.

Installer will handle that. I need to know anything that will be needed to wire the HU, speakers, amps, etc. including ground, power, remote, etc. What kind of cables for each one & how much length?

Not doing big 3, where do I get battery terminals?

Dude, stop being so helpless. A car stereo shop will carry everything you need locally, but they're going to buttrape you on the price.

My advice to you is to read up a little on the tutorials we have posted in this forum and do the install yourself.

OK, where can I buy an amp kit locally without being totally buttraped?

we have a place called traders village that has like all diff. kind of stores, like a flea market if you will. but the audio places actually carry good stuff w/ warranties. if it were me i'd get the amp kit from there; cheaper than going to a standalone stereostore. but yes they will try to **** you

I don't live in Texas. I called HifiBuys & dude said a 2 gauge JL amp kit would be $190 and has no RCA's! Come on guys, there has to be better options than this out there.

For the alpine i think you are going to have to get the pac tr7 switch.

Nice, thanks man. I wonder if Radio Shack would have the stuff for install....

 

[mtdewelf 10+ year member]

why did you buy your equipment online?

 

[andar 10+ year member]

i know i tried a radio shack for some battery terminals, and they didn't have anything for car audio. biggest cable was like a 10 gauge.
