Last year I custom built a sealed enclosure for my 08 Silverado that fits perfectly under the drivers side back seat. 5 sides of the box are constructed of 3/4" MDF and the top is 1/4" of fiberglass. The reason the top is made from fiberglass: my 10" sub has a mounting depth of 8"...

I have an Eclipse 3640 4 channel amp that I sold on ebay. Buyer sent it back to me, said it bad. I installed it back into my car and it works fine. So out of curiosity I decided to open it up and see if there was any problems internally. You will see in the picture below that a power transistor is o...

I suggest you put your LPL somewhere you can accurately replicate on your knob... e.g. 50%... mark it with a line if you have to... then set your gains there.

One person keeps the car wet while the other washes. My red Silverado had really bad hard water spots on it from ...
