Cleaner look. I dig it. What kind of wire did you use to make your RCA's? I thinking of making my own,also. That way i don't have to find a place to hide all the extra wire.
Re: 1997 BMW 525tds Touring Oldschool Install
They are Rockford fosgate power spl series rca's
what else can I say I am a grumpy asshole most of the time.
Re: 1997 BMW 525tds Touring Oldschool Install
Thanks for answering ttocs!
I had two days off this week due to compensation for a business trip that will start Saturday. Will fly to Sao Paulo.
Never the less i used the two days off to work on the car. I finished connecting all the speakers, ran all the power supply wires from the Basscube, the Linedrivers and the Crossover to the hideoutboot for the DD5 on the other side of the trunk.
I now have a two Power Cell 4000 batteries hidden in the trunk and also a 75A Power supply to charge the batteries when the car is parked in it´s shed. A nice little power supply board with all the fuse holders on it is almost done as well.
I also took myself some time to fool arround with the lighting in the car. More to come when i´m back from the business trip...

A lot has happen since i last posted here. The DD5 found it´s new home in the left side boot and the spare tire boot is housing my new battery and all the needed power and ground distros now. The rack for the 3 MS2250 Nickels is ready as well.
Sorry for the bad pics, but i only had my phone with me last time.

Being loud without good sound quality is pointless, but having good sound quality without being loud is also pointless.
Re: 1997 BMW 525tds Touring Oldschool Install
That´s a Powercell 4000. A friggin huge additional battery.

Re: 1997 BMW 525tds Touring Oldschool Install
Thats what makes the mystery, no wires to see! Is that the only batt in the car?

Wait until u see 3 of the Nickels installed. The only reason why i go with these is the extra headroom of the 2250´s.kg1961 wrote:not sure what i like more the son of or these
