1999 Acura CL 3 day install...

[Jim Truett]

I whipped this out in about a total of three days over the last two weeks. It's a '99 Acura CL, so basically a Honda Accord with fancier sheetmetal and a nicer interior. Nothing Special.

Premier DEH-P860MP deck
MB Quart Discus 6.5" components
Cheap ass Kicker 12s
Octane LE

Nice, but why you hide the Octane?

perfect stealth install. Great work. There is something about the simplicity in these types of installs that I love.

gotta keep it a little functional. If you have ever held an octane, or tried to hide one yourself the better question is HOW did you hide that big ol beast...........

Looks good! How hot does it get under the glass? I saw your fans on the side but with the glass so close to the top the factory cooling will be severly limited.

Nicely done! Got any buildup pics?

Because as I type this there is a 30# can of R134a freon, a vacuum pump, and a digital scale in my trunk.

It has to retain some functionality, even though I have a Superduty for the heavy stuff.

There is almost 1/2" between the plexi and the amp, as well as the fact that the Octane cover is taller than a standard Ti, so there is plenty of room for cooling. It doesn't break a sweat, even at a 1 ohm load on the
low pass side of the amp.

Unfortunately not. I was in a mad dash to get it done because I have several other obligations taking my time right now. I will add pics with the cosmetics removed later.
