Nice....

Not happy with that at all..

I wanted some time to mull it over and the more I thought about it the more I dont like it.. Was a good idea in theory but looks like ass. Im going for something alot more OEM or stock looking.

So into the trash it goes, plan B into operation...

With an install like that, you might even be able to open your trunk!

lmao, fuck you

It's been nothing but agro tbh. Going shopping I either have to put everything on the passenger side or over the parcel shelf and into the back seats... Getting it out is equally as fucking annoying..

With this install everything will be totally encased and free from being thumped.. It's also cool because you won't see any of the audio gear

Definitely VERY happy with that. And very happy I took a couple of days to think it over.

Looks much better, cleaner and more professional.

Ooo btw. I got the sub (well duh, wouldnt have gotten the JBL sticker anywhere else really..) and I have to say I am VERY impressed.

It's built like a fucking nuclear bunker and the workmanship is up there with $300+ subs. It's also very modestly rated @ 250w RMS which is nice.. Nice to see they're not emphasising the fucking peak power (they do mention it however...).

It also has this new spider thing, but the coolest part I have seen so far is the way the braid cables are ran.. There are little clear chambers around the outside of the magnet and they're very nicely put in there..

I will be writing a full review once I've had the chance to batter the shit out of it, but the build is fucking superb.

I would reccomend it on build alone..

Noticed the other day that the 18 box had ripped the fuck out of my spare wheel cover's carpet. So I retrimmed that

Oh, I didnt have enough to do it all, but enough to make sure that when the build goes in the old bit thats left will be covered

NFI (no fucking idea) lmao.

Couple more days before I find that out.

But, to gratify me and make my penis feel larger I got these today -

Drool

I am now in the process of trying to locate parts for the MPS amp. Its not easy but I got a lead today that is looking very hopeful so I might get the original ends for it and all the bits to restore it (looks wise) back to brand new

So 'cos I cant fit the amps yet I decided to start on the wiring, which I knew wasnt going to be easy 'in there'. It's very crampt, but, offers the best opportunity to do a install where you wont even see one stray wire.. Like the rest it has to be done in a special order so it doesn't get muddled.

The purple and black wires you see hanging are going into the amps, and they'll be @ the back of the amps completely hidden from view along with all the other wires.

(as I mentioned before I scraped off some paint when trimming the edges of the carpet.. I knew this was going to happen and don't want to fix it now incase I scratch it again. I'll do it right before the install goes in the motor

)
Oh, and the paint needs to be done again (not inside the amp part 'cos you dont see that) but under flash it looks pretty patchy, so I will fix that. And I decided to go back to the idea of hammered rustoleum for the bits you see. Its also alot harder to mark than flat.

And the back. It all routes out of 2 1" holes.

Check this for tidy tho. That's the side you don't even see.

If your gonna put ricey crap under your hood at least pay a little attention to details like lining up the hose clamps on the intake tube so it doesn't look quite as dumb as it does now.

Also your dipstick tube is not pushed all the way down thats a good way for moisture to enter the system.

Post deleted.

OK guys, I have made the decision not to bother posting anymore threads with pictures in them.

How someone can take a post about a battery terminal and start off about rice/engine mods and so forth is just a fucking joke.

Maybe this place would be much better if we simply sterilized it with bleach and made it smell like a hospital?

Typical internet forum, I just cant be assed with it anymore.

Stip, please remove the thread. And please read the pm I am about to send you.

Thanks
