Pics of my setup
Ok, I've decided to post some pics of the setup in my trunk. I realize that by doing this, I'm setting myself up for all of the negative comments from everyone about how much they hate Sony, but I'm immune. Non-beleivers need only to listen.
http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...1/f7422d26.jpg This is the fiberglass box, and the amp rack without the decorative cover. The rack can lift out (after you disconnect the electronics, of course) and the spare can still be lifted out. http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...a/f7422d49.jpg This is the setup with the decorative cover in place. The two rectangular areas on the sides are storage for the battery (on the left) and for tools (on the right). http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...3/f7422d38.jpg The battery. It's actually a deep cycle, gel-cell forklift battery that I got from my buddy who's a forklift mechanic. The whitish-yellow stuff is just expanding foam that I used to seal the battery into place and keep it from moving around. The black wire is 2-0 gauge running in parallel with the battery under the hood (very hard on the stock alternator at times...will be replaced soon), and the 2 reds are 4 and 8 gauge wires supporting the amps. The silver wire is just a 4 gauge battery ground. http://www.imagestation.com/picture/...6/f7422d40.jpg Just a closer shot of the completed setup. All in all, it took about 5 weeks to build. Being as how I'm a salesman for Sony Electronics, the whole thing (materials and electronics) cost me less than $400. Anyone who tells you to stay away from fiberglass has no idea what they're talking about. It just takes alot of patience, but not very much skill at all. |
damn, not my thing but I can respect a clean install..good work

I hate stereo stuff but that looks HAWT!

Props! It looks excellent - and you are pleased! What else is there?
Seek ye not validation! (BTW selling car audio for circuit city i got to use Harmon Kardon's employee discount.... Sweeeeet.) |
Awsome setup. purty install. hardest part of using fiberglass is getting it perfectly smooth. not so much the making it. When you want to incorprate designs or patterns it gets difficult.

clean install... do you do the scene?????????????
