Recommended Posts

I'm jelly like a mofo of that alt... lol. just bc i can't get one. diff vehicle.

But really, lookin good. I like the fact it's like you wanted all the gear before you even started. I know many who do it a step at a time, which isn't bad but sometimes you hit that roadblock or something and it just never gets finished...

Well, I decided to go with a set of Rockford P3 12's loaded. (http://www.rockfordfosgate.com/products/product_details.aspx?itemid=120452) They sound great! I have no doubt your system is going to be AWESOME!!! Can't wait to see more!

Thanks, I started the under hood install aspect of it already just need to post pics. up but plan on gutting interior, running wires, applying sound deadener, installing HU, and re-installing interior starting tomorrow so we'll see how far i get.

Post of some pics./vids. when you get yours pounding

Only issue so far is that I did the battery and alt install this past weekend and whether with the stock alt or Mechman the battery gauge on dash always read above 14V slightly until today I was driving down the highway and happened to notice the gauge was reading close to 10v (which on the gauge is a LOT lower) any ideas what could be the problem? Basically the only things done to this vehicle is what i have posted above and that's it so far.
