I bought an wiring harness......................from ebay lol. Auction said it was for my car but now I dont know about that one. Pics.. Have no idea where this big ass thing plugs into. From the listings Also like I previously said. All of these fuses are good. The Stock radio worked fine and had power. The HU has a good fuse and I wired it up to the car battery and got power but when taped into the factory wires no power.

I just hooked the deck up to the car battery and the HU turned on, all fuses are good none are blown out. I have no idea whats up.

All fuses were good, and the Hu fuse was good too. Maybe its just the HU, I didnt really want this one anyways..Guess I'll go buy a new one.

Okay I'll go check them all out... Appreciate the help though...

How would I fix that if that happened? Ground a hot wire? ....Cause I didnt even have the keys in when I stripped the jackets and wired it up. Then I turned the car on. Maybe something could have happened when I took the sock stereo out or something. Thats all I can think of.

I just twisted them together real tight, t-taps would have gone on if it powered up.

I got another HU around here somewhere from our old truck.. I'll try it out. If the connections are bad how do I go from there? I cant see how they are bad though the stock radio worked fine.

Constant 12V+ Orange to the HU yellow Switched 12V+ Yellow to the HU red Ground Black to HU black With these alone I should get power to the HU right? Cause I just did these steps can turned the car on but no power..

So wait...the wires I already have with the HU in the pics I need those plus the wiring harness?? Or do I just take the wires I have now and match them up correctly to how roscoe1129 posted?

Got this Sony deck I got for free and wanted to install it into my caprice for the time being. I took out the stock radio and trashed it..(by the way was an bitch to get out) I need help with wiring everything up, i was gonna have it done at a shop but I wanted to learn something new. These are all the wires that came off the stock stereo and have no idea what wire is which. The HU.. What is exactly needed for the install? Most likely I have most tools needed so Im should be fine with that. I know Im going to order one of these. I dont feel like cutting and fab up the original dash. http://cgi.ebay.com/1985-1990-Chevy-Capric...080218088a13253 Also is this needed? http://cgi.ebay.com/1984-Chevrolet-Chevy-M...7QQcmdZViewItem I'm going to order these 6x9 prob this friday... http://cgi.ebay.com/ROCKFORD-FOSGATE-P1692...oQQcmdZViewItem Also what wire do you guys suggest I get for the speakers? I already know how to wire up the speakers but how do you wire it to the HU?

I don't know you personally but when you get better maybe you older Sac head will let a young dude kick it with you guys one time, get well soon bruh. Ive been in my fair share of accidents and they are no joke. I'll keep you in my prayers man. -Rell

LoL, okay...where? I may be able to through some business his way. I got a few people in need of a good interior guy and my dad just bought an 88 monte carlo that needs the seats re done.

?

Ur upholstery guy got a shop some where in sac?

Probably been been asked already but Id have no idea where to look for it. But what kind of resin is that you got there? Thats from tap plastics right? Is it just as good as the B-440 stuff? I think is may be the best build thread posted on the net ever at the moment very very good work bruh, I would love to hear this beast in person one day.

expect to pay around 2 racks or more..When it comes to your ride and esp something like this please do not go the cheap route..

Yes SMH, Shaking my Head. What makes them "two ghetto boys"?....cause they were black? or maybe they way they like to dress?....wow

I was thinking running maybe 5 of those sets.. So I guess Im good on that note. I Dont want any 18in Subs or anything like that. Maybe 15's I wanted to keep it to 2 maybe 3 the max of subs in the trunk. What would beat harder then two Jl 13w7 Those two Jls beatn

Only thing thats going to be JL Audio is the two amps for the two JL 13w7 and maybe another JL amp for all the comps. When I open the trunk Id like to keep all the amps looking the same and same brand. Plus those Jl amps are pretty thin and they same me some room

Naw when I said ( Previously I meant I would buy eight 6.5s separately so that would be two 6.5s for each door. If I buy the sets then Id need four of them, 1 set for each door. Since (2) 6.5s and (2) tweets already come in the set. Wait sorry. Its 7:00 in the morning right now and I just woke up lol. Are you saying I COULD run Eight sets with that just one amp? Would it be Okay to run all the Rockford speakers in the car with another JL amp? That way I could keep all the amps in the trunk set up and keep it looking the same? Would I need any batteries or Alternators? The more and more I read or see people Build ups everyone adds a shit load of batteries and alternators. But Man thanks for all this help though, I appreciate it.

How many of those sets could I run off that amp you posted. And I just read this about the Sub and the 1000.1 amps And on JL site it says the warranty void for these are between 2,000 and 4,000 and 1,000 is its Optimum range

Okay Ima break it down simple. I want to put (2) 6.5 in each door totals out to ( 6.5's I want these for 6.5 http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=17102 And (2) tweets in each door which totals out to ( again 1in tweets And these for the tweets http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=14416 Front dash has 6x4 speakers should I even bother with those? If so Im going to through these in there. http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=14408 What amps should go with what speakers and how many do you think I need. Really my issue is will all this fit with the tank in there with batteries that may be needed or not?? ... Compressors are going under the car Or what would be louder and sound better than just two JL 13w's?

(2) 13w7 with two 1000.1 to each sub http://mobile.jlaudio.com/products_subs.php?series_id=10 I thought of putting the tank in the back side against the seats but I need to drain them every now and then right? How would I get to it cause the back seats dont fold down and there is sheet metal behind it. Also I dont want to put in a regular box I want something thats permeate unless I decide to redo everything. Yeah I know I kinda went over board, I got so many question lol. Okay, well either way The two 13w7 are going back there since reinke said I cant do two 1000.1 to each sub how many watts should I set up for these subs and which amps.

Anyone? is there more info you guys need or anything?

It will be a minute before any actual audio goes into the car but I wanna get an Idea on how I should run things, I have very little audio knowledge so stay wit me. I Have a 87 4 door caprice I want to bag it but im unsure on if it will fit. Or could I possibly put the tank and compressors under the car? Any way here is the trunk I just tore out the carpet that was glued down so thats why is looks are Fuckd up in there.. I want to do a wall right there and put in two JL audio 13w7 http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=12151 And two of these to each sub http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/Pr...ProductID=12756 I had this idea for a while now and recently came across someone that had the same idea as me, this is in a two door caprice 70's model though, same trunk design too i believe. These are 12's Pretty much I want to get the trunk like that... and get the air tank there in the middle For the inside Im doing some door panels, all re-designed with maybe (1 or 2) 6.5 in each door and with (1 or 2) 1'' tweets in each door. Rear deck I was thinking of porting the box and having the port come up and out of the rear deck with ?? size speaker on each side and some more tweets? There are factory cut holes for 6x9 now or should I go with a different size speaker. The front of the car in the dash has 6x4 speakers. You guys think I should even bother putting some in there or just leave those out. I really need a suggestion on this cause Im fixing the dash and glassing that right now so if I put speakers in there or not I may just seal the holes up for the speakers and glass over it. I was thinking of going with all Rockford Fosgate speakers all through out and the JL subs with JL amps and Rockford Fosgate speakers with Rockford Fosgate amps. Or does that even matter if I use different brand sub with different brand amp? Head unit Im going with a Touch screen 7in or so most likely Kenwood and two flip down monitors dont know what size or brand yet. -My concern is which brand speakers I should go with and how many amps will be needed for the speakers besides the subs or is it possible for me to run all the speaker in the cab to just one or two amps to try and save some room for the tank. -Trying to get the air tank for the bags/subs with enclosure/ and amps in the trunk -How may batteries will be needed or any at all besides the one under the hood Also anyone is Sacramento or bay area think they can tackle this project and how much you think it run me... If I can get help on making a System Diagram so I can go out and buy all the shit I need I appreciate anyones help. Might post this on other forums to get some more ideas
