Is it bad idea to TechFlex both power and ground wire together? They're only 4 Gauge wire so I figured I put them into 1 tech flex run...

Yah i dont see an issue. You were gonna put them in separate techflex sleeves anyway and lay them right next to eachother. I dont see how thats different from putting both together in one over sized sleeve. Then again i dont know much about this lol.

Can 5k watt rms of bass mess up 3 day old newly tinted windows? They say it takes about 5 days until I can roll down my windows and up to 4-5 weeks until the tint settles

The freaken adhesive from my Elemental Designs eDead vse1 sound deadening is just coming apart in my back seat area. Even the foil on top of the adhesive is easily peeled off :(. Having to redo everything with Second Skin Audio Damp Pro.

Hmm. I'm getting Suntek CIR for $325 (discount price) - All windows except front windshield. - 35% legal tint. The shop recommended 25% for my Camry because of the light interior but I wanted to stay live 35%. Thoughts?

Just bought 20FT of 4 channel and 2 Channel SMD RCA's to swap out my Knukoncetpz stuff
-
so is this an improvement?
-
Just bought them today and prob wont get it until next week. I originally only needed the 2 channel runs but I decided to go ahead and buy the 4 channel ones anyway.
My current Knukonceptz 2 channel ones going to the DC5K was all jacked up and ghetto rigged to extend the run to the trunk and needs a replacement.

Should have bought my XS Power XS Power 598 Billet from SMD store for faster service. Bought it from soundsolutionsaudio on 2/11/17 and it's still being 'assembled' and has not shipped.

I hate ssa. But that's me. They just made money off of you and drop shipped it. Why not just order from who made the thing? I would have talked to Xs direct. But again just me. Why buy something from a 2nd party?!?
-
They offered free shipping and cheaper cost than XS Power price. SMD Store offered same price but doesn't have free shipping. But yeah, I probably should have bought it directly from XS Power because the one I got from SSA looks like it was used.
-
It was from SSA website. Funny though. Their price just went back up to $139.99

Autoshop owner said he needed 2 days when I dropped my car off. I called on second day 1 hour before closing and he said he needed more time and will give me a call tomorrow morning. So... is it normal for them to not give me updates ahead of time if they needed more time? I thought it was weird that I had to call them instead of them calling me with the updates.
-
If its a small independent like mine if you are busy you tend to lose track of who needs to be called. I dont have multiple "service writers" that can sit and just make calls all day like you would get at a dealer. He may have lost track and forgot to call.

It's a small shop and he's had it since 1981. I think the business is mainly ran by him and his son (early thirties) and a few older mechanic guys. Last time I was there I can see his three year old grandson chillin at the front desk with them. I pretty much just showed up and payed the bill and shook his hand and said thanks for working on my car.
I asked him how was it working on the Camry and he noted that there were a lot of water everywhere when he did the valve gasket changing. He also asked me if I did my own oil change because he noticed there was something down the oil pan area that needs replacement (probably needs a new washer for the bolt).
Overall, he was a man of very few words but my instincts tell me he does good work when he needs to complete any given task and he's not afraid to keep the car for a couple more days to make sure it gets done right.
My co-worker was the one that recommended the shop and also let me know that the old mechanic owner there is just and old grumpy guy but does good work (he had 3 cars done there).
Also, I tried to ask the old guy if it would be possible to get dual alternators going in my Camry with custom brackets and he kinda refused that job request lol. Dude didn't even recommend any other shops that might be able to do it ( I guess it's not that common to have dual alts in a Camry).

Lol. Just realized today that my Negative run on the ALT to battery is some cheap CCA wire because I ran out of OFC wire when I did my install. The positive is fine though (0 Gauge Knu Kollosus Flex OFC). Hoping for better voltage once I swap out that CCA crap on the negative line to OFC.
