Ok, cool. I had to ask because alts have a + output straight to the battery, but they also have those extra wires that plug in, I was wondering if it affected the alt's charging potential if those other wires were not being used..

What up smd brethren, so I have this old '84 F250 with a 460cu.in. 7.5L engine and I'm trying to find a bigger/better secondary alt for it, but there's nothing but 60/70 amp alts.. So, my question is: Can I just get a 100+ amp alt from say a newer car and just put it in there(with custom brackets of course) just hooked up straight to the battery? Will it work properly just like that? EDIT: Reason I ask is because I eventually will get to doing a blow-thru with 2 15hdc3/4's, so I want to be sure I can keep my electrical strong.

"I hit 160+db with (enter cheap brand name amp here) powering (enter cheapshit subwoofer brand here)."

x2, my buddy has a Crunch Powerone mono(2000w) powering two 12s & it gets warm & shuts off after a while of playing & it just doesn't sound as loud as 2 12's should. You get what you pay for.

That's f*cking bada$$!!! Apparently this dude lives here in Riverside, Imma have to go see it in person!lol

just a FYI duals are cea compliant... i know surprised the shit outta me too Yea man, I wouldn't doubt them, I had an old school 2-ch dual amp pushing 2 he2's, man they bumped good!

Damn, good sh*t! Btw, by the title I thought it would be about the coffee table for the gods CL post.lol

How much do you charge for paint? Depends on paint type/brand & condition of the car's body...generally around $1000 for small cars & $1500+ for suv's using economy urethane paints-cars with minor dings here and there...

LOTS of factors determine the final cost of a paintjob. For a decent economy paintjob, you're looking at about $1,000 minimum. OR, you could get the local special for about $300 that will fade in less than year.

Agreed...But when the "law" doesn't do anything about it, then wtf are we paying taxes for?!?! Cops just sit on their ass til they see something "illegal" on your car so they can pull you over.

From "ball tickleville"!

This gave me a good laugh, thought I'd share read the review: http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/p_17639_SoundStorm_Fd12.aspx

Sorry, thread jacking coming through, but does anyone know the net volume of that box, or is that TDH confidential?

Fixed?lol. No problem man. Yea, I would encourage you to re-do it, the more practice, the better!

When it's already applied on the glass, you heat the glass(on the outside of the car), not the film itself, & squeegee until it lays down...also, try not to overheat it.. Before applying to the glass you should cut film to glass size, & lay it on the glass, squeegee all "wrinkles"/"fingers" to the top & bottom edges of the film ONLY, grab the heatgun & as soon as it starts zig-zagging, lay it down with your hand while wearing a glove or with a hard card.

Definitely need to heat shrink it in order to do it right, but remember you can only shrink tint up & down.

Won't say I'm the best, but I try & since I got no job & a passion for building stuff, but this was my best box so far I think, off a CL client from Palmdale: http://www.stevemead...rted-enclosure/ My ad: http://inlandempire....2600624340.html not bad audioaddict I also build in SoCal.

The top gap will be filled with fiberglass, I just want to know how most people firmly mount the side panels.

It's for a 626, I'll post pics in a bit...

Very true, but it won't hurt to try, I posted mine up & have had quite a few clients(incuding shops), most of them returning..
