That happens to me when the wire itself gets too hot. Less heat on the wire more on the solder. It takes a while to get it right. I have plenty of wire around like that.

Do a load test or have a load test done on the whole charging system. Sounds to me like the alt or regulator. I wouldn't rule out the battery either

thank you for the info keep it comming please. when is CES?? I hope to have at least one of my amps by dec. ( I'm getting 2 warlords I cant wait.) I want to come play with you Bill CES in in JAN 8-11 I got my passes already and a room. If I don't get some things going for next year, I might be in the 139 class :- I'm not sure if my subs can take another year like last year and I'm stuck with the amps I have now and If I drop another amp I'll be sunk

I mostly use LIL Jon in a comp. I turn my mids and highs off during my run. So I guess it doesn't matter to me

Those Goliath's would be nice in my truck. Too bad i'm short on the cash

cool thanks! i'm tring to figure out where to relocate the ac controls today. i got some pics that i will post up later.

I use Plumbing solder and a torch.

You guys going to be at CES this year? let me know what booth your going to be in so I can make sure to stop by

So I'm starting up a build tomorrow, putting in a 12" LCD into my dash and i guess I'll make my way down to Tap plastics to get some supplys. Any certin resin and filler I should get to mold to my dash? The other thing I want to do is smooth out the texture on the dash and paint it up. should I sand down what's there or should I spot fill it then sand it down? Also whats going to hold up to the bass shaking the shyte out of everything? let me know what will make my life a little easier, Thanks, Bill

Hell yeah. Only if you can find someone to buy it.

Well here's the deal. My wife and I like to be car payment poor so this ain't our first rodeo. Take what you owe on the car you have now. Then minus - example 20000 What it is worth I.E. carmax, KBB, trade in. etc. and 15000 That will give you what you have plus or minus for your next car. -5000 If you still owe more then it's worth then it will be added onto your next car. Price of car plus trade in Try to seperate the sale of the car and the purchase of the new car as 2 deals. NEVER talk about payments!!! Always get the final price of the car and the final amount they will give you on trade in BEFORE talking about payments or rate. I have found that Carmax will give you a little more then any other dealer because they will have a better idea of what they can get for it at the wholesale market also known as the auto exchange in the biz. If you can, talk to internet salesman or someone in fleet. Internet guys usally has some deals that the other guys don't get to get people in the door. Fleet guys sell on numbers not commision. So they can cut killer deals to get their number of cars of the month. It's best to narrow down exactly what you want before talking sale with the guy. Do your homework, know the car you want, know what options, what years what trim lines. These guys selling don't know a damn thing but will tell you whatever you want to hear. TRUST me i've been looking for a second Excursion for 4 months now. I've heard some dumbass people tell me all about a truck that I already have like i've never seen one before :-

Do you ever have people back there? Sometimes it's nice to have rear fill. I wouldn't go and spend a ton of money back there

When I had my Alpine 901 And when I was loud, 150+ it didn't skip. Now I get the lovely glow of my factory deck back. It doesn't skip either cause it's a tape :^

how bout the Ford GT 500? I got to sit in one of those and damn did it feel good The 7 series is also nice. I'm tring to convince the wife to go with that but she wants an X5. One of the two will be in the driveway this year

What is your overall space you have to work with? HxWxD i had a 97 xploder and I don't recall having that much room back there.

U have some nice ones there, I'm hoping that there will be a little change in trophys Mine are all starting to look alike.

soon. It's going to take a few checks to cover my ride, but in the long run it will be worth it. Even with the 5ft width I will still have some left over I can't use so it sucks.

I love the 20% I have now and the silver seems to keep the cops off my ass for the most part over the black I have on the wife's truck

Yeah you can, I was thinking the silver would kill 2 birds with 1 stone but it won't go as dark as I want to tint the windows. I'm looking for 20%. the best they can do is 60%

Yep, Almost double that price for the silver that is a 60%. I'll tint over it for that price

I ran 2 of the HK's very nice amps if you can get the power to them.

Ok so here's the deal.... 1st off let me say that if your not good, wait, Very good with tint you might want to stay away from the DIY project. This is a 3ply system in one piece so install will be really tricky as you can't use some of the same tricks that you would use on regular tint. It's also very heavy for a tint. It's like tinting with wet cardboard. The cost break down is $30.00 a square foot. For the clear. I don't want to get into the pricing for the silver. The roll comes in a 60" width by however long you need it. If you want pricing, for your car give me the size of each window in inches, (height and width) so we can decide how much you need. It will be a few weeks b4 I can come up with the dougth so you have time to decide on if this is for you or not. That price is just for the lami not the install for which I don't want to do unless you $ really $ want me too. Please post on here so I can get an idea on who all wants in. Thanks, Bill

Here's mine... Oh wait, You were talking bout these. And these.

Yep the wife went from " I just want a little beat to, 8K watts and a semi wall" The thing is that you won't be able to sell your friends on that $700 sub but you can sell $100 subs to them all day. Same goes for amps. Not many people can call a system with 2 T4's and 2 RE MT's a starter system. But if your really into it, tou can get stupid loud on cheap gear. You just got to work hard at doing it.

Another thing that helps is friends. Take the knowledge you have and people around you and build a badass system with cheaper parts. Then sell your cheaper systems to your friends. Each time you make a little and upgrade as you go. I always try to be on the Cutting edge with my systems and when I upgrade, friends always want what I got. helps to use brands that they haven't heard of too.
