      Oh and Otterbox shipped my new case out after my other one took a 15ft drop at work -.-

  2. Second headlight in a week. HID's soon to come. Tired of these $30 fixes -.-

  3. The lever on my Pioneer Deh-p8400bh lost it's spring action tonight... Guess Its time fork $50 over to pioneer to replace it..

  5. On the hunt for a camera before we head down to SBN

  7. Got the Vxi65s in along with the 85.4 and found a spot for my knob when I get the Sk2500. Skar has impressed me in person now. Butttttt I forgot to take pics.. mfer >_

      looking forward to seein' it

  8. Got some AudioTechnix wire in the mail.. 100ft 16ga. Ran the front tweeters and doors to the trunk to the crossovers. Finishing up tomorrow night. Should have the Skar mids and highs going with a DD1 + CC1 tune. Excited

      what a coincidence, I also ordered 100 ft of AT 16 gauge speaker wire.

      Oddly it the jacket smells like a pool liner. Had the roll by my head fighting a door molex for about an hour so its all I could smell lmao

  9. Apprently 2 3/8" means 3-4" with Install Bay... Baffles I ordered are too deep.

  10. Not enjoying the tax raise on our paychecks. Already got hit with the changes apparently and they arent to be in effect until the 20th.

      and it's not because I smoke it

    3. sayhuh?

      sayhuh?

      Well it would still have to be regulated to some extent..like not allowing people to grow, or sell. You'd still have to fight that, but legalize it and control the sale of it via govt controlled stores, etc.

  11. The hunt for a high output alternator is on! So far one company may be getting a happy customer. Awaiting a reply from DCPower

      Yeah I've seen the feedback about all that. Anythings better than the stock alt though, 85amps of fail. Lol Might go with Tenney unless the Mechman'll match up with minimal machining

      I've never had any issues with DC not responding. I always get a response within a couple days and my alt shipped out 2 days after I ordered it

    4. OrionStang

      OrionStang

      Its all in timing. DC is No.1 in my  book, and worth the wait.

  12. Got an order in to AudioTechnix and Sonic for some goodies to get started on the Skar'd Aveo. Tired of drooling over these Vxi's and 85.4

  13. My airbag lights been on for 2 months now. It's really getting annoying. Reconnecting all my sensors didnt do jackshit

      Oh, I called up to my rep and he told me to just go to a parts store and have them scan it. Fucking moron.

    3. HatersGonnaHate

      HatersGonnaHate

      Lol parts store plug n play scanners don't do srs/abs codes haha

    4. Rmichael91

      Rmichael91

      I know, haha. I told him that when he suggested it and got an "oh" and then nothing. All they do is obd1/2/3 codes

  14. Wrestling with door molexs -.-

      good luck.. i HATE those motherfuckers.. Took me 2 hours per door when i was doing my car

      At this point I'm just hoping its this drivers door.. but I'm gonna double check the back 2, which are currently speaker less. Debating on throwing a set of Skar Vxi 6.5s in each and another set in each front kick or a pro 6.5 off another Skar 85.4

  15. I dont like how AudioTechnix shifted over to a pure ebay store...

    1. Raptorman

      Raptorman

      It's just easier to sell shit that way I guess. Also their name gets out there better.

      I mean I get it, but my saved carts gone. Gotta track everything down and now I'm stuck choosing from more colors lol

  16. Was about to order some 4chan RCAs then remembered I had a 20ft monster set from an old build in the goody box in my closet as I was about to checkout from the cart... ha

  17. Quite a difference a measely 8ft of 60mil deadener can do... And not having a huge ass hole in my rear decklid anymore lol

  18. Debating on how to run these 2 runs of 1/0awg in the Veo :s only open gromet is behind the motor on the firewall towards the pass side. The main battery's on the drivers side arg

  19. Voltmeter and terminals came in today. Ordered my 4chan and 2 sets of components, should be in after New Years... Still a ways to go but finally making some progress

  20. Electrical and wiring with my brain just don't clash right

  22. Grabbin Jville140db in the am and getting work done on some boxes... I should really get to sleep ha. Another note, ordering some Skar gear next weekend. Everythings planned out aside from the final box :D

  23. Just priced my build out and the hefty $1700 minus box, batteries, and a new hu just made me cringe. But fuck it, it's time to get everyone coming my way and hacking the car apart.

      Did someone say trunk build.

    3. Rmichael91

      Rmichael91

      That is true Nate, didn't consider it on the spot.

      Yeah Mario, nothing that hasn't been seen before. Just dedicated to one audio company, wiring company, etc. Then when it comes time for a new ride, its a simple move and some fresh wire.

      Just dealing with the arms of my trunk. Not 100% on if my new 6.5s will cut into my height clearance either. Atleast right now this is with the cardboard mockup and not MDF

      lol, CAD is not user friendly... Google Sketchup isn't too hard to learn...

      Depends on how dedicated you are.

      That's why I'm getting a degree. Full time school and work. I was thinking about applying at a local chain for car audio as like an installer (as they make more, but not much more. But anything more is helpful) but with 0 experience? Doubt they'd even consider hiring me. so just get muh degree then boom. Hopefully start my way up. Too bad 4 years til my degree eh? Lol.
