Purplehaze Posted October 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 18, 2011 Okay, so I got this baby in today, and it works like a charm! Instal was easier than I expected, and overall I am really happy with my purchase! Here are some pics of the install! Fist thing was get stuff out of my way! So I could get to this But as you can see, the wire I needed was kinda tricky to find, since there were 7 or 8 of them the exact same color! So I decided to try the to get it right before it went into the PCM Found it! So now some tape and care when putting it on! And that part is pretty much done, other than a few zip ties! So now on to a mounting location. Hmm, this looks good to me! All cleaned up and mounted! And how bout a jumper ground? I think so! And there she is, fully installed! And here is a little video I made when I first started the car after the install. Hear the frar in my voice when at first I forget to turn the HU on, which powers my volt meters! And yeah I know, I'm a dork! That's why I hate talking in videos!

Purplehaze Posted October 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 24, 2011 Alright, I finally started on the box for the 3 12's. I have had all three for a while now, but only run two cause I'm trying to let the other one catch up now and equal them all out, before they go in the same box on the same power. It's a simple design that I am doing completely on my own, from design to construction. Subs up port back 7.5ft^3 @33hz FTW! Here are some pics. I hope to get it completed tomorrow and ready for paint. Going w/ the same as dash (midnight black metallic) El port Port(left) and top/baffle(rt) More tomorrow long as I get no setbacks!

Purplehaze Posted October 25, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 25, 2011 Got a little more done today. Hope to get more tomorrow! Got the port Completely assembled, no glue. I then took it apart and started the finally assembly. All screws were pre drilled and counter sunk. All joints glued w/Tightbond ftw! I'll fg resin the whole inside tomorrow and cut baffle and hopefully finish assembly! Then, long as it sounds good, I'll make it pretty Kickin' Cruiser Seller Feedback Stage 3 Dash, Door Panels,4th Order wall 4 - 15'son a DC 5.0K 2 DC 5.0K'sSolo X 15 (v.2) Sub Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplehaze Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Well, I got a little more done today. Got some body filler - NOT BONDO Then started with some sanding and test fitting... Then I started rounding some corners - port inside Now time to break out the dremmel and put in more bracing I notched it out so I could "marry" the braces Side to side is in there! And don't forget the front to back! Glued and screwed! She's gettin sexy! Now for some filler Kickin' Cruiser Seller Feedback Stage 3 Dash, Door Panels,4th Order wall 4 - 15'son a DC 5.0K 2 DC 5.0K'sSolo X 15 (v.2) Sub Build Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplehaze Posted October 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 And now for more sanding! Blow it all out a lil... More filler around the port opening Then after getting it baby-butt smooth, time to finish the last of the bracing. This is where she sets now, tomorrow she gets resin first thing! Slowly but surely...
