When people hate on the fur on my fiberglassed door panels and they are driving their sister's car lol. He goes your car has fur. I said dude your driving your sisters car it has her initials monogrammed on the back. So many people hate on it but it's my car and I like it so take your opinion elsewhere. Also I hate it when people with daddy's money try and hate on all the money and hard work you put into your ride.

ball peen hammer crimps.

amps jumping hots off each other. (others messes)

"grounds dont have to be the same size as power cables, but when i turn it up the bass goes down"

bandpass boxes from best buy sealed up in trunks.

" i got this box, i think its a W box, it bangs, can you put my 12's in it for me"

all that jazz listed above.

oh and when them magic tricks happen, like a ton of BS gear, xplod amps mismatched torn surround woofers leaky boxes, undersized wire installs that kinda actually sound good. lol

Just skip the harness then. People run all new wires to their amps and processors and act like the HU isn't as important.

2007 Pacifica
Rebuild. Less quiet. Still not loud.

did a system for a kid. installed his psi15 a ddm2

dual runs, big 3,alpine deck, type x comps...then he catches a attitude because it's not as loud as mine...wtf? his Sub is on it's way out and he has more rattle then sound.

few days go by and he tells me he fixed his rattle.

and this is what he says.

I have zero rattle. Insulation works better than anything. Outside u could barley tell I have a system. Inside its a little lower volume wise than yours

What insulates better than insulation lol.

then i reply with

well insulation has fiber glass in it. I'll spend 5x more not to breath that in. not to mention the heat and moisture will.make it fall apart

deadner works thats Why every company makes it. and good deadner you only need 25% coverage. so if you need 100sq ft covered you only need 25sq ft

then this genius comes back with

Yup def not throwing 300 towards deadner. I have other hobbies

Most of that stuff is designed for people who have money to throw away on car audio.

They'll charge 5x as much for something cause it's labeled" car audio."It's all marketing garbage
