you know what... I'll just post it up now, what the hell lol

Just bought an older RF amp off of one of the members here, I forget what their screen name is though

54779354-2C11-44F2-B1F2-DA5D5112D933-625

I just took the end caps off lol. they take up too much space under my seat

everything I need to install the new amp

4D69076C-4023-45DC-A3B6-5C5EF005719E-625

removed driver seat and first thing I did was grind down a good ground

9A9F3025-F1B4-4660-A9B8-7DF72F4D2D77-625

everything in and wired up, except for left speakers of course

4FCD86AB-DAB1-4FD5-A3B2-C6CDD6DC4300-625

so far they sound good, I want to wait until I can get an O-scope on the amp so I know where I can turn it up to

not pretty but it works

this was very helpful for cutting the tweeter hole

and some video for you video whores

I still need to upload more, this video was just on stock HU power. I can't wait to hear them scream when the amp is tuned properly. I love how the highs sound already and how they sound in general with live music :)

yay progress!!!

so spring break was this past week. Instead of going out and raging I decided to go home and work on my car :)

first of all I got the mids/highs amp mounted above the ground with some UHMW plastic strips that I found laying around the house

9676D22D-AFB7-414A-8432-9E00E967E4D7-138

3FCE6D9A-CFF4-4570-A94F-0FD187789BA8-138

I got wires cleaned up too and hidden

31D7B2EC-8617-41F6-ADF5-147BC1FF4540-138

I dreaded doing this, but I got up the courage to get my shit together and work on the beauty panel for the trunk wall

got a paper template made up and with taped sheets of paper

654D1B80-9A5A-40E3-A916-64C19DCA1821-138

after 2 tries I finally got a whole sheet of 1/4" birch ply cut in one piece lol

1EE36C3E-C5CF-437D-972D-8EDB02921B54-138

BINGO!!!

I decided that the port and box needed some serious work before it was all done

I pulled the box and everything else in the trunk and got to work

coil still looks perfect :)

A5FCCA1F-4AA7-4ACB-8F3E-3D0D79654BFD-506

I took off the black trim piece above the box and painted it satin black because it was looking pretty faded and ugly

I also filled in holes around the port and painted the port with gloss white paint again

I removed the sub, sanded down the ugly dustcap, then gave it a new clean paint job

it turned out better than I imagined
