2007 Volvo S40: LOOK WHAT I GOT!!! Deal of the century!


Recommended Posts

Welll, when i got my car i thought this was going to be easy, well...turns out NO ONE has an install video or pics or ANYTHING about 2005+ model Volvo S40's. SOOOO i AM the only person in the world who has made a video on it and pics on how to do it.

Its all at our audio team channel. LABaudio502 Check us out on youtube.

I would start off by saying this is NO WHERE close to being a clean install. Its messy as hell so dont judge on that. i will be redoing it next year when i have ALL of my final equipment. (Sometime in the fall) But, this was just the starter, temp. system i installed.

Im thinking about doing a custom amp rack and box in the back but i cant think of any ideas. Comment if you have any deas! Thanks!

First Box:

This may sound stupid but i've never (in my lifetime) heard a better sounding component system EVER. They are loud as BALLZ and they are crystal clear. Watch the video on our youtube channel where i did a distance test. I love them! And btw they are on the STOCK volvo amplifier. Which i clamped at around 55-60 watts per channel! Not bad at all!!

I like the red interior lights.

Thanks. I love them they are really bright. I want to put some in the rear floors or maybe above where my sub is. And my buddy has them in his grille. i love that look and i might do that too. but highly unlikley. I already have light dimming a little with that stock battery anyways. dont want anymore! lol

great news for me then :) I'll be running mine on HU power until I pick up my amp for them :/ that sounds amazing, Hopefully I'll get mine wired up soon :good:
