JoshP2002 Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 This is the ONLY advertising of my equipment and it fit - its not completely out there, and is only seen in the vehicle. Tinted windows This is the old dash - out of place, out of color, and out of style.. the only thing fresh in there is the gum. But not now! Turned on it even looks hotter - the sticker took up a good chunk, so its not just out in the open which is nice. It was like having a living room with a single stool. Knobs arent in yet, but I'll do that up when I hook up the rest of the dash. There wasnt enough of a view from my mirror, so I tilted it a bit downwards.. Recut and redone baffle. I screwed it in often, and its tight as can be. this is the piece that will be vinyl'd - I may have mentioned that before, but there it is again. My amp rack! The cover plate was cut to match up and actually be square. Its good1 That wood down there - its a piece for the plexiglass to sit on, its not screwed in completely so it doesnt look perfect I'll be the first to admit! This will either be painted or carpeted, we'll see soon enough. The subwoofer! I like my wires neat, and I think this is neat - its tidy, functional, and shows off some thick wire. Beast of a magnet. I'll paint it black too so you wont be able to see much, including those screws which I'll probably change out and get 3/4" rather than 1 3/4" The family! The cover panels are still in the process of being made for insulation - next weekend? This is an empty spot in my trunk. Looks pretty bland. This is where the 3sixty will go - fiberglass for reinforcement, and then fitting. IT fits well as is, but not reinforced! Then a cover panel will go over that to hide the wires. The man behind the very slow install.. the glasses and hat I actually got both from RF. So there it is. My long over due update - whats left? Dynamat is on its way, insulation, 3sixty, cover panels, fiberglass for 3sixty, and then.. thats the trunk. Oh, and sealing. Lots of sealing air leaks to be done! I have a couple of minor ones (a foot by half a foot?) that will get done. After that it should be warm enough to start glassing my doors for the speakers!

JoshP2002 Posted March 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 im pretty sure they arent I was wondering about that myself - they have a relatively low qts. Ive been told they should work well though by some of the moderators and such on the RF forum, and that all of the RF woofers are able to be put into an infinite baffle config. All in all - we'll see, Im hoping it sounds good, but if not, I'll do some conversions and build a box around it. Otherwise - thank you for all of the welcomes!

Looks good though and welcome!

JoshP2002 Posted March 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 Im heading up north for 2-3 days now so I cant really give you guys any updates until almost the weekend - So! I hooked it all up tonight aside from the kicks. Wire in, fused, and ready to be put on Speakers hooked up, crossed over, and ready to scream! The best way in my opinion to stay away from stray wires, and have an easy clean fit into an amp. Electical tape around the contact Aside from hooking it up - I turned it on too, just for a taste of how well rockford and IB mix. It was like two parts hydrogen and one part oxygen - they mix well, trust me, and its not even close to being done with sound proofing and deadening. The bass was clean and you could feel it even on lower volumes which is what I was really looking for too. To finally feel my bass without having to crank it!

LSN2meBoom916 Posted March 11, 2008 Report Share Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) A very nice start bro. As I said before welcome to the forum. I see there's finally someone that can give me a run for my $$ in terms of yakkity-yack. (My pet peeve is folks who don't read, but rather just look at the pretty pictures, and then ask questions that you answered already..sometimes twice...so I read EVERYTHING ) Kudos on your attn to detail. One thing-I would def dynamatt the hell outta the trunk lid and trunk interior as much as poss. On the RF subs being "ok for IB use" it's pretty much like saying "is a certain car ok for racing?" well, it may drive, and drive fast it just may not do it as well as another car/sub in this case unless you cater the environment to what ALLOWS it to perform well (as hinted at by Ih8punkrock i think...i.e. power adjustment but it's a "big boy" & should not catch on fire I don't think ) I am curious how that RF amp works for ya....esp considering Law's max has a 5channel. Nice work thus far, and Iam tuned in. Whereabouts might you be....you say km instead of mph like us yanks so I'm guessin Canada or Europe somewheres?
