zero6391 Posted April 12, 2014 Author Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 okay next day again lol time to jump back on my amp rack. so now im in the process of wiring everything up for the lights got all the lights wired together getting it situated in the car getting all the wires connected and organized done under there got one amp hooked up, this is for the tweeters. and i guess i dont have any picks of the led bars i made but what i did was place the led strips on their wood platforms and then i got a clear rubber hose and cut it in half and placed it over the led strips to kinda reflect the light and conceal the led strips itself. i used 60 second epoxy from the auto store to glue it down got the sub amp in got the processor on its stand got the mids amp in the finished product first look of the LEDs Pioneer AVH-X5500BHS, (2) Rockford Fosgate T400-4, (4) Rockford Fosgate T1652-S Component Sets, (1) Rockford Fosgate T1500-1BDCP, (1) Rockford Fosgate T2D415 in a ported box (5.5cu. ft. tuned @ 37Hz), (1) Optima Yellow Top under hood, (1) Shuriken 80 amp batt in the back, 2 runs 0 AWG OFC Rockford Fosgate wire, Big 3 upgrade on front and back battery, Stock Altenator (90 amps), RF RCA's, Kicker 12AWG OFC speaker wire, Stinger roadkill sound deadner all over the inside of the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
