reedal Posted December 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 Still no updates. Still need to buy wiring and a few other items before I start rebuilding. The amp/batt rack and new enclosure will be the first things done before redoing the doors and A-pillars. But I did buy one thing that I've been waiting to come out for a while Thanks Steve!! And Antheny, who took over in emailing me, and set me up with an invoice. It'll be a little while before I have it installed though. One step (purchase) at a time (every payday).

reedal Posted December 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 10, 2015 I like it!! Looks nice!! And I don't think the circuit card will have any issues with moving/becoming dislodged, because that's a really tight fit now I REALLY want to get to work on my "rebuild" Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted December 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2015 I haven't had my DRLs working since I bought it, so I figured it was time to make them work again. I took a look through the lense, and the bulbs had broken filaments. I swapped the passengers side, then when I went to the drivers side, the socket was melted and scorched And here it is replaced Also did the 4-high mod (low beams and high beams on when set to high beams for those that don't know) and thought about making it the 4-low/6-high, but decided not to. Not just yet. Only audio updates I have are I just purchased a cockbox from Scott bowman, and I bought an iPod classic 7th gen 120gb to replace my very broken iPhone 5 that vibrated apart If I can get a dry day, I'll go out and clean up all of the grounds (factory and aftermarket) and see if that will help to clear the "service brake booster" message I get on my DIC every time I drive Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reedal Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 Anddddd Only a handful more things to buy before I begin my rebuild. Hope to be finished before April, but we'll see. 1 Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

reedal Posted December 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2015 I'd love a cockbox.. then I seen those prices haha. Lookin good bro. Yeah the prices scared me a bit too, I was pretty glad when Kyle hooked me up with Scott's email. This one is two pair in, four out, and he charged me $85 shipped which isn't all that bad IMO.

reedal Posted December 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2015 (edited) Well, newest item is now a TORK2 relay kit from Tony C (aka snafu). Also bought one of his books to give to my cousin for Christmas. And now all of my money is going into supplies to build a new enclosure. I intend to use some birch-ply. I'm off all week, and the temps aren't that bad, so I'll probably have it done by end of day Christmas (wife works Christmas Day, so we won't be driving to see family until saturday). I've got a pretty good idea for my amp/batt rack IMO. Or maybe simple is a better word... I'm gonna buy everything I need tonight, and get started tomorrow. Tomorrow will be all about that rack, and depending on how long that takes, I may get started on the enclosure as well. Measure eight times, cut once, cause i can't afford a whole lot of wood. The amp/batt rack is going to hold my XS Power D4700, SoundQubed 3500, both AQ two-channels, AQ 4-channel, TORK2, and cockbox. Until I buy more wire and redo my doors/A-pillars, the two-channels and cockbox won't be used.

reedal Posted December 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 22, 2015 (edited) Great updates. Thank you. This week should actually show some progress and not just talk I'd love a cockbox.. then I seen those prices haha. Lookin good bro.Yeah the prices scared me a bit too, I was pretty glad when Kyle hooked me up with Scott's email. This one is two pair in, four out, and he charged me $85 shipped which isn't all that bad IMO. so, $267.56 later, i have two sheets of 3/4" birch-ply, two sawhorses, a new porter-cable sander (shitty black & decker sander attachment for the matrix started separating from the velcro that holds the sandpaper on it), lots of sandpaper from 80-2000 grit (gonna make some things really shiny hopefully ), wood screws, six tubes of liquid nails, and four 1" X 36" wooden dowels for bracing and legs. Edit: for some reason, Firefox won't allow me to use any image code from photobucket to post pictures, so here it is from mobile. Tomorrow I will get started, and hopefully don't get shit for doing this on the patio of my apartment. Pictures will be taken as I go. And sound deadening the rear hatch and under the carpet of course Edited December 22, 2015 by reedal Quote SMD Tool Map https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/193176-smd-tool-map-new-november-2014/ Build log https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/197217-reeds-03-tahoe-hat-sqaq-singer-xs-shca-cockbox-80prs/?page=32 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
