I have the same car and am fighting an alternator whine problem, did you have any trouble with this with your first install?

No alt whine for me. I did use a good rca and decent grounds. Not sure why you have yours. What do you have in your system

I think I have traced the problem to my head unit, problem is I don't have an extra one laying around to swap in. I'm writing up a new thread here and will post that soon.

Where do/did you ground your amps at?

I ground my amps/batteries on the strut mounts. Just sand down to bare metal. or if you want to go all the way you can go directly to the frame through the spare tire well lol

Second try is a lot better. Not perfect but it will work. This time suede. And it was made for headliners. Now I know to always do that

Couple coats of filler and hours of sanding. Each coat of filler I am getting a little better at it but still far from good. I did not give enough clearance for the tweeters to be mounted so I had to cut the plastic behind. In the pic you can see one side done already.

Did a little playing around with painting the dash. I think it looks a lot better just black and yellow than the factory grays that was there. After all I am from Pittsburgh so anything black and yellow looks better to me
