Ben Building Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 What did your engine do when those wires touched together? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cc_audio Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 You need to be more careful!!! You could have burned one of Thumper's pieces of art work. I'm pretty sure there's a law against that. Haha. "Pound that Sound!" Well, it could have been worse. My friend Tony lost his brand new (to him) integra because he ran the power wire through the door AGAINST MY ADVICE. He didn't even have insurance yet. He only had the car for two days. $100 dollar system, burns $6500 car to the ground. Like I said, could have been worse. It's all gone!

Blackedout Posted March 31, 2009 Report Share Posted March 31, 2009 Glad you got all that squared away......... Coulda been worse....... My fire was........ I'm still recovering from this one. But I don't think your wiring looks all that impressive yet...... I can tell you it will only take me one time to learn my mistake..... There is no point in rushing the shit. You know what a system sounds like, take your time and do it right. Separate the grounds from the hot wires, zip tie everything up clean, fuse the shit out of the system, front and back... after the primary battery under the hood, before the batcap 800, and after the batcap 800. Solder everything so nothing comes loose. You got a lot of money tied up in your system/ car.....more than I had..... Don't make the same mistake twice..... Whether it was your fault or not the first time. Trunk Build Log Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
