EclipseChris Posted August 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Update August 8th 2010Did my big 4 yesterdayHad to do this to get the the alt, only to find out the nut doesnt want to come off of the stud Just finished this up Update August 11This morning...After tons and tons of non audio related work i got to do something audio relatedDo NOT try to drill with a drill bit and without a drill...Did a ton of work past few days. I deadened both doors and the hatch and then ran the power wire through the firewall. Threw in everything and got this. Update August 23:Got these in the mail yesterday. Im getting some more 1/0 knu and 2 xs power batts today. 8 fuseholders and fuses should ship on this thursday, and i should have 50 ft of red and black braided tubing. Expect the engine bay to look awesome with the wires being color coded. Aslo im gonna get an xs D3400 in due time. i resolve to be a nicer moderator. Tercel build R.I.P.

EclipseChris Posted August 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 7, 2010 Little more update, picked up the batteries and the dude (symmetry9898) threw in a TON of 0 gauge knu. Im fuckin ecstatic! He is actually selling his system so if you wanna get taken care of send him a PM Symmetry9898 Now for pics. The wood that is holding the batts is going to be glassed onto the back of the box and end up behind the back seat. I can see it in my eyes and its gonna look show quality. Update aug 24 The batts above are gonna be glassed onto the box below. bcpballer64 is the one who designed this sexy as box so hit him up. Update aug 25 Got my braided tubing today and an email that said my fuses shipped out. Gonna order an alt a week from now, bcpballer found me a 140a alt for my car :yahoo: Anyway... PICS Here is an idea of what im gonna do with the batts, they are going on the back of the new box and are gonna sit behind my back seat so when you fold em down you'll see this. Please ignore the terrible pic, i made it in paint last night with a migraine. **Disclaimer** I MADE THIS BCPBALLER DID NOT. IF HE HAD MADE A PICTURE TO PORTRAY THIS IDEA IT WOULD BE MUCH BETTER **Disclaimer** Aug 27 Check out what i got! I got 6 fuses and 6 fuse holders, should be getting 2 more of each soon. So i did some work, tell me what you think! Aug 29th Did this yesterday. I don't really like it and i know about the sun visors. i resolve to be a nicer moderator. Tercel build R.I.P.
