bassl0va Posted December 7, 2010 Report Share Posted December 7, 2010 So you want ot do something like this? Or just have the port going through that hole? 1KW for the mids/highs when you are only running 2KW for the subs? And you won't need 2 alts for that. To stop dimming you could replace all the lights with LEDs, then you won't have any dimming at all Quote My RE MT 18" wall build Former build, farewell beloved wall.In progress, Toyota Starlet build This forum has a massive boner for ridiculous electrical upgrades.

To stop dimming you could replace all the lights with LEDs, then you won't have any dimming at all In order: Either one. Port through hole would be preferred. If I can't get a car where the armrest folds down, I will port the box normally and fold the seat down. As for headlights: HID led headlights? And yes. 1kw for mids and highs. Including about 350w midbass Edited December 7, 2010 by Christopher Quote ~~~~~~~~SAY NO TO PHOTOBUCKET~~~~~~~~ Snow's DD-1 tracks here: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/167433-snows-dd-1-tracks/ My take on OFC vs CCA: https://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/110381-things-that-piss-you-off-in-the-car-audio-world/?do=findComment&comment=2461444 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Including about 350w midbass How many comp sets are you gonna run off those 1kw? And you really don't need 2 alts for that. You can run one decent sized alt and something like a XS Power D3100 and you'll be fine. But another car you can get is a Grand Prix, they have decent sized trunks and have the fold down arm rest. Well at least the 2000 Grand Prix do. Quote TEAM FLEX ISSUES Car: 1985 Oldsmobile Delta 88 Royal 24" Rims HU: 7" Carputer, Planet Audio EQ, iPhone.

Including about 350w midbass Will this be a bandpass then? Because that would probably be the best idea if they will be shut in the trunk by themselves. HID is a different technology, it stands for high Intensity Discharge, as for how it works I don't know. An LED is a Light Emitting Diode, far simpler and it uses less current to run, I don't think there are any LEDs that are bright enough to be used as headlights (particularly high-beams). LEDs could be used for internal lights and pretty much every other light apart from the main headlights. Is this 350 watts of dedicated midbass? Such as from 70-250hz?

SnowDrifter Posted December 8, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) Or heck... What's a good small-midsize pickup that seats at least 4? If a rwd car isn't possible, how about a pickup with a blowthrough and a locking bed cover? At this point, I am just looking for something that is rwd / 4x4, manual, and something with a lockable trunk that no one can see in to take my subs to be.
