Re: Need Help? Let Me Know

Okay so were basically done. The new head unit is install he got a sick deal on it at best buy on clearance for 140 bucks! The speakers are either going to be Polk momos or Alpine type R components. And something simple in the rear. If we budget it may get a 4 channel amp but no real biggie he said if we don't. Enjoy!

The wires all being soldered.


All the wires have heat shrink on them than wrapped it all up in a nice bundle


The iPod cable ran nice and clean


The alpine cda-9884 man what a steal for 140 bucks. The little piece of read is just to show before and after.

Re: Need Help? Let Me Know

First off I want to thank Derek for showing me the best time I have ever had on a trip. You are the best man. Second for those of you that may no know, I was flown to California Orange County for a install on a 370z. I have to say it was simply awesome. Also for those of you looking to upgrade your front speakers and think you are limited to a few speakers. Your not! the spacer rings that z closures makes can be used over top of the existing plastic spacer already there. So without further a due here is the install! Enjoy and please feel free to comment and ask questions.

The Ride




The loot


Power wire ran threw stock grommet takes a bit of time but can is the best place for it.



Dash apart and head unit mounted to brackets.

Re: Need Help? Let Me Know

Door panels off


This is why factory is no good LOL


The ID cxs components the woofers need 3 inches of clearance for the magnet.



Using the z closure spacers and installing them with some bigger bolts you can fit just about any speaker in your door, just as long as you shave some of the ring off were the bolt goes the door panel fits perfectly with a good amount of clearance.


IT IS NICE!

REAL NICE


Putting the panels back on


Work work work

Re: Need Help? Let Me Know

So my dad owns a 2008 BMW R1200RT motorcycle and he hats the electronic controlled fuse system. If you over load the circuit that it is programed for than it shut power off to it BMW calls it cambus. So he wanted to be able to add whatever he wanted to the bike without worrying about that. So I installed an aftermarket fuse block that has both switched power and constant ones as well. Enjoy the pics!
