This one was a big one I will quote his review so you can read it.
So Matt helped me install a kickass system in my 2008 Accord. It took a couple of days and a lot of driving but it was definitely worth it. Matt is a chill guy and we got along well right from the start.

I pulled into his driveway on Saturday morning a little before 8am and he had all of his tools and supplies laid out and ready to go.

We installed:
JL C5-650 components in front
JL C5-650x coaxials in rear
JL Slash 300/4v2 amp
Infinity 10" Basslink
JL CleanSweep
MTX Re-Q
Dynamat Xtreme on floor, doors, rear deck and under back seat

We started off by stripping the interior of the car:


Then we jumped right into laying down the Dynamat .. here is the passenger's-side floor:


Door before Dynamat


Door after Dynamat


Fuse holder mounted


Cleansweep wired up, not yet secured


Amp being wired up


One of the rear crossovers mounted


Finished!!



Overall it took us about 25 hours spread out over 4 days (with breaks and stuff). Matt made the two and a half hour drive up to my place twice without hesitation. He did great work and I learned a lot along the way .. if you need any car audio stuff done, contact matt (AIM reimermatt), you won't regret it.

Here are a few older installs 97 Volvo 850. It was probably one of the more easier installs I have done. Here are some picks of the install.

The loot


The wiring harnesses getting ready to be all soldered


The hole for usb port


The usb port


The sirius radio power plug lets mod it a little


Open it up


Solder it up


Heat shrink it all ready for being wired behind the dash after being wrapped in electrical tape.


Location of sat radio needs some mounting

All those were some older builds I have done. I am getting ready to be flown to LA for 2 more 370z installs, on top of that 2 more local Z's in my area.

This guy is seriously one of the nicest people I've met in a while, after talking via AIM for an hour or two, we met up and got my aftermarket head unit to work. Very friendly and well mannered. Def hit him up if you need help, highly recommended!

Thanks man, it was good to meet you and see a nice si. I am glad I got everything resolved for you. Hope to hear from you soon for the rest of the system upgrade. As for anyone else that needs help just let me know and I can help out.

I have an Alpine CDA-9805 CD player/radio. Recently the volume of the radio has gotten very low. I can only make out a couple of words occasionally if everything is quiet and the car is not moving. If the car is moving, or if there is any noise, I can barely hear the music and can not make out any words. I live in Seattle. Do you have any suggestions?

Well it can be a number of things, the first thing that comes to mind is that the internal amp could be going out OR could be shut off "if you are using the internal amp to power the speakers" Look for something in the setting about internal amp on and off. If you are using a external amp it could be that the rca pre out puts are going on it, or the amp could be failing. It also could be but a very slim chance that the speakers are being grounded out on a piece of metal and muting the power that the internal amp is putting out. It is an older unit but not that old, if none of those things work call up alpine and tell them what is going on even though ti is probably out of warranty, they are very good at repairing them for free or at a low price. Let me know what you find out so I can help you more. Good Luck

e got started today by running the wires. Here are some pics.

The factory grommet


Running of the 4 gauge


Running the 4 gauge threw the grommet


All ran threw the fire wall


Running the wire threw the wall always needs a helper. Just so happened he was there to learn and work. He like to get to work and learn.
"pic in a bit"


Ran threw some holds in the floor braces.


Me and him just taking a nice shoot of us and our cars.

Okay yesterday we got back to working on the car. After the 2 days of rain. We fabricated the bracket for the fuse holder, and finished the angle eye power wire and the sub connections.

Brackets location made some pilot holes for easier install of the taping screws.


What the bracket will look like mounted


Bracket installed


Fuse holder installed going to cover the wire in black expandable mesh tubing

Okay today we finished up the spray painting. Also made some gap brackets for the amp to sit up on so the wires can be ran underneath.
Here is Jerry cutting the wood for the gap brackets.

Yesterday finished the amp install and installed a temp head unit to test it out. Sounds rely loud to loud for me but for him it's good.

Quick wiring up to test it.


Wired it up with wires all tucked.


All finished with that


Wires all cleaned up will probably clean them up a bit more.
