Nice thread man. I don't know which is better, the detailed description of your install or the high-quality photos!

That just could be one of the best quality installs I have ever seen.
Let alone a DIY job.

Simply amazing. I am in the process of my install right now. I just may have to steal a few great ideas from the above, if you dont mind. Not necessarily the layout or anything, but more like the quality of how you did the install.

haha, same here. I actually got up, went out into the garage, looked at my system, and walked away shaking my head in disgust.

Of course it's alright!!!! We are all in this stuff together!

It's all about learning and teaching.

Thanks for the props guys. This has been a very long install. I started ripping the old one out on 4/8/07 or there abouts. With only the weekends and weeknights to work on it things tend to take time. So... we are what? 9 weeks into this thing?

The thing that amazes me are guys like Jeff Smith and Bing who can turn out installs like these in a matter of a couple of days. Those guys are masters. I'm just a weekend warrior with more ambition than sense sometimes.

All of the sheathing is Techflex Flexopet from Parts Express. The most of the heatshrink is from Fry's. I love the way their stuff finishes. It's only available in 2:1 though. For 3:1 and clear heat shrink I use Parts Express.

The labels were made on a Brother P-touch label printer. Terminal blocks are from RadioShack.
