Finally finished stereo upgrade
Since I did all the work myself it took a long to complete.The car is a daily driver, so I had to do it without disabeling the car or sounds.I kept the oem stereo,for my wife & I it works just fine.Here how it goes.Replaced battery with Optima yellow top,Replace terminals with Streetwires terminals,ran 4Gauge power cable to 1 farad Streetwires capictor,to a McIntosh MC440 amp ran in 5 channels.From the stereo I tapped into the balanced outputs to go to the Audio Control DQXS electronic x-over & equalizer,mounted remote controller in cubby above stereo.For sub I am using a 4080 box I wrapped in suede with a JL Audio 10w1v2. I also covered all trunk panels in suede & the false floor in vinyl to match interior.For the doors I chose to do something a little differnt than most.I went with a 3way set up with MB Quart rce104 & rce164.I ran 2pr 12g. speaker wire into the doors.I also used 40 sqft of dynamat supreme through out the car.Cables used are from Streetwires & Monster Cable.For the rear I removed the factory 6x9's & grills and covered the rear deck in black suede.For the rear sides I kept the stock amp & speakers,but they are ran thru the eq.They work just fine since they are for just rear fill only.
