Sticking with the 9833..waiting to get some time to relocate the Alto.

I'll have more updates on this in a little while, I am busy making the LED domes...I'll be doing another fiberglassing project in a week or two in the passenger footwell for the DVD player and whatever EQ/X-over steup I'll be running, as well as redoing the carpet in black. This porject never ends.

 

What are your plans for the black carpet? Purchase new? or dye it?

Theres aftermarket carpet companies that make OEM replacements, theyre in the neighborhood of $200 for something nice and plush, any color you want.

 

BUMP for the next chapter...

 

Umm!?!? Did Dan get banned?

 

I think thats the new OT style title

 

Doubt it considering he can't accept PMs.

 

Guess your right then, mods don't update the ban log regularly I guess

 

Hmm I wonder why he'd get banned poor guy.

 

bump for some long awaited updates...

 

Bump for 30 seconds free time for me to actually be able to finish this.

It might not be for a week or two, but there will be some very exciting updates in the near future.

 

Good I can't wait to see pics Your interior is looking very hot

 

Cmon Metal!

Finish the job FTW!!!!

 

it's been a few days. any update? also, i hope there isn't a 20-page limit per thread!

 

I am not going to have any updates for a few weeks, at least until I finish making all of the LED assemblies.

However, the next installation will feature:

- Tweeters in doors
- Dynaudio MW170 woofers in doors
- Alpine RUX-C701 in gloverbox
- Alpine PXA-H701 powering 3-way active frontstage
- Sirius Tuner
- OEM black carpet
- All lighting hooked up

Basically I am going to take a day off from work to install all of this, but in the meantime, I am an LED b'itch.

 

I thought you were getting close to being done but you just keep on getting more stuff to do. It all looks sick nice work bro

 

Dam i wanna ask you a question bout the retro cluster. Would it be possible to just swap out the needles so you have the same 00-03 cluster but just the clear needles? The reason im askin is because i wanna get orange intelliglow needles cuz i just redid the whole interior lighting.

 

Thanks, man! I wish it were done, it'd be nice to have the interior all back together!!!! I just want to make sure it's 100% DONE when I am finished this thread. The last and final project is going to be the instrument cluster, I am hoping to have all of this done by the end of Feb...then I start the full-fiberglassing of the trunk.

 

Hey, those LED assemblies are helping fund your interior project and besides, you're making a great name for yourself on the Org.

 

yes, and that is LED *****, like he said. but seriously, i admire your skill and hard work across the board.

 

I'm not a fan of suede, but the attention to detail is definately worthy of props. I am looking forward to seeing your new lighting project.

 

What do you use to make the dome light ?
I Know u use LED but i tried but it is dim so

 

He used 20-25 20k MCD white LED's on a pcb board. He is currently making some for fellow org'ers in the FS section. You should chekc them out. Deff worth it!

 

Can you link me thanks

 

quick question where did you get the material for the dashboard from? i am looking for some leather and svade or how you spell that lol

 

Suede, lol. Distinctivefabrics.com.

ALRIGHT, LEDs are done! Over the course of the month, this project WILL BE FINISHED! STAY TUNED!!!

 

Wow... lol

 

I have seen interior mods before on other car website.
I have been a member of G20.net and many people have done interior mods on there.
I have friends with complete interiors professionally done....


BUT, I have never seen such a detail-oriented, beautiful work of art like the interior of your car. I think it is great. It's fully custom yet not over done. I think the two-tone turned out great. I read through this entire thread which is something I usually dont do with long threads. The lighting install and the buttons are amazing. I wish I had the drive, patience, energy, money, place, TIME, and skill to do this.

Oh and btw once you start working on a car there is NO END so trust me you will never be truly finished.

AMAZING WORK DUDE! I'm gonna sit back, keep watching, and live vicariously

 

Amazing job man, congrats looks amazing

i just went threw all 20 pgs and it was well worth it

 

Just wanted to send some props your way, Metal. Amazing work.

Think he mentioned only a few weeks left in some other threads.

 

Wow, that is amazing. Patience is key.
