Take off the caps lock dude. And you can find countless pics on Car Domain.

 

I have a Eclipse in my 86, however I like the Alpine units more.

 

this is what i have in my trunk:

but for hu, i have a pioneer deh-6600
idont have any pics of it, but never got anything stolen, nothing yet lol...
but i do live in (INDIANA) so not a lot of ppl do that hear, besides the college students....
but as longest you keep ur volume down, when your going through a big crowd, that way you wont keep their attention, and they'll come after u sometimes (steal your system, or something else)
good luck on a decision

I Have A Nother Question Has Any Body Had A Problem With The Speakers Turning Off On The Bose System When The Cd Is Playing My Left Side Always Turns Off When I Hit A Bump But When I Switch It To The Radio It Works Fine

Any One With The Same Problem Or Ever Had One Just Like It

 

Holy crap what's with the CAPS... daMN.... Itr is a common problem with the 02-03 HU. There is a fix in the stickies I think.. search and you will find HO to Fix it.

 

Alpine CDA-9853
Alpine SWX 1242d 1 12"
JL XR 650's 2 sets 6.5" components
Alpine f545 for interior speakers 500 watts rms to 4 channels
Alpine MRD-m1005 for sub 1000 watts rms mono


i really don't think i have heard much better, the acoustics in the max are pretty good. i'll get some pictures in here asap

 

sorry i have no pic but i had a jl w7 and running it with a jl 1000/1 amp

 

bose HU, seems stock until the bass comes on, also not very likely to get stolen since it would be a PITA to get it out of there.

 

what exactly did you do here?

 

[IMG][/IMG]

this is what i have left of my system just need that new head unit and it will go back in the car

 

Clean install man! DIY?

 

Alpine 9833
Arc Audio 4150 XXK ---> Dynaudio 360MK 3-way
Arc Audio 2500 XXK ---> 2 x Alumapro Alchemy RX
Rainbow SL 165 (rear fill)
All Stinger Expert wiring/interconnects/etc.

How do I like it? I fuggin love it.

 

What amp and free air sub is that? =D

 

put an 8" in the original sub location and got a alpine amp wired in to work with everything else stock.

yes

sony explod 900 watt, not sure if its free air but it works good with the trunk closed and even open.

 

Well you have it mounted like a free-air sub.

 

uhhhh, yes i no. and it works awesome so i wont complain.

 

well then...

 

Couldn't find the fix in the stickies anyone know where to find it or the fix?

 

Your amp is going to die an early death, you can mount it to your speaker deck but mount it the rightway up on metal strap brackets. You're not getting sufficient cooling! My best friend owns a two stereo shops and has seen this lots before, just giving you a heads up!

 

i don't care for making anything look OEM...but if i were to go IB i'd use an IDv3 or something along those lines...or even an RL-I 8" (since i'm such an SS groupie..)



powered by this beast http://img9.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sv3002797ix.jpg

thinkin about either going sealed or just using one of the subs and building a new ported box for that...my ears have definitely taken enough of a beating...



no pics of mids or my speak amp...just CDT EF's powered by an eclipse EA4000...

no pics of my h/u either but no one wants to see one unless its got an LCD right??

 

Hooper, could you do a writeup of how you installed and wired your setup in back? I'm really interested in upgrading that sub in back but didn't know it was possible with the stock bose head.

Dont have any pics in car, Finish Wiring the new system up first
Clarion 845MC head unit and soon Clarion 7in Flipdown screen and PS2

showoff

i've always loved your setup

 

So what made you pick that radio? It looks interesting but flows with the dash u have ...

 

Its JDM, its rare(i like rare things), its highend...it has a tube in the signal path- just outright sounds awesome and a great conversation piece as well

I was sick of having a pocket, and really not into nav or dvd. I just made sense for the center piece of a comp car as it intrigued me for a few years already.

I just need to get a custom piece cut for the dash kit to clean up the gap.

 

I had the same gap issue with AVN. The Sosche kit seemed to solve it

 

wtf...and I just dumped $100 on an GXE kit!!

I could've swore Crutchfield carried it in the past,however i see something similar to the metra kit available now. Igor,any linkies? Would it be considered a 2k-2k1 kit piece?

 

Here is the stitty part but Im sure you can handle it.

I too sold my GXE kit, it made about 1/2" gap at the top.

The new version of the maxima sosche kits (i got on ebay) comes with a built in pocket...I have to dremel it off (not that hard).

Color match is 110% and fitment is amazing. Check ebay
