Fun weekend... I am an audio n00bert plus I hate wiring...







Still a work in progress though.

 

Nice setup. BTW you have a PM...

 

I love to wire, did you get it right on the first try....

looks good, so whats next?

 

Just responded, thanks.

Yup, got it right. I mapped it out on a spreadsheet first and connected everything off the car. This was much easier than my ongoing Emanage harness project.

In terms of audio, need to wire up the PAC for the steering wheel controls and figure out why the sub levels are so low (I am keeping the stock speakers, amp, and sub just swapping HUs).

 

Looks good. Just a headunit? I need a new one as well

 

looks good , i like the Head unit lights . Really bright

 

Did you do the steering wheel controls yet??

 

Maybe this weekend...

 

Nice turnout.

 

Nice setup, I have the same one. The only thing I didn't like is the gap between the head unit and the pocket. I shaved the radio trim to give it a flush fit...

 

Thanks. Do you have the iPod adapter? Where and how are you running the iPod cable into the cabin? Or even the USB cable in the back of the HU? I know some people use the glove compartment, but I'm not going that route.

I'm cutting a slit in the back of the pocket to run the cables out that way so that the connectors and devices can be concealed in the pocket if necessary.

 

Oh yeah, for the 1% of you who don't know what the stock set up looked like, here's an older picture:



I know, it is cleaner, but the stock HU sucked and having been through three refurbed ones, it was time to move on. I also didn't want to blow the money on a double din.

 

I do have it, but am not running it at the moment. I too would go that route and just hide it inside the pocket. Big plus of having the flip down pocket. Looks clean, simple and has a good purpose.

 

Time to take apart the climate control and wire up some red leds to match the HU B)

 

man you think that sucks? you haven't seen mine. of alll people i should be the one getting a new head unit....

 

Don't get me wrong, it looks perfectly fine, but the CD player barely worked and playing the iPod via an FM modulator didn't quite cutting it. Just thought it was a good time for an upgrade. I also love the built in Bluetooth on the Eclipse.

 

The problem is that the Eclipse has 6 illumination patterns. So since I have ADD and get sick of things quickly, I have to change my CC LEDs every time I switch?

FYI - it is no longer blue + red, I'm using amber now. Just cause I can.

 

had this ever since i got the car.
TAPE PLAYER barely works and display is messed up.
why i haven't changed it still...dunno, money spent on other things i guess
