Weekend project...
It was incredibly sunny today and warm for a little while, so I decided to start off a weekend project. The audio system in my car was shot...I originally had two amps (seen here)
for my front and rear speakers, one of which had rotted out causing speaker distortion. Last week I bought one amp to replace them with and today felt like the day to make the change. After opening the dashboard and verifying the wiring I removed the old amps and restripped the wires. Screw in the new amp, test each speaker and it's location. Finally I screwed the housing board back into place and guided wires underneath. I was running out of daylight, so the wires will have to stay visible for now. Sometime later on I'll drill holes and run the cables straight through for a nice clean finish. There you have it,
my new Alpine MRP-F300 install. There's another talent I'll add to my resume...car audio installer!!! Now that I've gotten this install to work on my own car I feel comfortable saying that hahaha. Let me know what you guys think or if you need some info/work.

I need a project like this. When this semester is over, I think I might be switching out the sub and amp from the BMW. I bought a sub for mad cheap on ebay a while back and got a new amp 90% off from circuit city. Lets just hope they work.
ReplyDelete90% off?!?!?! thats perfect! lemme know if you need any assistance...did u hear ray is getting married?
ReplyDeleteYeah man... I saw the amp sitting there, then when they said everything was 90% off i had to get off line and make sure i got that. I heard he proposed a while back, but do they have a date set?
