Here is a link to the good ol days with it. It's been without a system since about late 07.

1st set of the 30 some odd sets I have to make.





A large part of this ongoing build will be redoing stuff that was done in a rush the first time. Most of what you see ( or don't ) was done mostly just before a comp or a car show, so there is way more ratsnest then any one car should have. Now that I have time to go through it, I will post up whats being done like it should of the 1st time.

Don't ask for before pics, I didn't take any and I'm sure as hell ain't going to post any.

Today's project was to redo the A pillar gauges. It wasn't some much as an issue as it was for convenience and looks. The wire was scraps and all the connectors were crimped. Now it's pimp. Too bad the only time you will see it is here in pics :lol:



















 

Here is some of what is going in.



And then the control center.



It's a tight fit. And sure to be fun to wire up.



I am using 3 HR-4125's with a total 16 channels of processing. I used 3 HF-1000.1's to mock up where I want them to go



Then you can't forget about the madness.





I haven't decided if I will use 2 Inferno 8.1's or 4 HF-2500.1's yet. Or maybe I will use more

Started off needing a false floor for the center console. The brain and 2 processors will be housed in there as well as the Sirius and the ipod control.













 

Also picked up A new distro block for all my addons.







And have been working on these for days now. I'm about half done.




Added a little more bling for the center console.







More Molex plugs, soldering, Texflex, and shrink wrap.













Got a package in today. Thanks to Scottie Johnson for the great deal on some nice RCA's



[/QUOTE]

Started marking all my channels so I can lay them in the truck tomorrow.









Decided to do the PXA H510 For the rear processor. I have 3 of them so I might as well use one



Besides, Have a sweet spot to add the controller in the rear of the center console



Also picked up a lumber rack for the shop. Now that it has wheels I will move it over to the shop




Have just about all the power side of the control worked out. If all goes well I will have all the RCA's and AI-net, and Speaker wire ran tomorrow.

Then I will pull it all out and PIMP it out with some brand new Second Skin Damplifier Pro Black next week.

Oh and I have some stuff sitting around here thanks to Scottie at XS power.





I needed a solid way to bolt everything down. Sheetmetal screws suck when you have one of these

It's like having pop rivets with threads in the middle











 

ANT over at Second Skin hooked me up proper!

He said I wasn't busy enough so he sent me more work to do



The UPS man hasn't been too happy with me lately. He asked if I had any packages coming in that wasn't over 50 lbs. I said just wait till my sub order comes in





Hard to tell in the pics, but the new black is the ****!



Worked in between the rain drops


Here is what we were working with. At least they tried



























 

The boring part is almost over I promise









Just starting on the final placement of all the wiring.















Added a layer of Luxury Liner. This stuff is killer





Started the 2nd layer of wiring today.





 

Just getting to hooking everything up. It's a slow process of checking and double checking notes as I go.







It's an extremely tight fit. But it all does fit.



Now the second layer



The last od the cables is for the second H701 processor that will be here soon.



Always a good sign when it powers up

Got a few things done this week. I wasn't looking to do the battery swap up front, but once again Optima has let me down. I swear they are the worst batteries I have ever spent money on. When they die, they are dead.

The other great thing this week was that the memory camera took a dump so all the pics I had for y'all were for not. Oh well, here's a few of the after part.  

I still have to fab up some tiedowns for the new batteries. I had to drop a good inch to get clearance. I think it's about as big as I can go up front












Oh yeah, I have some door panels in progress.



 

Got the roof done today. It was an all day process even with my son helping.













 

Getting closer on the doors. Little too cold out to be wrapping. Going to get at it tomorrow when it warms up.





Got one rear quarter panel done. I need to order up some more to do the other side  







I also have been switching out all the lights to blue LED's







And you can't forget the blue lumilogo
