Cuztom! Great job making the car your own

 

hids






new stuff came in

 

That looks real nice.

 

Looks great! It also looks like you have access to a great garage...

 

Very nice!

As MightyP noticed... you have a solid place to work. Please tell me that isn't your personal garage, or I will be seriously jealous.

 

haha. yeah i wish. nah, i work for car toys as an installer. got pretty much anything i need except a lift, but thats not a big deal

speaking of which, i will be posting up some wiring info shortly for all the diy guys. gotta type it all up so itll take me a min, lol. but figured theres a few people that could benefit from it

 

goose_119,

does your ipod connect to the HU? what did you do about making stock usb connection work with the p43000 ?

 

i didnt use the stock plugs. i ran my cable into the glovebox. i dont like the stock usb being out in open so i had to stare at cables and my ipod all the time

 

i see, i haven't had time/dont really have a need to open mine up yet and i haven't see the back of the p43000...

by any chance did you notice if the stock would connect to the HU? or if there would have to be some adapter to make it work?

when I do my sound...I like to do it in one install so I'm just wondering about all the parts I need to get before hand

 

the aftermarket head unit is usb / 3.5 plug. the stock ones are just wires so you would have to splice into it to make it work

 

I did the Dynamat thing...check it out here.

didnt snap any pictures, but i did everything but the front / back seat floors. went a little more overboard than you cuz of my system though. put an entire bulk pack just in the front doors, inner and outer skin, with 1/2 inch dynaliner on entire outer skin, and 1/8 inch dynaliner on door panels. then 2-3 layers of dynamat on every surface of the back end, more 1/2 inch dynaliner covering entire rear speaker area, and floor of hatch area on top of the dynamat. 2 layers of 12 inch dynaliner where spare tire was to bring the floor level and help out more since i removed the spare tire and floor for my system

 

yeah, I wanted to ask you about the different types of Dynamats you used. I only used the one type all over and only overlapped in some places where the seams came together. Did you use any of that DynaTape? I didn’t. It would be very cool to compare the two cars side-by-side in a road test...
