Default Amp Install

Does anyone out there with experience want to help me install a couple amps in my xB? We can do it at my house while we drink cold Cerveza (or Soda) and eat BBQ'ed Red Meat (Carne Asada) Let me know. I am located on the west side of Corona, Next door to Yorba Linda.

that will work, all you need to hook up the amps is a LINE OUT CONVERTOR, which will make it so you have rca cables to hook into the amp!~

last question is, are you willing to spend some money on the wiring? saturday is probably not good, but i can definately help you sunday



just to let you know, the RCA thing, i suggest gett a PAC-2 OEM coverter, it's about $50, if not, we can tap into your speaker wires since you're not going to use them anyway

I'm estimating about $70-$100 on wires

you are planning on using the 4 channel amp for the stock speakers right?
