So slowly but surely I've been getting parts for the truck.
So far we have:
Black Replacement Carpet (Switching Interior from Blue to Black with Grey Accents)
Custom Made Seat Covers
Sport Mirrors
Custom Range Rover Front Clip (Headlights will be retro'd and LED'd out)
Smoked Tails
Just this week I received all my audio equipment:
Digital Designs 6.5" Component System x 2
Digital Designs 8" 2500 series Subwoofer, custom platnium carbon fiber dust cap
Digital Designs MONSTER SS5 5 Channel Amp - 120x4, 800x1 (yup, you read that right)
So, now I just have to find the time to tear into it, get it ready for Paint (Full body paint) and then the audio nonsense can begin.
Words cannot express how excited I am about this beast of a sub.....800 watts RMS....giggidy!
Had a customer come in with some Power Acoustic Dual DVD Player Headrests he wanted put in....but he also wanted a way to integrate in his Xbox when needed.
Simple .... I hardwired in a 300 watt Stinger Power Converter and custom mounted a Stinger "Game Plate" in the existing spot where his un-used rear audio controls were.
He was somewhat ok with just having the built in FM Mod for sound throughout the car, but I informed him of iSimple's latest products and he was IN. Now he has crystal clear iPod audio input, as well as a Mini Jack audio input and hardwired DVD audio.
After all the dust settled he can no Listen to songs from his iPod, Listen to the DVD player that is showing off his new Dual 8.5" screens, as well as plug in an Xbox and play video games on-the-go.
Pretty cool road trip upgrade...his kids are going to love it!
Twas another chilly morning...but that never stops me.
It was a nice warm 46 degrees in the shop....so I put the heaters to work as I started in on this one.
Customer had an existing Pioneer AVIC-X930BT DVD player and wanted to add a subwoofer and backup camera for better low end sound; as well as bypass the Pioneer's Safety setting to allow video playback whilst driving.
Customer choose the JL Audio Stealthbox, made specifically for his Nissan; which fit almost perfectly like it would stock. This was pushed by a 300/1 mono block JL Audio digital amp.
I ninja mounted the amp under the rear cargo area floor, so it's outta sight outta mind....and he can throw anything back there and not worry about damaging anything.
Mounted the backup camera flush mount style on the rear bumber.....only went through 3 hole saw bits and 30 mins of dremeling to get this baby mounted....but she's in there now.
Cheers!
Had a client come in with a Phoenix Gold Amp and a Alpine Type S Bandpass box he wanted thrown in his Accord.
He's already installed a PAC iPod adapter, so he didn't need a new deck installed.....so I simply installed a new PAC interface behind the stock deck to give me Audio Outs.....put the amp under the driver seat, which is covered nicely by the floor mat, and the sub is easily removable if trunk space is needed.
Thing pounds for a 4 channel amp.......which means the customer will be back to install a good front stage speaker system down the road.
Cheers!
Had a 2003 Subaru WRX come in for an amp install.
Old school Eclipse amp to push the front speakers and rear Custom JL Sub.
Installed the amp under the seat and called it a day.
So those speakers......yeah, they're going in this.
Sick 2011 MB Boat.....think is nasty. Had a full Wet Sounds system in it already and a Clarion Deck.....just needs towers....and that's where I come in....thought I'd post these, as the owners son hasn't seen the boat yet, so he'd be able to catch a glimpse!!
Till next week (on this project anyways)
Finally get a chance to hear this wicked pair of tower speakers from Memphis Car Audio.
They'll be powered by the Memphis Marine 4 channel amp getting roughly 120 watts each (should be plenty of power to make those horn tweeters scream) and 2 spare channels to add a subwoofer down the road (if needed).
These will be going in a brand new 2011 MB boat....so until then....cheers!
