Had a buddy of mine that was in need of an upgrade.
Wanted a deck that would allow him to do everything he wanted but wasn't sure what was available.
JVC to the rescue. This JVC KW-AV70BT Double Din Multimedia unit does it all; coupled with a KS-U30 Video iPod Cord and Sirius' SXV100v1 Tuner Kit, this deck will do HD Radio, Satellite Radio, Bluetooth, Pandora, USB and SD Card reading, as well as DVD Playback with future expansions of a backup camera. This deck doesn't offer Navigation out of the box, but with a simple download of JVC Navigation App on his smart phone, the owner will have a fully featured Navigation unit as well. With a few Metra Vehicla Specific parts, this big beast fit nicely into the 2009 Nissan Frontiers Dash.
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!
Adding to last years upgrade:
Installed a Mono Block Alpine amplifier to push a JL woofer in a ported box.
Rewired the rear speakers to be on the 4 channel Alpine as well.
Cheers
Got the subs in tonight....so might as well.
Threw them all in and the truck is now complete....for now.
Memphis 10" Power Reference Shallow Mount woofers
Digital Designs CM1 1000 watt mono block amp
Custom made rhino lined subbox to fit under rear seat
So Ryan left over the weekend...which allowed me to have the truck.
Round 1 of installs went like this:
JVC DVD/Navigation/HD Radio/Bluetooth/USB Reciever
Bluetooth Mic installed in Gauge Cluster (so you don't look like you are yelling at the top of your windshield)
Satellite Radio installed to reciever
Backup Camera installed near hitch reciever.
Ryan has previously been painting EVERYTHING on his truck two-toned black (new limo black, that has some candy in it). So the middle console area was taped off and painted as well.
So Ryan the Painter (read with the theme of Bob the Builder in your head) has been busy on his truck....and is finally ready for some Trax love (minus the headlights we did).
I've ordered a JVC Navigation DVD player that's going to have SD, iPod, and Aux inputs, Navigation, Back up Camera, HD Radio and Satellite Radio installed. Round 1.
Round 2 will consist of a rhino lined/sealed box with dual 10" Memphis subs getting a healthy 300 watts RMS each...so that should take care of the low end.
For now, he's been painting all the interior parts to match his freshly painted two-toned exterior!!
Sick truck!
Had a friend of a friend want to upgrade his already sick Titan.
Threw in a Pioneer DVD player with iPod and SD audio inputs.
Did a custom bypass on the Pioneer's safety setting, so he can enjoy movies while on the go.
Clean and simple install....keep your eye's on the road bud!!
Had a Nissan Frontier in tonight...busted out a deck and sub/amp install. Whomever sold the customer the amp/sub combo sold them the wrong Sub/Amp combo, but still, with the sub only seeing 200 watts, it still pounded...customer was happy, so that's all the matter.
Yet another reason why Trax Customs is your place to go for all your vehicle needs.....we'll do it right the first time!
Cheers!
