Thumbs up Another build, some more pics.....

So this friend of mine finally gets a toy to play with....a 1990 Accord sedan.

He calls me up and says, "I wanna put some audio in my new toy, got anything left?"

"Yes I do" I says....so he brings the car over....and over....and over.....

Took a few pics along the way.....hope I can get these links to work.....

Equipment consists of:

Deck: Kenwood KDC-MP345U

Fronts: Clarion SSS-601 comps
Front amp: Clarion DPX2251- benched it at 155W X 2 @ 4ohm stereo....

Rears: none....took out what was there, he can't hear them anymore anyways.....

Sub Amp: Kicker DX700
Subs: 3 JL 10W0-8s in a spec box

Wires, RCAs, deadener etc. etc.

Pics:

Doors all covered in shiny stuff:

Sorry, no pics of the deck in the dash, just forgot to take any.....

It sounded pretty good right off the bat, there will be a tuning session in the driveway this weekend to tighten up a couple of issues......

He was so impressed he joined the board......I think I have turned another mild mannered suburbanite into a bass head.....

Thanks for looking......

Hey, she told me not to spend any $$ on the new grocery gitter.....so I won't....

She does miss the old system but she's happy with the factory deck with those nifty steering wheel controls......

What can I say.....
