Nearly finished...

Here you can post things about ICE (In Car Entertainment). Like how to install GPS navigation, a DVD-player and other yuppie-stuff. This category might be moved to "those other things" in the end...

Nearly finished...

Post by Dan the 480 Man » Fri Jul 28, 2006 9:30 pm

Just got the carpet to go :D

Built a false floor and raised it roughly 2". Cut a hole so the amp would sink into it, and a further hole so the sub will sink into that. Can then lift the Sub out easily if i need the space and the amp is flush with the floor so can just lay a sheet over it and use the boot again. And because the Sub is dropped into the floor, it doesn't move about either.

Also got an Autoleads Bass controller too, so i can adjust the bass from the front of the car without faffing through the HU menu's. Wanted a nice infinity one really, but they don't do a remote like that for my amp...:(

Quite pleased with it though! :hopping:

Ahhh. Tunes again! :D

Nice looking, Hmmm You don't want to even know what my speaker setup look like. It's a mix of cheap no money/job type thing who still wants to have some 6x9's.

Dannus that looks great mate!

The controller in the dash is just like the Electronic Boost Controller in my Thema!
How irrelevant!
