Matt does a VERY clean install and oh boy does he have the patience to do this stuff. I know there were many times I was sitting inside grabbing a drink while he was slaving away in the 90+ degree weather outside HAHA. That one night we were working on the car in that parking lot until 1AM was good times too; I almost felt like sleeping on the floor but Matt was determined to have most of it done before he called it a night.

I can grab some pictures and some videos, but of what? Haha.

All in all, I LOVE the setup. Matt recommended me each and every single piece of equipment. He even made sure at least five times that I had everything ready to go before he started installing it. I even had some extra stuff that I didn't even know about. I still need to adjust the gains and such and some more fine tuning, but I'm definitely happy with all of it.

Rely glad to hear it Derek, I hope that I will see you again one day. I think people would like to see video of everything running and the system UP! And maybe a few pics as well for the rear camera as well. If someone wants to see something specific just ask one of us I am sure we have it or can get it.

Is someone making fun of me or trying to start a trend with the teddy bear in the back?

Nice install! The bundle of wires still gives me goosebumps.

Sharing my setup with his... e.g., his is DNX-9140 whereas mine is DDX-814 (no navi).

bigaudiofanat · 08-31-2009, 11:51 PM

Oh got ya.

OVERZLUS · 09-02-2009, 02:47 PM

Where did you mount the crossovers? Pics?

bigaudiofanat · 09-02-2009, 02:49 PM

Your kick panels take them off and put them right there. They fit perfectly there. A lot of people put them in the doors but I though that would be a better place. No pics FTL

bigaudiofanat · 09-02-2009, 02:51 PM

I do have this pick though of the night we worked on it in the back of my hotel.

polarity · 09-02-2009, 03:59 PM

Looks like a great install and a fun time, although I have to say, seeing that beautiful new car all disassembled like that almost makes me cry.....all part of the process I know but wow heh..
