Here are a few older installs 97 Volvo 850. It was probably one of the more easier installs I have done. Here are some picks of the install.:cool:
The loot http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1049.jpg The wiring harnesses getting ready to be all soldered http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1058.jpg The hole for usb port http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1076.jpg The usb port http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1079.jpg The sirius radio power plug lets mod it a little http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1065.jpg Open it up http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1066.jpg Solder it up http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1082.jpg Heat shrink it all ready for being wired behind the dash after being wrapped in electrical tape. http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1083.jpg Location of sat radio needs some mounting http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...o/100_1070.jpg |
Not many pics but I also did a amp and a sub in this when he gets back from iraq I will finish it.
Here he comes http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...l/100_0993.jpg The Loot http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...l/100_0989.jpg Open Her up http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...l/100_0990.jpg Head unit installed no pics of wiring :( http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...l/100_0991.jpg He is out until next time http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...l/100_0988.jpg |
This one was a big one I will quote his review so you can read it.
So Matt helped me install a kickass system in my 2008 Accord. It took a couple of days and a lot of driving but it was definitely worth it. Matt is a chill guy and we got along well right from the start. I pulled into his driveway on Saturday morning a little before 8am and he had all of his tools and supplies laid out and ready to go. We installed: JL C5-650 components in front JL C5-650x coaxials in rear JL Slash 300/4v2 amp Infinity 10" Basslink JL CleanSweep MTX Re-Q Dynamat Xtreme on floor, doors, rear deck and under back seat We started off by stripping the interior of the car: http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00942s.jpg Then we jumped right into laying down the Dynamat .. here is the passenger's-side floor: http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00949s.jpg Door before Dynamat http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00954s.jpg Door after Dynamat http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00967s.jpg Fuse holder mounted http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00979s.jpg Cleansweep wired up, not yet secured http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00989s.jpg Amp being wired up http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00988s.jpg One of the rear crossovers mounted http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00987s.jpg Finished!! http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00993s.jpg http://3rror.org/nkimages/audio/smaller/DSC00994s.jpg Overall it took us about 25 hours spread out over 4 days (with breaks and stuff). Matt made the two and a half hour drive up to my place twice without hesitation. He did great work and I learned a lot along the way .. if you need any car audio stuff done, contact matt (AIM reimermatt), you won't regret it. |
Here is my friends car that I did
Project Red Dragon - Car Audio Forum - CarAudio.com And here is mine Project Black Dragon - Car Audio Forum - CarAudio.com |
I will be doing another install soon.

Here is when it was all done. Most of you have seen these by now.

Questions? This is your go to guy!
I cant recommend Matt enough. I started off having a few questions, and he answered them without hesitation. Im suprised how patient he was with me, since im a total newb. He explained everything from OHM, RMS, bridging, wiring, etc. Its obvious, he has a lot of experience under his belt and he know his stuff. He is more than willing to help. Any questions on installations, well this is your guy! Also take a look at some of his previous work at the other forums, and they look pretty solid. Thanks again Matt!

No problem man anytime!!!

Revo Sys 7 double din DVD/Carputer
Install any one of these in a 350/370Z? Is this system sound good or best for a carputer?
Are 5.1 surrond systems in cars over-rated? |
Quote:
Yes 5.1 systems are way overrated in a car there is no reason for them. Plus true Sound Quality setups are just front speakers and a sub or 2. And even putting one in a Z would completely be pointless there is no acoustic room for a surround effect in that car. Also when is someone going to sit in there car and watch a entire dvd? I mean I see no reason to have 5.1 surround sound in a car. Not telling you that it can not be done but it is not cheap and not easy to setup either. |
Did this one a few years ago but the guy was getting ready to sell it so I snapped some pics.
Here is an older install I did it was about 2 years ago. The car was a 96 Vw Jetta it was my 3rd time doing head rest tvs it was very tricky and still is to me lol. But here are some picks. Front Doors http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...a/IMG_5280.jpg Head units "didn't do the fiberglass but and getting ready to learn it" http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...a/IMG_5282.jpg Rear tv's http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...a/IMG_5289.jpg http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...a/IMG_5286.jpg Rear Deck infinitys don't ask me why he wanted them in the back and the polks in the front. http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...a/IMG_5303.jpg Cd changer http://i483.photobucket.com/albums/r...a/IMG_5276.jpg It also had 2 hifoinic amps mounted to the rear seats and the wires tucked threw the seat itself. There was also a box with 2 kikcer l5's. It was nice to bad I did not get picks of them. |

Matt, I really like how well organized you are for your installs. It shows attention to detail which any customer wants to see. Your installs prove you know your sh*T, but IMHO you really gotta work on your builds. Nothing like a CLEAN install/build to compliment the brains it takes to properly install and "calibrate" a system ya know. Aesthetically, it leaves a little to be desired. SQ is where I'm sure you make that up though.
|
For those of you that use yahoo messenger. Good news! I just made one it is the same as aim reimermatt
|
Thanks for your time haha. You practically compiled my entire build for me. You have no idea how excited I am to see all of this come together.
|
No problem man can not wait. For those of you who do not know I am being flown to LA to do 2 installs both in 370Z's, I will be sure to take plenty of pictures of both cars.
|
Hey, can you travel to Northern Jersey?
|
Sure can!!
|
Okay, I've been looking for an aftermarket nav + rear view cam set up...
Still looking for something nice! |
I would go with a nice alpine or kenwood receiver, the kenwoods have better GPS and blue tooth, but to me the alpines have a better audio signal and better interface for the ipod, and the same rear camera that AK used in his install that I did. Feel free to hit me up on aim at reimermatt or the same for yahoo.

Bump for just being bored.

This is a quote from another forum about me just though i would share.
"This guy is seriously one of the nicest people I've met in a while, after talking via AIM for an hour or two, we met up and got my aftermarket head unit to work. Very friendly and well mannered. Def hit him up if you need help, highly recommended!" Need Help? Let Me Know - Page 2 - Honda Civic Forum |

|
Sounds good man that custom led headlight mod should be fun! I look forward to it.

I can not show you much as i am waiting for him to give his write up. But here is a little tease.

I just finished a small write up about the install and thought I'd link this thread to the one I posed in the audio forum.
Thanks, Matt...job well done. Kenwood DNX5120 Navigation with Bluetooth and iPod Install |
