In what picture?

Thanks SoloCon

I ended up getting a Pioneer DEQ-7600, it should be on its way tomorrow


I decided on getting the Pioneer for now because I still need to get my:
~ gps (both software and hardware)
~ amp for fronts
~ new fronts
~ new touchscreen overlay

These are the things I'm going to be doing in the next few weeks. This past weekend i ran 14 guage from the hatch to the front doors for when i get my amp. If anyone finds a Kenwood 2 or 4 channel amp for a good price let me know (it must be the 06 model and match my sub amps style)

Well i ordered my Kenwood 7202 yesterday, i also ordered some colored usb cables that light up to go in when i make a plexi cutout in my computer cover. I'm going to order a couple fans to put in it too. I've found another Dell gx150 for my electronics and have decided that i'm going to build a self for them that will look somewhat like this (from narandomsortofw install)

I received my usb cables and amp today. I got the amp installed and it makes my fronts sound 100 times better. I can't wait to get new components. I will get pictures up tomorrow when i receive the processor and get it put in. Right now I'm also redoing the bezel because there were a few spots i wasn't happy with. As of now I'm looking for parts for my controlling pc and my gps hardware and software, but until tomorrow.....

I was debating on what i wanted to do for paint for the reworked bezel with processor in (which isn't lined up in the pics) and i decided to just go all out and do a "wild" color for the bezel.. heres that i ended up with. keep in mind it is darker than it appears.....





I know alot of people arn't going to like it, but it is my car and i want something that stands out. I plan to also do these pieces along with the speaker covers.


Well i got my amp mounted


I'm currently in the process of selling my L7 and I've decided on either the G5 or a Type X. Whichever one i get I'm going to fiberglass a box with it mounted regularly and have the amps countersunk on either side of it (will also be painted orange to match).

Well i got off work Friday and came home to get ready to go out of town for the weekend and low and behold my drivers door wouldn't open... Turns out that i broke a plastic piece in the part that moves the lock over the bolt. I had to tear the door panel halfway off while the door was stuck shut just to see what was wrong. I will be getting a new piece this week to see how is works so i can get the old one to open the door (the bolts are on the jam part of the door). Oh well, at least i can look for new interior parts while at the junk yard (i'm wanting a Firebird dash).

On a happier note i did make it out of town (just had to dukes of hazard it thru the t-tops all weekend lol) and the computer worked great for the 250 miles

Tonight i worked on my skin some more because i really need to get it wrapped up because i'm starting a pc install in a friends car and he wants me to design him a skin by the end of this month when we hit up our first show.

Man, that's some bad luck with the door. Maybe you can post a pic of what broke for future reference. I've never heard of this happening before.

The 2 amps look cool, but the wires detract a little.
