Interesting build. I wrestled with batteries or hi output alternator for a while and decided to go with a 220Amp alternator and one Optima. I've got a 96 Eldorado.

So what have you got left to do?

**migitcheetah** · 08-26-2009, 12:40 AM

well i still need subs. im going for 2 jl 13w7's, and then an amp for them... the fosgate t4000db. and then i have to build that in and then.... im planing on upgradeing the alternator aswell, and finish the center console. and hopefully upgrade my monitor to a vga display. or just ad a second vga displaye touchscreen.... after that i have body work to do. shaved door handles. and the magic touch door pops. a set of 20"s and some nice tires vogue if i can. haha. the ni think i will be finished. still deciding weather to put air ride suspension or not. but well see. what happens...

Judging by the looks of your car, I'd say that if you remove the center console you'll find the same thing I did....all the electronics housed behind the side covers. To see what you'll be in for, check this link
