This has the potential to be quite the striptease. Hope you two get it knocked out tomorrow. What did you use for battery hardware/lugs?
Those batteries take 6mm bolts so just the 30 cent ones from the bin at the local hardware store. 1/0 gauge ring terminals that come in 20 packs on
Amazon fit the 2/0 gauge welding cable with a little work so we just bought a pile of those and jumped everything. It was labor intenstive but I figured the wire was cheap and it would be simpler and neater than trying to rig up buss bar due to the shape of the tops of the batteries.
Anyway, all that's left is to wire up the amps and put the seats back in in the morning then we're up and running...... sort of.
The door panels were wrecked when he bought the car so those are hanging on by a thread. We put a set of components in the stock location and one in the holes that were already carved in his doors. Next year we will fiberglass the door panels and add more speakers. The amp is like 1600W X 2 or something rediculous so for now we're running 8 ohm and going to keep the gain dialed way down. Really the ONLY reason we bought this amp was for cosmetics... They make a cute couple!
Baffle is not lined up right since we have it temped up with just some foam weather stripping and long screws. I suspect that 3 subs along the bottom and a top port will work better in the shape/space we wound up with. I have no idea where tuning is going to come in and this does need to be musical.
Sealing around the sides of the box will have to wait and he has ordered a new carpet because his was pretty well ruined from him leaving a window down last week. We may also need more batteries and I definitely want to see a voltage display up front (we ran wire for it).
Subs are some Shocker Sig 12's with all American made softparts. I forgot to take pics of them as we were going today but I have some on my phone I'll upload later perhaps.
Again. Dismal door locations but the doors came with gaping holes there so we filled them. I really like these JBL components for the money.
