Today me and me new employee worked on a 2011 Nissan 370z. IT was COLD and it SNOWED but he stuck through it and learned a lot.

Already hard at work! We both took a door and he mirrored what I did to the other one.

Doors removed and starting to run new wiring.

Learning to work in tight spots!

Soldering is KEY!!

Rest!

SNOW!

Tweeters installed

Everything mounted and tested. Forgot pics of the head unit and speakers

Ok got the owner to send me the pics, have some more to come so please be patient!!!

Trimmed the battery terminal cover to allow for the power wire to come out.

Work in progress pics of the power wire wake up wire and so on.

Organizing all the wires, zip tied every 6 inches or so. The two grommets towards the top of the rear seats provide great locations to run wires. NOTE make sure to cover them with some kind ot rubber rap and or shielding.

Labeled all the outputs for the amps as for quick reference.

Battery grounded, made sure there was no resistance for this ground.

Amps installed on new rack

Owner wanted easy access to his bass knob and radar

Wiring up all the power wires!!

Here are some finished pictures. Will get more when he comes for tuning. I will also check out if adding the sub to the inputs for summing adds anything.

Fuse block was placed on top of the fuse box for a few reasons.

Quick removal is you need to get to fuses.

Held in place with no drilling any holes.

Perfect location

Also the ground wire was upgraded as well, using the stock grounding location only paint was removed and stock bolt.

Subs installed
