Default [PICS] New Sound SYstem

Since I already posted this in OT, I thought I would post it here for those that don't go there...

My new Head Unit... Clarion DXZ635MP... The install kit I bought months ago from DoctorDan has a storage unit beneath it rather than centering the unit in that double din space.



Amps: 1 4x65 US Acoustics for the 4 speakers, 1 2x100 for the sub
No carpet back there yet, I am in search of a peice of red carpet that will offset all the black...



The sub Kicker Solobaric 8" dual 2ohm



Anyone notice anything...well.... odd?

I meant to do a whole pictorial thing on the install but I forgot until I was almost done.....

The speakers are now hidden behind the stock panels in front and in back.

Nope, that's not it..... the sub is mounted and the box is the passenger-side storage compartment. I emptied the compartment, sealed it and am using that as the enclosure... works pretty well.

I installed the power-antenna bypass and mounted it by the sub. Very inconspicuous, easy to reach.

Turns out that I don't need it :banghead: This new head unit only raises the antenna if you select radio. In CD/MP3 or Aux mode, it doesn't raise it which is the whole reason for the bypass in the first place....

Ah well... :crazy:
