Installed a new Kenwood DDX9704S Head Unit to go with my recently installed Rockford Fosgate amps, Polk speakers, and subs.

If anyone is on the fence about replacing their stock audio system, do not hesitate, my upgraded system sounds amazing. The addition of the front and rear cameras is pretty cool too.

They are actually screwed together. Very stable. I tried to shake the car as hard as I could to make sure. The foot print of each block is 24" x 16"

I think I just bought a new one, does that count, since it's not officially mine?

Pulled off the factory negative battery terminal and replaced with a normal one with stud mount. I saw a post recently about using marine grade terminals similar to this. I cut the end of the terminal off and flattened/cleaned up enough space to mount over the 3/8" stud. I'll cut the wire & solder terminals on at some point but was running out of time today. Works slick and now just needs fingers for the wing nut instead of a 10mm on the balky OEM nut when it needs a reboot.



Replaced the hood struts too. Last time I had to reboot the thing the hood bashed me on the noggin



Washed & dried ALL THE CARS!
