Babs' 08 Honda Civic Si Sedan

I finally broke down and did a thing.. Sometimes the work is on tools themselves. Had a Bench Dog router plate but nothing to put it in. Acquired a work table.

Sub IB wall going back in..



Its kind of the starting point for the false floor because the bottom panel just aft the wall will be attached to the wall by a couple L-brackets. So that plate is attached to the sides by two straight brackets, and those panels by two 1/4” bolts into rivnuts. So hopefully it’ll all be nice and secure.

Tested this spot and appears to be a decent ground point which will hopefully work nicely for the extra battery negative.





At this point I'm buttoning it up with amp wiring to put power to it hopefully soon. Stinks when I pretty much only get a weekend day here and there to work on it.

Baffle wall back in officially


System pos and ground





Just making sure she’s prepped



Quite a janky way to do it I’m sure but use whatcha got.. And I got gaffer tape.


This is going to be a pain for sure. A few of these don’t bend so well.






After routing wires behind the liner it pushed them in a bit so stuff doesn’t quite fit. No problem trimming.


So it’s a matter of wiring up at this point then throwing the switch.

Let the wire therapy begin:

You guys got a favorite speaker wire that’s flexible and good OFC stuff? Knu? Stinger etc etc?

This 14x2 jacketed stuff is simply not conducive for the turns and space I’ve got to put it in between the amp and terminals where the car runs will hook up.

This weekend’s work I did a thing with speaker wiring on the amp rack.. Stinger 12awg, wire ferrules and fork terminals, shrink wrapped, labeled, tied and routed.. Wow was this a time suck, but I think it’ll work hopefully.

Just curious since it could be a direct swap.. Feeler if anyone might be interested in my Helix Pro-2 with USB HEC? Functionally and cosmetically great. I’m contemplating maybe the DSP.3 as it could be a direct swap without changing out director wiring.
