Finally getting around to starting my build and I can't promise it'll happen fast, but it will happen LOL
Vehicle:
2006 Lexus RX330
Gear:
Alpine iLX-W650 Head Unit
JL Audio TWK88 Processor
Morel Tempo Ultra 692 tweeter and 6x9 Midbass
Morel MSW114 4'' Midrange
Soundstream TN2.600D (midbass)
Soundstream TN4.900D (tweet/midrange)
Soundstream TN1.1200D (sub)
Audiomobile GTS 2110 S2
Deadening:
46.5 sqft Sonic Barrier MX-4 Max
18 sqft Noico 80 mil
1/2 lb/sqft MLV
Butyl Rope
Cloth Tape
1/16'' PSA backed CCF
Bonded Cotton Radiant Barrier
Charging System:
240-amp JS Alternator (ordered)
1/0 Main Power Wire
1/0 Ground Upgrades (multiple extra grounds)
1/0 Alternator Cable/Ground
6/0 Battery Ground
Everstart AGM Group 24F
I did not get pictures of the ground and power upgrades, but here's what I have done;
-6/0 ground to car body from battery
-1/0 ground from 6/0 body location to engine block and firewall ground
-1/0 from passenger side body to 2 spot on engine block, one being the alternator
-1/0 main charging cable from battery to alternator (in progress)
-4 gauge starter wire (car cranks stupid fast now)
Plans are for a relatively simple head unit install with a Metra kit, harness and steering wheel controls adapter.
Midbass will go in an extremely deadened door with a baffle made from 3/4 black HDPE stacked to 1.5''
Midrange and tweeter will go into custom fiberglass a-pillars.
Subs, amp and processor will go under a stock-looking cargo area floor. Design is still in process. I have some red acrylic, some aluminum laminated ABS and a few other fun materials I may consider using. May have an LED strip or two hanging around.
