And I tell ya, installing drivers with this size motor upright is a beeyatch.
Yeah I've got some dressing up to do but I'll take it.

Looking great, can't wait to see the finished product. I like how clean the wiring is!

Neat and tidy, too pretty to hidey :D
Re: Babs' 08 Honda Civic Si Sedan

Frogs will NOT take 14 awg.
Break out the solder gun I guess and do pigtails. Yay. :(

So since I'm doing this leaning into the car it's slow damn going. Whole night wasted.
Yes it's a totally unfinished pillar just rough sanded in the car. I was making a last stab at getting it functionally playing for the meet.
Crap like this connector business though.. Gotta love car audio.
Could have done some crimp quick connects but the ones I have on hand, just yuck.
And I'm gonna rant a bit.. The Radio Shack "Helping Hands" contraption.. Did they really need a gazillion pounds of pressure on those alligators (with teeth)? Those things literally will cut through wire insulation. Tried taping them, but the teeth cut through the tape, then damaged the insulation. Yes I was saying some colorful expletives after getting one done then snipping it off because the gator damaged the insulator.

Cut the outside layer of strands off, tin it with solder, slide that heatshrink up, heatshrink it... Presto, smaller diameter wire.

Thats genius!
Re: Babs' 08 Honda Civic Si Sedan
Agreed. Had I not cut them I'd do that. Ah I'm committed now might as well follow through. It'll be convenient though.
