My Boot Install Process (56K No Go!)

[Stu_c]

Some of you may have seen my last last install probably at the French Car show, I have now changed my install again here is my process.

After Months And Months of designs and thinking what to go for i have finaly finished my install.

My Old Install

THE PLAN
To Fit the following:
2 x Genesis Profile Sub Ultra's
1 x Profile Four Ultra
1 x Audio Control Epicenter
Pair Of Alpine Crossovers
1 x Optima Yellow Top Battery

The first thing was to rip out the old install and Sound Deaden.

Second Battery Holder for Boot
I will be fitting a Optima Yellow Top Battery in the boot along with a trickle charge system, it will be screwed down to this is the spare wheel compartment.

Holder fitted alone with false floor
A false floor is fitted for the subs to sit level across the wheel compartment

False Floor Part 2
This is going to be for the Crossovers and Epicenter

Test Fitting
Making Sure They Fit ok

Carpeting

I think that you have done a great job mate! You should be proud of yourself!

 

[clio__chris]

well its very well done but cant help but think the car would be much more enjoyable without all that extra weight (+ the obligatory) imo

 

[Stu_c]

i find doing soundsystems enjoyable

 

[biglad58]

Be proud mate, thats pretty amazing

 

[Stu_c]

thanks i am not quiet finished yet but most of it is done just little visual bits to do

 

[Djw John]

Very good mate

 

[Cookie]

Tidy!

Do you not find it annoying not being able to see out the back?

 

[Adam]

[Deeg]

[Djw Dave]

[Mickb]

stu i dont like subs and boom box cars that shake my windows as they go past, but that my friend is a true work of art. would love to see it up close. the carpeting looks very very good, and i so glad that, since you have decided to do it, you havent gone down the neons and plastic s**t box look!!

a big well done!!

and no Im not 40 lol half that

jamie

 

[jonnyRT]

looks very well done, bet the bass is amazing i saw the kicker hummer at trax and that was mental!

how come you have 3 amps and only 2 subs?

 

[Laura]

change the subs lol,
other than that good effort

surly though would make sense to have 4 amps 2 on each then run them parallel , bridged, one slave on master for each sub

 

[Stu_c]

the two bottom amps are profile sub ultra's 1000 Rms each "Genesis Ratings so about 1300 Rms actual rating" one for each sub

and then the top is a four channel amp for my components

 

[Stu_c]

Thanks for the kinda comments people ill be at the FCS if anyone is interested

 

[Stu_c]

finshed all my carpeting today

 

[Capture_db]

wow man that is one amazing install i wouldnt even know where to start wiring it up, im having to research just how to wire up shelf 6x9 lol

looks amazing nice one

 

[RichMcc]

So how much slower is it with an extra half a ton in the boot j/k

Great install tho fair play, can you see anything in your rear view mirror?

 

[kpowell911]

The kicker hummer is quiet Believe me

Check out some of the cars on Talk Audio if you want loud........

 

[Stu_c]

the view isnt as bad as you may think i decided to put the whole of the amp on a hinge so by simply flicking the rear seats forwards and unclipping a few bits the whole amp will fold down towards the front

 

[d4nn3h]

Very nice

 

[W17GLE]

great job that i love it far better than my install mines a mess

 

[graham_172]

I'm not a fan of filling the car with ice but i must say. well done, keep it up. There's a business venture awaiting you i'm sure.

 

[S22 JGS]

done a good job matey, and worth being proud of it - personally though i dont understand the whole big sounds in car thing.

 

[Stu_c]

THB its more of a hobby, alos got 4 tv screens and a playstation

 

[Stu_c]

Final Steps​

Added Deading to boot panel

once i done it i had to put all the clips back into the boot door

problem i had was the deadening, the clips didnt wanna clip in the holes fully, so i put a little bit of super glue on both the clip and the boot and held fine,

now carpeted the rest of the boot:
Before

After

 

[Virtual_Unknown]

Thats dam impressive fella, although my favourite part of it has to be the tidied wiring, that must have taken you ages and something i could never be bothered to do on any of my installs

 

[Stu_c]

the wiring took me about 3 days alone very happy with it nothing rattels now.... well from the wires n e way

 

[Mickb]

agree with taylor, personal opinion id go for sumthing else. xxx if could afford it or oz matrix but looks spot on mate. long as your pleased

 

[Stu_c]

bit hard as the boxes are made for squares lol

 

[Leeshez]

Stunning .

 

[Stu_c]
