    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Fixed it.. I stoked. Thanks for all the suggestions. After spending half the day chasing vibrations, rattles and stressing about how to fix the trunk rattle/noise I took a step back and did some Goggling. I went to Crutchfield's website and they had all the info I needed. All I needed to do...

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Really.. I was looking at some today but wasn't sure what would fit. Do you have picture of the right profile that will fit?

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Thanks for the adhesive idea, I never thought of that. I went and spoke to my local panel guy to get his thoughts on that idea. He recons that welding, gluing and filler foam is a bad idea. These will cause the trunk is be ridged. He said the skin needs to move due to hot/cold etc. He sold me...

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    HA, Ha, I knew someone would say something like that. The car is currently fitted with a stock 318, so symphony no, maybe old Elvis tune. Not so bad but you can't listen to over and over again. GPRS have the kick panels.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    MT, I didn't think you were a D-bag, maybe I sounded like one. That's some great info you gave me. I still have a lot to learn about this stuff, so maybe I got lucky when installing this but I'm happy with the sound. Bass is defiantly there and responds when adjusting gain. Maybe volume is down...

    Good point, I do kick the speaker grill when getting out of the car sometimes. I'll keep you posted.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Subs are meant to mounted like this. They only boost the low end side of things. I can tell you first hand that the sound is awesome. I listen to rock & metal so I don't need the low end that the doof boys crave. The sound hits you in the back like a **** and I'm stoked with it.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Thanks for the good words. It means a lot when people notice the little things. I was just saying to a mate of mine today that "that all the small things that you put most of the effort into most people will never notice". Paint, engine & wheels get noticed straight away, spend 3 hours getting...

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Here is the retrosound head unit and front speaker install. Don't mind the poor looking dash, I will ordering new decals to fix that up. Dear God is it loud, I listen in rock & metal so the doof boys will have little competition. At first I was going to mount the splits in the kick panels...

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Good question... I don't know, I have never had a car with amps so I need some advice on how to set them up. I'll Google on the set up but any advice is welcome.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    Here is the cover for the amps, I may remake this as its not perfect. I added some child seat anchor points as well. I just need to have it trimmed and it's all done for the rear. Next is the head unit install.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    The parcel shelf took a while to build. Because of the way the shelf sits under the rear window seal I built it out of 9mm MDF. I originally wanted to have a more factory looking shelf and mount the speakers underneath. But the limited MDF thickness coupled with the overall height of the...

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    That's the place. It took a long time to get them eight weeks or so The guy builds them as needed and when I ordered mine he was in hospital. The fit is not perfect but pretty good. I'll show what I mean soon.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    The seat belts are just off the shelf items from my local parts supplier. It you do this you need to get 180/180 belts to mount under the shelf.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    I don't have any pic's of the sub enclosure construction, just got to busy doing the job. I built it out of 5/8" MDF. The thing is heavy, if I had to guess with the speaker and amps I would say 40 to 50 pounds. The total volume is just above 1.75 cubic feet. The idea was to have it fit as...

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    They fit a 6 1/2" speaker, The speaker fits well but the right hand side speaker magnet just touches the 'A' pillar.

    Retrosound, Amps & Sub Install

    First thing to do was to get the old parcel shelf out and figure out how to install the rear speakers. I considered installing the speakers in the front of the sub box but I thought this would look a bit crap. Installing the speakers in the parcel shelf presents a challenge because of the...

    The lack of tunes in my car was driving nuts so I decided that I wouldinstall a stereo in my Dart.... It got a little out of hand. I went with a Retrosound model two head unit a 4 channel & a mono blockamp with a 12" sub. My car is a 74 Sport space saver. Instead of going foran off the shelf...
