Question

Does anyone have any pics of ICE installs in MY01's? I'm after some boot pics if poss with subs so I can get some idea's. I want to upgrade from standard but I'm not sure which direction to take. I'm after subs but not that fill the boot like I had in my old BMW with a bl**dy great box with 2x12" subs!!

Cheers

Tim

Head unit -

Pioneer DEH - P9100R

MP3

Mstation

Front doors

Infinity Reference 655CS

Rear

Infinity 6x9's

Amp for interior

Sub -

Kenwood enclosed 10", Kenwood box with Kenwood amp mounted inside it!!!

Neat little sub as it has been wired to unplug and remove.

Nice install Fizz

I like the sub with the amp inside the box. Is there another way of securing it without the use of bungee cords? I would also like the idea of taking it out when needed. Also is that a multi-play on the load hatch or the amp?

Cheers

Bungie cords used as a temp solution... I'm thinking of a different way so I'll keep you posted. The Mstation is on the load hatch as under the front seats are the amp and multi changer!

Cheers anyway

Question

Any suggestion on speakers?

I've pretty much chosen my head unit - Kenwood 7021 but I'm not sure on the speakers. I'm going to run off the head unit for power to begin with so I'll have 50w per channel to play with.

I'm I right in thinking 6" fronts and 61/2" rears?

Sorry to butt in Tim, but Fizz, have you thought of some kind of velcro? Its pretty strong, probably strong enough to stop your sub coming free (unless your really driving hard round those bends!) and its very cheap!

Fizz,where did you get the blanking thingy that you slotted under the head unit.
In the past I glued the carpet onto the cardboard thing it rests on and then used velcro to secure the sub to the carpet.It worked!

I'll just butt in with my usual caution about velcro: it ain't good enough. If you have to brake suddenly, it will come loose.

I would not like to bet my life, or more accurately the health of anyone sitting in the back seats, on those catches holding the seat closed if given a mullering...

secure your subs

"that blanking thingy" is the stereo compartment from a GX model as they have single din units I "obtained" mine from a dealer but cost about £12 I think
