86' Power Ram 50 Project: Desert Hunter

[Acuta73]

Well, for as good as the stereo is, I just had to gild the lily a bit. My high range hearing is just about gone thanks to years of gunning ducks, I really want a bit more bass response in my stereo to make up for it (mids are AWESOME, atm).

Well, I went to Stereo King locally to ask about one of the Pioneer shallow mount subs scguy put in his. They were out, but the guy pointed me at a Kicker 10" shallow mount and said it was a bit better but more spendy. He ended up cutting me a deal and charged me $10 more than the Pioneer (was gonna bail when he priced the Kicker). Well, $295 later I walked out with the sub, a Rockford Fosgate Amp, wiring, and some split loom.

Looks really good...better when I get it in, I think:


The dog, however, was not so impressed (she watches more TV than I do):


(No, I'm not white trash, just recently single. Ex took all the good furniture, I like toys better than furniture. Sue me.)

So, does everyone just hate my thread or....?


Got the wiring mostly done for the MSD, can't figure the signal wiring yet, though. Posted a thread about it with pics, not gonna rehash my stupidity.

Sub is about 80% in. Just need to hook up the pot adjustment and the speaker wire.

Amp fuse in, stuck on with "Tape of the Gawds" (google it):







Wall O' speakers, and not much room for anything else now....:




Ran outa light and answers, more tomorrow.
