It's the end of long hot day without a lot to show for it. I goth the illuminated door sills in and they look great. The GTR red starter button is in, it's cool. The head unit and adjacent trims are on the work bench. The ipod interface cable isn't working, Crutchfield says it ought to work, they have a call into the factory-I may get a call on Tuesday. I have, with your help, finally decided on the cabling layout for the speakers. The crossover will be mounted in the door (does the interior of the door see much water when it rains, do I need to put the crossover in a baggie?) I'll be using the factory woofer cable to feed the crossover with a short cable within the door to the woofer and longer cable from the crossover along the door's main wiring harness into the kick panel and then to the tweeter. Running the new tweeter wires through rubber conduit linking the door to the kick panel would be my first choice but it looks tricky, can it be easily done or is the preferred choice to run the tweeter wires along the outside of the rubber conduit I like to take my time on this stuff, I like a clean installation. I was able to install the passenger side tweeter and woofer and Dynamat the door too. The car is immobile and the garage is a mess and I won't be able to do much more on it before Monday.
