Bill, the reverse wire would be located in the rear of the car on the left side, there are usually 3 orange wires located in the harness, check for 12 volt with a volt meter on them while in reverse. That is the one you need. As far as the speed sensor sorry I am not much help as I have never connected them.

Today I built and dry fitted the amp rack together. Going to have to build a new false floor as the amp rack comes to the height of the floor already.

bigaudiofanat · 05-16-2012, 07:58 AM

Updated pics of the amp rack, aligned the amps and the holes. Going to be bolting them in with stainless steel bolts.

bigaudiofanat · 05-16-2012, 07:28 PM

Test fitted the amp rack in the trunk. Perfect fit!

Now to start the false floor tomorrow and sub box.

I like the addition of the cooling fans. Looking good.

So today I got a lot done, most of the car is back together. Did get to test the woofers and sub however ran into a few problems including the sub box will not fit because of a seat belt in the way. So I will have to change the location to the left of the trunk and make a new beauty panel.

Working on the sub box.

The final part was installed toda, the tweeters. I must say they were difficult considering they were my first set of tweeter pods. In the future I know what to do different.

Both installed

Hey do you know why my hazard lights are illuminated on my car when I turn it on? They wont shut off until I hit a blinker or click the hazard light button. The lights are not flashing but are illuminated. -- 2012 Nissan 370z sport package 6spd

battery in your keyless entry remote sounds like it is failing, despite it being a new car. I would bring it up with the dealer - esp since it's so new.

bigaudiofanat · 06-07-2012, 03:15 PM

I agree with Equinox

Hey Matt I've been experiencing an issue since I installed my Rockford T2 components speakers. Whenever I accelerate there is a whine or high pitch sound coming from the right tweeter.

I heard it's some kind of alternator whine because my power cables might be close to the coaxial. I have my speakers directly to the HU and don't use any amps. It only happens when the car is running.

But I Do have a power cable running behind my HU, do you think this is the problem? is there any other solution other than re-routing this cable?

It sounds like your ground wire on your head unit may need to be moved. Did you run new speaker wire when you installed them?
