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.


All the old wires


First layer of bondo


Cut out




All wires organized

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.

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?

Worked on a 2005 G55 AMG, did a full paint correction and fixed a audio install as well.

The bad install


They installed a 5.25 in place of a 6.5 opening, not even using a spacer ring.


Soldered the wires


New speakers installed


The same for the other side




Clayed fallowed by swirl and haze remover, fine machine polish, and wax

Have you done any installs in the touring models that have BOSE? I see youv'e done several in base models but mine has BOSE and just wondering if it'll sound better/worse or the same using the stock speakers. Thanks
