    Ok, so I am going to be painting my Yukon

    I love satin just make sure proper flatting agent is used so you can still buff the finish. White would be cheaper if you stay with the same base coat color. Around here a proper color change costs some $$$$. A buddy of mine just had a Tahoe painted satin blue, entire truck was stripped to the chassis minus the drive train(fire wall and all was painted). it set him back about 15 grand.

    Screws won't budge

    Yes, for the noobs do NOT use that on plastic. I would have ASSumed the radio chassis would be mounted to metal.

    Screws won't budge

    I use an impact driver similar to this made by Klein. A good whack with a brass mallet produces about 300 ft/lb of torque to loosen the screws. You have to use tempered bit tips though because it'll snap a regular but. Most imports use a loc tight material.

    I lied. I'm sorry. I'm only tuned to 6.6Hz. ROTATING ceiling f

    This may be an ignorant question but why not brace the ceiling joist in the attic.

    Loads of welding cable

    I use a 1/2 inch steel rod and a hammer to indent the fire wall or floor. I then double check the opposite side to make sure I won't hit any wires or brake booster, ect. The indention will help the drill bit from walking also. I use a stepped drill bit to drill my holes, then insert a gromet and caulk the hole after the wire is ran. If you use split loom to cover the wire do not run it all the way through the hole into the cab because water can run between the loom and cable and go into the cab.

    Ground directly to the frame in the front and rear. Also ground the alternators to the frame.

    difference between low tuned ported box and 4th order

    Why would it have to be bandpass? Unless you can fit all 4 straight across the bed with the port, then it won't be. Unless the front "chamber" is tuned, it's not a bandpass enclosure. Same idea as a manifold enclosure used extensively in HT. Albeit it's in a ported box and not IB

    Hi Everyone! Carloidol here From Philippines

    I inspect bulk cargo vessels, and the Philippines have more able seamen than any other country in the world. Chances would be if you were a master or chief officer I would have met you.

    Are you a seaman?
  12. I haven't had a system in my dd for a few years now. I drive nearly 1,000 miles a week so I am in need of something. I normally have a lot of junk I need for work so this install will save as much space as possible. Through out the build I will show step by step some of the techniques I learn over the years. Factoy interior, hopefully the end result will look like this as much as possible. spare tire location under false floor false floor removed farm6.static.flickr.com/5267/5666965605_2a85e9c267_m.jpg tire cover removed. tire will remain remember this is a daily driver. jack and such will go in side pockets by the tire well the sub the sub will go somewhere in this location initial masking tire reinstalled

    Nikon 3100

    Anyone use the Nikon 3100? Post you impressions.
  14. You can call directed electronics customer care number and they can confirm the same thing I have told you. It's found on their site.
  15. Whatever the problem, be it a faulty alarm output, loose wire, or instal error, the third ignition(white or pink with white wire) aka transmission wire is not being activated upon start-up via the remote start. Your check engine light will most likely come on when this happens.
  16. If your alarm is a newer model it will be the 3rd ignition wire and should be connected to the vehicle via a white wire or pink/white wire in the vehicle's ignition harness.
  17. There is an additional accessory wire that engages the relay for the transmission. A relay has to be used to engage the extra wire. Even when the remote is turned off by putting in the key and pushing the brake the transmission relay still won't engage. This is a common occurrence on newer gm's and is noted in directed's wiring guides.

    Outrageous Deal | Vote Inside

    I would think an unknown random approach would generate more traffic as long as everyone knew what day the deal would take place. A large countdown on the store and the forum with a clickable link to the details would work well also.
  19. Sounds like you have bad batteries or a weak charger. I have 4 Odyssey deep cycle batteries for my boat that are 7 years old that are drained on a weekly basis during the summer. I use an Intella Power 60 amp converter and they charge back up every time.

    Designing a Box

    Use 14 square inches of port per net cubic feet and make it 32 inches long. You will be tuned about 32-33 hertz.

    Senseless audio ramblings.........

    Everyone that uses a class D amp are sending clipped signals to their speakers. When an analog signal which is infinite in value,Changes by a digital processor to a digital signal which is finate(ie, on or off like computer code) it is by definition clipped.

    I have several things on the way. The first round of things are being manufactured right now and will be available towards the end of January.

    birch box

    No more ply= more more layers= more crossing of grain making it more rigid. The density and voids are determined on the grade.
