  1. By open slot, what do you mean? Did you just wrap the stands of wire around the fuse and stuff it in? Autozone\Discount auto sells a fuse plug with a wire running out of it. Alot cleaner than just stuffing a wire in there. it's called a fuse plug tap. Thanks dude! Thanks man, I need to go get one of these since I just wrapped the wire on one of the prongs on the fuse and plugged it in.
  2. Any amp that fits your power range and budget, considering you didnt give a budget then it will be hard to help you. Go to different sites like these and search for an amp that fits your needs: www.woofersetc.com www.sonicelectronix.com www.onlinecarstereo.com

    batt question

    To each its own but that is a waste of money when you can just get one battery for the back that will have plenty of power for less money then you would spend on the 3 yellowtops plus you will be using less room.

    6.5 and 6x9s

    They are cheaper than that but it depends on where you live at, the speakers are actually 7".

    The Icon box will be fine for the SSD's

    Wiring Question

    Yeah that should be fine, what amp are you using for this kit? Anything under 1200 watts will suffice.

    Wiring Question

    10 -14 guage for subwoofers and if you want to do 8 gauge then it will be overkill and require some modifications to the wire.
  11. Run a wire from your ignition wire on the headunits wiring harness to your fuse panel and find an open slot or the ignition or Acc. Fuse, this is how mine is hooked up since I have a short in the Ignition wiring in my harness.
  12. Wires Needed: Constant 12V Power Supply (memory) Ignition Power Supply (turn on) LIght/Dimming Wiring if neccessary Ground wire to frame Remote Turn on to amp

    hole in subwoofer

    Did you pre-drill at first to make the screw go in with ease instead of having to force the screw in from the start? Ouch sounds painful, never had that happen to me. Also OP, take a picture so we can see if the hole is bad or not (whether simple or extreme measures need to be taken).

    hole in subwoofer

    It wasnt the screws, that is always why you should use a guide when drilling a screw in whether it is your finger or the one attached to the drill(if available).

    I like the enclosure but why two different reds on the box (maybe it was just the way the picture came out).

    18" SMD photoshopped

    What extra piece? That's how it really is. lol No shit Sherlock, you read into it wrong. Its not an extra piece on the subwoofer (just a different motoring design), just a change in design from standard woofers
  21. You can either start halfway and work your way up the SSF till you feel your sub is safe or start at 60Hz and work your way down till you find where your comfortable with the subs excursion limits.

    Should I rebuild?

    And why cant Sundown SA-12"s handle the lows like the BTL or better?

    SAX-1200D Pre-Order OPEN

    Cant wait for more testing on this amp. Im wondering how it will do at a 0.5 ohm? I know it would probably void the warranty but this thing looks like a small tank If your worried about how it will do at 0.5 ohm then get the SAZ-1500D and just run it at 1 ohm.
  24. Midrange speakers have nothing to do with which subwoofer would be louder and clearer. If your looking for a loud all around groundpounder then get the BTL and if you want a great sounding woofer that has the ability to get loud then go XCON. Even though it is install dependent the BTL should get louder than the Xcon and the Xcon should produce bass more accurate then the BTL.
