How much cf and how large of pieces ?

Man I got access to large scraps of cf, kevlar, and a couple other hybrid mats at work. This sucker will be bullet proof by the time I'm done with it Tried the amplified antenna didn't get good results. Only thing it seemed to do was add a whining noise to the crappy reception

You know I thought of that the other day. I have never tried it. I know a couple people that have the mobile version. Might give that a whirl. And see how it works.

We're not talking the titanic here or anything. Just my little river yacht. Has all the amenities of a larger boat. But only a 4" draft A high end head unit would be severe overkill. It's going in there somewhere. But i'm leaning heavily towards easy removal. The pods I'm working on will be attached with heavy duty velcro. And they will have banana plugs for quick disconnect. The head unit will most likely end up in a very well protected little box with similar disconnects for power and such.

I had to bump this thread, for I too have an addiction. I came to this conclusion one day while fishing in this When I looked down at this area And thought something was missing there My name is Raymond. Am I'm addicted to mobile audio

Sweet, looking forward too it. I haven't heard the magnum since the addition of the vifa's either.

Woo hoo . Sounds fun I'll be back in town Friday night. hopefully I can get my passenger kick resined, so you and Dave can pick apart what I have so far.

You coming down Mr. SQ ?

yep, if they are tight to the floor cut a 2"-3" hole right below the mid driver in the kicks. Let em' fire directly into the carpet. Works wonders

It's going in a 14' john boat. Need something too listen to on those long nights of catfishing. My little river yacht I'm not really concerned with playing cd's or anything. Mainly just want radio reception. I even thought about using flat ribbon cable, and remote mounting just the face. Then I could tuck the rest of the head unit away some where. But with the underdash kit. I can devise some quick release connectors and pull it out rather quickly.

I have noticed that too. I have a nice clarion marine head unit that I used to use. I had a 10' whip ant. on the boat and the reception ( what little there was ) still sucked a$$ . So I plan to take a regular head unit. Use a metra underdash mounting kit, and a metra marine cover. The head unit will be completely sealed with the exception of the two holes in the rear of the mounting kit. I can cover those with a small piece of gortex. He!! I even have a couple small 12v fans laying around If I need it. Aight, your the fourth or fifth person that has said blaupunkt. Nobody around here carries them that I know of. I'll have to check around the net I guess. Thanks man

Also forgot to add that it doesn't have to be a marine head unit. Plans are for everything to be easily removed after each fishing trip. And If need be I can build in splash protection.

Aight, here we go just map quest this address. If you have ever been to custom autosound on Franklin road. It's just right up the street from them SPRING SHOWDOWN ~ NATIONAL BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION BENEFIT CAR, TRUCK & CYCLE SHOW BIG K-MART PARKING LOT ON FRANKLIN RD 3555 FRANKLIN RD ROANOKE, VA 24018

Sweet, I'll have to listen to the magnum. maybe give ya a sneak preview of my $12 budget drivers.

Come on down man, bang up on some neck wanna be's Just wish I had something operable that's not a convertable Oh well, should be fun just to watch anyway

I was told spl only too. I looked at the usaci site and it says both. Most likely spl only in this neck of the woods. Let me make sure it is at the kmart parking lot on franklin road. They took down the location for some odd reason. I can get you directions.

I'll keep my camera in the car just for you Not sure how good of a pic I can take one handed at 70 though

Decided to go get my car inspected during lunch today. The farging icehole failed it because of the kicks I had to back out of the garage, yank the drivers side out, throw it in the back seat, and pull back in before the icehole would pass it . got to love this place

Upon further review those look a little different.

That magnet struture looks like the older focal utopia.

Very nice, very nice my brother. Good to see an impala not setting an inch off the ground too

We got the idjits who go and by the most rusted out pos they can get for $50 at the auction ( necks love an auction boy ) Slap an orange triangle on the back, and paint farm use on the side of it. Then cruise where ever the he!! they want without tags, registration, or any insurance what so ever. And farm use vehicles don't require inspection. So no matter what condition it is in, as long as it's marked farm use they can drive it. I see a guy going down I-81 in a late 80's ford f-150 quite often on my way to work. The passengers side door is bolted shut with a 2x4 across it on the outside. The drivers door consists of some plastic, cardboard, duct tape, and a few stickers. The entire bed is ( or was ) made of wood. It's in such rough shape, it looks like a bunch of termites holding hands.

slingblade baby mmhhmm I like the way you talk mmmhmmm

Honestly, after seeing your beast of a garage it wouldn't surprise me. With all that room, you could loose a freakin school bus. Picturing nick whipping the oompa loompas hollering mmhhhmm....no more french fried taters till the woofers are done, mmhhhhmm..
