Hey guys!

I'm the one that made the "How to" on tinsel lead repair which you guys sticked here: http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/forum/i...showtopic=19673

So, I figured I'd finally come in here and introduce myself.

Im 28 years old, Live in Houston Texas, and have always loved anything related to car audio.

Heres some of what I had done to a 1986 Pontiac Firebird I used to own. Everything custom built and installed by me.

"The Bird"

Amp Rack. Various amps, Distribution blocks, Also a capacitor due to headlight dimage and less wear on the alternator. (I have black lights in side the amp rack box that shine down on to the speakers at night.)

2, Digital Audio. 1000 watt 4 Ohm Dual voice coil Extended Low Frequency Drivers.

The Firebird was costing too much money to keep running at 20 years old so I recently got rid of it and got a new Toyota SR5 4X4 4Runner. I then transfered the same system from the Firebird to the 4Runner. The whole system fit amazingly well from a Firebird to a S.U.V. With very little modification.

Kenwood MP3 Player, Rockwood 7 band Passive EQ. (Rockwood sucks but its an EQ who cares)

Thanks all!!!

I wish someone from Michigan would pop up...

This is funny! I lived in Lansing Michigan for 13 years (basically grew up there) It is also where that Firebird came from. So needless to say it had a ton of rust underneath from the salt roads in the winter time. Which after 20 years ruined it.

Hope to see you all around.

that boy is LOW

Agreed!!! Ever since I bought my 4Runner I have learned to hate anything low to the ground. I enjoy sitting up high!
