Almost done with the build in my 2008 Mazda Miata with a powered hard top. The build make the car a true one seat SQ car. I guess you could call it a theme build in that I was going with the bigger is not always better. I was trying to get the highest possible quaility out of the smallest footprint of product possible.

The gear used:

Head Unit: Eclipse 55090 soon to be changed to the Denford 8250

Processor: Audison BitOne

Tweeter: Hybrid Audio L-1Pro

Mids: Hybrid Audio L-3

Mid/Base: Hybrid Audio L-6

Sub: JL Audio 13tw5

Amps: JL Audio HD-600/4 Running Tweeters and Mids

JL Audio HD-600/4 Running Mid/Base and channels 7/8 bridged running sub

Wires Stinger and Hooker

2008 Mazda MX-5 PHRT aka Miata Hardtop

Top in the middle of comming down

Interrior and Trunk before any work was done

Dynamat goes down once interrior has been removed

Wires are all tech flexed with a different color tech flex depending on application and then are anchored down every 6 inches or less.

The doors are readied for the L-6 mid base speakers

i've always been a big fan of miatas. i have friends who are part of the local miata club and the mods were jsut awesome. they were more for performance like turbo kits, Nos kits, Cusco suspensions, etc. not so much on the sound system a they try to conserve as much space as they could.

good luck with the build. i had a friend who went with kicks and the soundstage and imaging was top notch.

More pictures of the build

The L6's are installed

If you look hard at the screws used you will notice they are snake-eyes security screws

Speaker wire runs down the transmission hump

Wire harness is soldered together

The ground installed in the trunk is wired to the ground fuse link.

The amp rack goes in and the wires are run.

A pillars are getting some love, the heiroglyphics are low spots that need more epoxy to even things out

The pillars ready to be wrapped.

The A pillars are wrapped in a really nice black vinyl

Wow, i like your instal...

First of all, I love Miata MX5, I hope it will be my next car...

We don`t have Eclipse HU`s in my country, too bad, I`d realy love to have one. Where is your Eclipse, `cuz I can`t see it in your pics.

I want to buy an Audison BitOne and use it with my stock mazda HU, what do you think about that?
