so im starting work on phase 2... started with the sound system first since im riping up stuff drilling holes.. ect... I was wondering whats the best way to remove the back seat, I read the service manual on it little confused.. does it just unbolts and i can pull it out the back 2 doors?? any advice with the sound system? I was told i may need a bigger alt, but i think im fine.

What I have:
1 12" Diamond Sound sub
1 phoenix gold OCTANE R 15.0:1 (Sub 2 Not Functional yet)
1 phoenix gold OCTANE R 5.0:4 (Main Speakers, Not Hooked up)
1 phoenix gold OCTANE R 8.0:1 (Sub 1 Fuctional)
A butt load of wires,fuses and audio cables
Capcitor
Sony 6x5 and 6x9 speakers
I bought this setup above me to test out the sound make sure thats what i really wanted. (all stuff is brand new)

What i plan to get(next 30 days):
2 phoenix gold OCTANE R 15.0:1
2 12" Diamond Sound sub
2 Mb Quart 6.5 speakers with seprate tweeters
2 Mb Quart 6x9 speakers
Plan to build a custom box, one for the subs and one for the amps
Kenwood or Alpine Indash 6.5" LCD mp3/cdr/cdrw/dvd
Replace the plastic trim the burlwood and the shift knob with the mdx burlwood knob
Optima Yellow Battery

I was also told that i need to run another power cord besides the one i have now running though the driver side. Maybe though the passanger side. I have 4 gadge wires right now. If i really get any bigger i may not be able to tuck the wires underneath anymore, hard enough with the 4 gadge

regarding about power cable requirement, 4 gauge will be fine, seeing as your using around 1400watts RMS MAX. but if you want you can run a 2gauge wire(just one) that will work to.

i was running around 1500watts rms at one point with 4gauge and it was fine. and still am running it with 4 AWG just diff setup.


besides that, your setup looks good.

I would try to clean up the wires a bit. It looks a bit messy. Nice equipment though.

I don't know if your noise condensor would make a difference in your aftermarket system. Check all your grounds including the HU. I've never had that problem with my system and it's the same one I had on my G1, so it's about 6 yrs old. Maybe this type of thing happens with cheaper amps (some don't have a built in noise reduction or anti "thump" system), not saying that yours is. So if all the grounds are good and your manual for the amps states something to the effect of noise reduction; only thing else I could think of would be the noise condensor. It should not be very expensive (not sure though) and shouldn't be too hard to replace.
