    Hey Luke: I am not sure where else to post this so I wanted to Thank You for the alarm install and the 10" box, and speakers, and amp, and and and....

    The sound system sounds great and likely better than the one from my e46. I think the box and speakers are well balanced. I pariculalry

    Thanks again, and let me know when you want to know Mr. Royal Pain (8 Ball or 9 Ball, no matter). You got my number.
    Thanks,. buddy. Your install was a blast, honestly. The car is in such nice shape, no evidence of any water leaks (except that antenna!) and all the wiring in excellent condition...very nice.

    Lets see if you can find time to come with me to Bubbas in Kent. They have a great little tourney there on saturday nights. I generally finish in the money and have won it many times, but have also been out in 2.

    Basically, any time YOU have time, let me know. I always lack opponents!

    Luke

    Luke, for the cosmetic amp rack, what size amp will fit in/on it? I have a JL slash 500/5 that I took out of my e46 before I sold it and I am trying to figure out if it will fit or not.
    It is only 12" W X15" T, so, uuuuuum, NO.

    But, we could easily make a special rack for you that was flush with the back of the box, but then it would not be removable.

    Did you tell me before you had a 500/5? That is a big amp!

    yeah, the spec will work...and a little extra "boom" from an 8" is not always a bad thing...

    I had not heard that they had released an 8". It does look like an OK fit, but may end up a bit "boomy", as the Qts is higher than I would prefer to see, especially with that high an Fs.

    Hadn't planned on it. I should have the amp ready to go before I get the box, but that depends on free time, etc. I will let you know if I need some help with it though! (may be the case given what I can get done on the weekend before you build this thing)

    I am at this 7 days a week, usually.

    If you are 100% certain let me know.
    If you need a car for fitment, etc I work in Renton and live in Seattle, so just let me know. I will pick one up as soon as they get done! (91 318is BTW)
