wiring is super easy. anyone there can do it.

Wiring the first time is really confusing. Once you do it once, you can really wire anything.

^^^ Yep, I used to run a car audio business in undergrad, we'll get that setup right quick.

The meet is Today, Yun and Anchalee are already here and we're working on my car. Also, if anyone happens to have JACK STANDS, PLEASE BRING THEM, I completely forgot that both my sets are under the parts car. Looks like we'll have a good turn out.

given that you have the wiring diagram

True. Although I found it easier to just run all new wires as the original speakers have grounds ( I think?).

It all depends on the application actually. If you want to run premium sound in non premium car, all you ahve to do is hook it up to the oem wiring. That way you dont need to split the signal yourself for highs and lows and the wiring is already split off the oem speakers to the tweeter. Premium rear also is split ready to the tweeter. You can just use the stock deck amp to power it.

If you run your own tweeter setup then yea, runnig you own is better. Or else the oem wires will more than suffice.

regardless you still need the wiring diagram to wire the deck power, ground, fader, etc. Those wires you dont rewire.

[trackbball21]

Yeah. I just ran new wires and found that easier because my deck power,ground, and other wires were no where to be found, haha.

Anyways, I wanna see those pictures! It was a fun meet today! Couldn't have asked for better weather.

[thereisnoyun]

way too many pictures... like 195 of them. Here is a teaser, the rest is coming.

[shiboujin]

I missed out :(

[brn2ply7]

Me too :( ..woman had other plans for me...

[EtaSport]

Well I see you guys had a much better turnout than we did, did you get any work done?

[TexasTerp]

yeah we rebuilt my entire front fascia, new grills, US Ellips with 6k 55w HID's, new metal valance, freshly cleaned and painted iS front spoiler with splitter. I'm just waiting on a front plastic bumper to complete it, which is why I didn't put the side trim back on.

I'm going to be posting the rest of the selected pics from the meet either late tonight or early tomorrow.

They are in there somewhere, along with other surprises. I was racing at the cumberland airport yesterday, or I might have been there.
