installed a system.

i installed it in my step-brothers 1998 sunfire that he got a few days ago this morning. he paid 400 for the car and all it needs is paint and a new front bumper. i did a quick install cuz he didnt care about hiding wires so i did the quick install and hit them under the door sill and just left it open in the back.








Headunit-50 bucks
Subs/Box-free
Amp-25 bucks
Rear 6x9's-30 bucks at wakmart (dub series) lol
All wires-30 bucks
Chrome hubcaps that look like poop-20 bucks at walmart
Having a system thats worth more than your little ricer p.o.s-priceless

Meh there Visonics, you can get them at a flee market for $20. Something must be wrong with the rearview mirror, cause visonics in a prefab box won't do that

not to burst your bubble.. but California.. is the worst cheapest amp company in existence. the amp wont last. try to hide the wires a bit, or stapel them down a bit. its good to learn how to do it tho rite?

No no i completely agree believe me. When **** is free or cheap you cant beat it. Just trying to point out that instead of new visonics you can get something way better for the money.

You had the viewsonics hooked up in your garage then destroyed them by hooking them up to a WALLOUTLET and your an expert?

Their not the best of the best but subs are still subs and viewsonics hit hard, just not to clean/crisp.

I cant say I could build a better system for less than 90...tuck those wires sounds like all in all it was a good deal.(400 for the sunfire...where can I find one of those)

Never had visonics hooked up in my garage.... I found them in my garage and hooked them up to the wall to blow them up because they were pieces of garbage. And how does purposely destroying something take away from someone's reputation?. I'm no expert i just know some stuff about car audio. But its like when somebody talks about their car and says its fast when you know it isn't and you get ticked off. I'm not trying to be a dick, just being blunt. Visonics don't hit all that great. MAW 12s are like $100 a pop and will out perform a quite a bit of stuff thats more expensive. BTW it's Visonic not viewsonic.

BTW - When did i ever refer to myself as an expert?

Reminds me of when I had the 10's in my poop brown Cavy. I got everything, speakers, box, subs, amp, and headunit, from clearance tables at Circuit City and Best Buy for well under $200. heh

What ever kind of boxes best buy sells, it was a returned box that someone screwed the speakers in all cockeyed, whatever speakers and subs(all pioneer i think) they had taken out of the displays, pioneer head unit, wires that a friend had, and a few hours to slap it together.

I was surprised the car didn't rattle itself to pieces, although skipping cd's was fun. lol
