I have all the parts needed, and I have already mounted the tweeters and mid range elements in the doors. I'm really looking forward to get this up and running. |
The switch is the easiest thing although there's supposedly a wire behind the drivers side rear corner bolster / rear door card that only gets power when the car is unlocked so could technically be used for a relay, you'd have to do some digging to check exactly which wire though.
re: wiring, cutting into the splices near the front door sills was a bit of a pain but I can confirm it does work. Also don't forget about coding, I had to get mine done professionally as the kit I'd have had to buy to do it properly was significantly more than the cost of coding plus there was the risk of me screwing it up. The subs really are the main drivers for this setup, mids and tweeters are a bit like backfill for the subs.
