EDIT: Screw it, I just bought a set. Was $400-500 on amazon just last fall before getting discontinued:

This make sense? (This would be using the base speaker level with no external DSP or EQ, and not recoding to HIFI)

So next question - dynamat. I used some on my last car to help on the doors, and was looking into it on this car too.

Ive always thought you need to sound deaden the door panels (either interior or exterior panels). but in all of the build threads people are sound deadening the trim panel... Im not quite sure how deadening the panel itself would help? i thougth the benefit was adding weight to the door itself to stop vibrations.

but then at the same time, my speakers were mounted to the door, not the panel...
so will adding dynamat to the panel itself help block road noise as well as create a cleaner sound for the speaker?

The door has a full insulated panel behind the door card.

Really just leaves the door card itself to vibrate.

Bavsound's install video (at 10:20) shows some recommended spots for dampening.

Dynamat does have several competitors now, so you can cost shop that.

Ah okay perfect. Wasnt sure if that was an insulated piece or just a vapor block (although i guess it does somewhat do both.

And i found a dynamat extreme 12 sq ft kit on ebay for 50 bucks so i think im just gonna grab that. I was looking around and im not sure i trust the alternatives. Half smell like tar, half fall off in the heat

Do u know where I can buy this plug 61136901731 all the places I've checked say it's discontinued

If not can I just buy the plugs 61138364835 add wire and plug them inn. Then use heat shrink or so ???

This is for the loop for the Underseat speakers


Thank u

[Larrye90]

This one looks like it has a black cable connected to it to do you think that could be a remote cable

Could if it was relayed, but no, the remote cable has to be a SWITCHED source that turns on with the radio.

The LOC I sent you makes it's own remote signal. You could use a wire like that 16ish gauge one to supply the power to the LOC.

You picked up the MBQs, right? If so, you don't need that side because the MBQs have speaker terminals.

If not, it was replaced by 61132360044 which looks like it includes the pins, but is a lot more expensive.

Yes I remember the one u send me but I was curious if that's what that other plug was. Do u know why there is a two plug option 1 pin and 2 pin.

Can I put a bigger G wire for the amp ?

One is a single, one is a double. You could use either, just make sure you get the matching pin(s).
