After about 6 weeks i finally got all my audio install sorta completed ... had it all tuned since the cruise and it goes heaps harder so i cant wait for the next cruise to see how many Db it's improved by

here's some pics

i'd also like to send out a big thanks to Craig at Xtreme Force here in town for all the time and effort he put into my car and the nights and weekends he gave up to do it

and my girlfriend Jo who put up with me through it all cause i think i was a bit of a knob while this was getting done and i went way over budget doing it ... Thanks Jo :)

dat console looks schmick as mate...berry nice indeed... :thumbsup:

Bout time you posted up some pics!...mine didnt turn out too well, lol

But yeah, very nice...r u still getting different subs? Anywhooos, I likesys it heaps...LCD screen addict. BTW, what are u watching?

Looks sweet :D


In regards to the custom console for the screen in the dash, costs and time involved?

Did the shop make a mould to do it and if so do they still have it.

Very interested..

Brett

cost a few bucks for the materials used so not sure on a selling price as it was made as a 1 off item but Craig at Xtreme Force said he would make another if anyone was interested ... time to make was 10 hours + i think


but could find out how much they would sell for

he'll i'd b keen to get one of those aswell !

maybe a group buy is in order ?



i want a screen put in, but not indash, so that is perfect

Very nice install, i love it. I's shore lots of people have asked you this. But whats with the two decks (looks cool) but why have you done that. is the alpine a DVD deck or something. also how is it all wired up so that both decks car be used

top deck is a dvd player ... just an alpine look-a-like and bottom deck is a cd player

that way i can still listen to tunes while the people in the back can watch a movie listening through headsets

Ok. So the two screens that you have i your car, just run of the dvd deck. So does that mean that the sound for the dvd only comes out of the headsets, or can you also run it throught the speakers as well

i can run it through the speakers as well from the Aux on the cd player

ok. sweet. I was thinking about going for a dvd deck with screen, but your approch looks good and would be a lot cheaper. :D

indash might be easier ... i had to cut the console to make the mould fit .... bye bye cupholders

but i'll see the dude who made the mould tonight and get a price off him for those who are interested

group guy for sure, i've already got the screen to go into it, come on ppl lets do it
cheers
Rhys

thats great.. u wouldnt want anything better than that.. :D

Good work mate, very neat and tidy.... :D

was talking to the guy that made it last night and the shroud for the screen needs to be moulded into the mould ... so if it's a group buy thing everyone will need to buy the same screen otherwise it'll have to be made for each screen if everyone wants a diff screen


either way i dont think he minds making them

How much costy?

i'm still keen i'll buy the screen so any idea how much we'd be looking at, coz i dnt care if its a group buy or not i'll do it asap. where u located?
cheers
Rhys

aahh bugger, just had a proper look, and we lose the dang cup holders....i dunno if i want to sacrifice my cup holder damit

Yeah they are damn good cupholders...

Heh, so buy an aftermarket clip-on Type-S cup holder :P While you drive, the holder will unclip and you'll have hot coffee all over your god damn leg almost causing a serious accident...I'll sue that company for all they're worth one day!

I definitely like what youve done Colgate.

Thats super cool!

wats happenin wif this, we gettin a group buy peoples?

i love the cup holders...great storage compartments.

I know I've talked to u about this before, but would there be any chance you could make some sort of sliding lid or a lid to cover the screen, so people don't see it when you park your car?

I was thinking a piece of polypropeleneneneene with a handle on it, cut some grooves on each side as guides, so you can slide it up and down when you want....imagine motorized:cool:

YYYEAHHH! I WAS LOOKING FOR A SIMILAR IDEA...

I was thinking of something in the kitchen...but yeah, windows in planes is exactly what i meant!
