Cornholio135 wife's LY audio install

Yesterady I finally did the audio install on my wife's LY. The components are not "Top of the Line" but the overall install and sound quality are amazing. I tapped the Bose rear channels for the LOC. Ran to eq and amps. the only factory parts left are the head unit and the center channel speaker.

6.5" Pyle components for front with ebay adaptor plates
6x9 Pyle for the rear
2- 12" Bazooka trangle subs in a box
Sony 1000w amp for subs
Sony 460w amp for fronts and rears
Earthquake Passive EQ with sub out mounted in center console
Custom Panel for mounting amps to back seat
Pyle 4 gauge power wire kit


here are the pics

Thanks I vinyl wrapped the outside rails of the center console, the control panels on the steering wheel, and the door panel switch covers. Are you going to the state meet? My wife thought hers would be the only LY would be nice to have another there......

God!!!! can't April 30th get here any sooner... if we have as many people show up as voted for the location the turnout should be the best so far. The SARX's are planning on testing the route before then...

I was impressed, I'm getting one.

Oh, and BTW, Grungepup and I are holding your jack for ransom, please meet us at the greyhound station downtown. Alone, and bring $1,000,000.00 in unmarked bills. If we see any cops the jack gets it's grease fitting pulled.

Looks awesome!! Just curious, but how long did this take you? I've always been interested in "upgrading" my bose setup to have a little more low end bass, but don't want to do something that'll take a week or more to install.

all together 8-9 hours... and that was with some breaks... But I used to do Stereo and Alarms back in the eary 90's so I have experience but it is not that difficult...
