Time for a fun wiring project to give myself a break from the not-so-fun wiring!
Putting a new stereo into the piggy. I was originally thinking about doing the traditional thing and putting the speakers in the doors. After really thinking it over, though, I figure there are two problems with that:
1.) The doors are not waterproof and it could/would be a challenge to ensure the speakers weren't exposed to water.
2.) The doors are going to rattle like crazy unless I go bananas with the Dynamat, which then gets back to the water issue from #1.
So...all y'all who have the tunes in your pigs, I would love to hear your input on what has and hasn't worked for you (or what you would do different the next time). I have the gear now which consists of a headunit going in my Tuffy arm rest, 6" rounds for somewhere up front, and 6"x9"s for somewhere in the rear (was thinking cargo-area panels). I am not looking for a competition audio rig, but it would be nice to get decent sound that doesn't sound like it is playing inside of a coffee can.
Fwiw, I did search and read up on all the audio installs i could find both 40 and 55 related. The 40's are such a different animal, though, that I figured it best to focus this discussion specifically to my pig-brethren.
Thanks all!
