Installation Description

I began by replacing my deck, i bought it through Best Buy because they were having a sale and they would install it for free(no labor cost). At that time i also bought my alpine speakers for my front door. I installed those my self. I removed the door panel and drilled out the rivets. Then i installed a speaker harness because my factory speakers were larger than the ones i bought. Next i saved up money and waited for a sale and bought my amp kit, and subwoofer box(i also used reward zone points). Then i looked up the subwoofer and amp i wanted on ebay and ordered them. (You save ALOT of money this way, but make sure it has a warranty) While i was waiting for my products to arrive i installed the amp kit but removed the fuse so that the power cable was not live. I also went out and bought a piece of ply-board to bolt to the bed of my car, using the baby seat anchors holes. When my products arrived i screwed down the amp with screws other than your standard philups or flat head screws,did the same to the sub woofer to the ply-board using L brackets, and the same with the subwoofer to the subwoofer box.
