Thought I'd post pics of my voltmeter install. It came out pretty good I thought. Now I can monitor exactly how my stereo is doing instead of that stupid gauge.

TahoeGoBoom · Dec 21, 2008

damn, thats a clean install. I've got mine right next to the amp so i know how much power its getting when im tuning it and running tests n junk. other than that i just use the needle. but now that i've seen this i may have to do this myself.. do u have pics of the install itself?

tahoebrotha · Dec 21, 2008

no I don't unfortunately, but I just drilled a hole and used a jigsaw as carefully as I could to try to get the hole the perfect size. I went a little wide in some spots, hence the electrical tape trim. lol. I wish I had a dremel tool or something, it probably would have been a lot easier.

Is your dash gauge similar (in readings) to your new digital gauge or is it pretty off??

TahoeGoBoom · Dec 21, 2008

from what i've notived so far with my gauge in the back the needle is typically right on.

i've got a dremel.

so i think this is gonna be my post-christmas present for the hoe. lol.

tahoebrotha · Dec 21, 2008

yeah it's pretty much right on but if the needled gauge ever fails, I'm good, plus the digital is much cooler looking. lol

where did you get that meter at i wont mine just like that but i night do two one for each battery

tahoebrotha · Dec 22, 2008

I got it on ebay, there's a bunch to choose from on there with different colors too

treepete · Dec 22, 2008

where did you attach the wires? to the existing signal to the stock meter, or somewhere else?

tahoebrotha · Dec 22, 2008

this one is just a two wire so I ran one to my stereo remote wire in the fuse box and one to a ground under the dash. easy as pie

some more pics of my rear door components install. They're MB Quart 6.5" Components and they sound awesome. I got components all the way around now and I get great sound definition from any seat in the truck. The grill is off of the the woofer in the pic of course.

TahoeGoBoom · Jan 6, 2009

the components look good. how difficult was the rear door panel removal?

tahoebrotha · Jan 6, 2009

easy, much easier than the fronts, you defnitely don't have much clearance to mount your speaker before you hit the window motor so you need shallow speakers.

here are some pics of my custom crossover covers. I made little windows to see them through the door and lit them with blue led's

tahoebrotha · Feb 14, 2009

I also traded my ported box for this sealed box because I wanted cleaner, tighter bass. Sorry for the messy cargo area

tahoebrotha · Feb 14, 2009

here's a pic of the crossover at night

TahoeGoBoom · Feb 15, 2009

that crossover would drive me nuts at night. lol. it looks good tho. i just have mine mounted inside the door panel. but the infinity ones dont light up anyway.

DaKing602 · Feb 15, 2009

Nice Job on those crossovers! They look sick in the doors. Did you put some L.E.D.'s in there or did the crossover come with them?
