Ahh... we can not be friends...

Jokes :P

hahaha!

Got a review on the double din? I've been thinking for awhile to get one too . Btw how was the wiring?....got any DIY instructions? hhaha

Review...its EFFEN AWESOMES!! Haven't played around with it enough besides tuning it! will keep you updated@
As to wiring my brother did it all (hes the brains) Obviously its just like any other headunit although i think it did have an extra power cable, an unused reverse camera wire (optional featrure) and the supposed wired your ment to connect to the handbrake for the dvd player you just earth out so you can watch dvd all time!

I think I might just go pick up the AMP today, for under $150 it really is great value huh. Do you happen to know whether the size of the amp would fit under either the driver or passenger seats?

It is great value TBH. I picked it up from my work with the wiring kit for $174 i think it was which was a catalogue special!

Unfortunately it is too long and wide to fit under either seat, that was my originall plan but it gives you about 15cms of leg room for passengers so is not ideal. As pictured we mounted mine to the rear seat, the mounting tabs JUST FIT on the rails on the back of the seat which is perfect!

DAAAANG, I really wanted something to fit under the seats as I always have bikes in the back and would hate to either brake the amp or scuff up my bikes paintwork as a result of rub-a-dub-dubn. Since my spare tyre is out, I've considered maybe somehow mounting it in there outta the way.

I'm all fresh and new to audio setups, does the AMP come with all the wiring, if not, what kinda cables/wires/connectors etc do I need?

You put a bike in your DC5 ??

If your spare tyre is out you could make some sort of design where a metal plating screws into the original tyre holder/well thingy then which you mount your amp to that plate or something amongst those lines?

Amp's (as far as i know) don't come with wiring so you will have to buy your own wiring kit!
You need a power cable which runs from the amp to your car battery
Remote wire which runs from the back of the head deck to your amp
RCA's which also run from Back of head deck to amp
Speaker wire going from speakers to the amps 'channels' (providing your running your speakers off the amp) and......think thats about it?

You can do like I did and buy a Wiring kit which comes with everything you need including the fuse which goes along with the power cable just before the battery!

Edit : Keep in mind you can buy smaller 4 channel amps you just have to get meausurements for under your seat (allocating room for wires also) then search for an amp with that specs!

[Flippit]

Mhmhmhm........what's the damage?

Bonnet, bumper, rad support, middle section of front apron, condensor and radiator. Still driveable, drove it home going on monday to get it all fixed up. Should take about 2 weeks to get it looking good again.

Not a bad hit but bad enough to ruin the weekend and make getting to work hard!
Chassis is still perfectly fine (dad and bro vehicle inspectors) thank goodness.

Question! Seeing as my car is Pre-Facelift if I were to buy facelift Rear bar & Rear lights would it bolt straight on? Is there modifications needed to be done, wiring or any other sort of stuff?
