[breezer]

1 oclock and still no phone call! Im back at college at 3, and i dont fancy gettin the bus for the 3rd time within a day,lol!!!

[Yaris-SR-1986]

how did it go mate?

did you have 2 get the bus

[breezer]

Hadta get bus back to college, and as i was walkin in the dude rang up and told me the bad news, the amp was faulty, LOL ANOTHER ONE! He sed the low pass filter had gone and it was jus faulty coz it kept switchin off and on. Since it had no low pass filter, it cudnt provide the sub with the power to get the bass!!

Although, i am getting a refund on the amplifier, and the dude left it all wired up, so i jus need to get a new amp and then im off

Although my dads not too happy, sed the sub lux ridiculous and is massive!!! Its a 10" with a custom box, made as small as possible!! So it doesnt take half the boot up but still looks nice.

Uc, he bought the car, but its sorta mine even tho hes the "main driver". Im in it 99% of the time and i have paid for everything thats in it, so duno why he has the problem since hes never in it!!!!! Hes been in a bad mood all day :!Removed!: Il get sum pix neway tmoro!!! When i passed test and i was gona buy a crappy banger, my rents sed no no no, we'l get u a new car in a few year time! Few months later when i started modding, i sed il buy this car off you in like 3 year time wen u want a new car dad, so saves u buying one for me, and he agreed!!

not 2 bad, all you have 2 do now is get a replacment amp then plug the wires in then your off. :)

im doing the same thing as you mate cause im only 18 so i went on my dad insance which means he the policy holder and im the second driver. but im in the car 99%.

i know wot you mean about the sub thing most dads are like that.

[breezer]

:ffs: Yeh! But mam sed hes been in a bad mood all day! Thing is tho, iv took all his crap out of the boot which he never uses, and all thats in there is the small sub, looks nice!

So then he went on more, and i said, whys there a subwoofer in this room (for tv obviously) whys there a massive one downsstairs behind the setee, its jus the same. Then he said to my mam, uknow all those cars that come bombing down the road with lots of bass, "thats what he wants to be like". And i said, no not really, if i wanted too id get 2 subs, and much more powerful ones! Gettin on my !Removed!! :ffs:

[Yaris-SR-1986]

lol, Exactly (parents just don't under stand) is that you want to listen to good quality music while u drive.

[breezer]

Yup! Old gits!!!!!!!!! Well mine are sorta, compared to my friends parents!

[Yaris-SR-1986]

yeah they see a car as 2 get 2 from A point a 2 B, but we see it as are pride and joy so we spend the time and money on it.

[breezer]

My amps are both mounted inside the sub box, which seems to work OK. I've had amps on the underside of the parcel shelf an on the outside of the box before.

Back of the seats might be OK, although make sure the screws aren't too long otherwise it might be a bit uncomfortable for your rear passengers! If I remember rightly, the seat backing is metal so u could drill very small holes in it, then attach with small screws.

[breezer]

I was thinking of attaching the amp on underside of the shelf! but by the looks of it, the dudes havent gave me enuff wire to move it from its current position Also! Nice pix john

[breezer]

Didnt mean like that! Meant like attach a sort of box with an opening, and put it in the right way

[jaxx]

hmm fair enough, but then the amp will be closed in

better on the boot floor with plenty of airflow

[breezer]

Yeah, looks like thats where its stayin since theres no give on the wires!!!!!!!!

[vmail]

are you talking about the earth wire, that needs to be short as possible

[breezer]

All the wires, iv tried pulling them but dont wana pull too hard incase i pull it out of cd player or summit,lol!!!
