ryan.. Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 6.5's yes but you will need to make your own baffle (goes without saying really tho) Headunit isnt difficult but just awkward to get the cables in. Gromit placed nicely by the battery for running power cable. When it comes through into the car you wont see it, just keep pushing it through till is appears in the footwell from the dash. Running it throught the rest of the car is easyGimme a shout if you get stuck mate, i've had my vti-s apart more times than i can remember lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wongy Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Excellent, i did struggle with the headunit the other day, went to put my alpine in (9855r, so its got all the crap at the back of it, dc/dc converter etc) and just couldnt fit it in! going to have to modify something!How bigs the grommet, i will probably run 4awg, as i think that's all this one will need . Whats the mounting depth like in the front doors for speakers, mine are fairly monsterous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan.. Posted July 13, 2011 Share Posted July 13, 2011 ive got 0awg running through it and im running CDT HD62's in the front doorsYou can cut the middle bit of plastic at the back of the headunit area to give your self more space Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wongy Posted July 13, 2011 Author Share Posted July 13, 2011 Excellent, i've got a run of 0awg here, but its only going to run a PG M50, and a PG zx200, so 4awg will be fine.I'll take a look at your build thread for some idea's, thanks mate!Just serviced it now, Millers xss 10w 40, Hamp oil filter, genuine fuel filter, Tegiwa magnetic sump plug and NGK Iridium DC2 plugs My noise maker, Japspeed induction kitAnd i gave the 'goose a good clean up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wongy Posted July 14, 2011 Author Share Posted July 14, 2011 Well, i've kind of got the Alpine head unit in, took a hacksaw blade to it and got most of it in, just won't push in far enough, there's something in the right hand side stopping it now, and i can't be bothered investigating now.Ran 2 sets of RCA leads and an amp relay lead too, just ready for when something goes in.Hid the Ipod controller behind the glovebox too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryan.. Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 its the aerial cableyou can re-route it very easily but removing the plastic clip which holds it and run it to the back of the headunit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
