Stereo Install

here is the front speaker in the door

Custom fiberglass sub box made by me

Head unit installed

Pics of how i sound deadened the doors and the interior door panels. I also sound deadened the outer door skin, but hard to get a pic of that

pic of the speaker adapter i made for the front

I modified the stock tweeter location to hold the pioneer tweeters. I can ever still swivel them if needed

Pics under the driver seat. this is the 4 channel amp. same layout on the pass side with the mono amp

Thats all i have for now. Next up is tint and HID's

Looking good (and sounding good too I bet)! Do I spy a project of mini-ature proportions in the garage?

Awesome! How much did the sound deadening quiet road noise and such?

looks great! awesome job! how do you like having the screen instead of the original radio..... TONS better? i am debating whether to get one.

yes, thats a 1979 mini i am restoring

love the stereo upgrade, the new pioneers are great ( i have the 440 in my wifes outback

sound deadening seems to keep the doors from buzzing, but this car has NO sound deadening from the factory. If you really wanted to make a difference, pull the carpet and add some under there, as there is almost none
