Wiring sound systems!

[83 WB_Ute]

Coool. I didn't do any work in my shed this weekend, but reading your thread made me feel like I did something productive

Hahaha Its all good man, I've done your share for you The past 5 days I have spent 12hrs a day in the shed, working on the ute and sorting all my spare parts!

Terrible Blocker!

Can't wait to see how you set it all up [MENTION=763]83 WB_Ute[/MENTION] I'm thinking of trying to stuff in two 8", two 6x9" and two 4" speakers and have the head unit/something similar hidden as well! Love to see some inspiring photos.

Cheers man, I'll chuck some pictures of the finished system up on here sometime But there are some pictures in my shed thread of the kick panels that I made up to suit the 6'' speakers and the head unit in the glovebox, the tweeters are in the dash vents now..
The 4'' speakers in the b-pillar were a bit harder to do, you have to cut a bit of metal out to fit them in there, but once in there they provide quite crisp/sharp sound just behind the passengers side

And I'm looking at trying to fit 2 x 10'' slimline subs down low behind the seats and an amp under the passenger side seat, all so its relativley hidden, but gives a nice kick

At the moment with the 6'' and 4'' it is quite loud in the cabin! The head unit goes to 50 on the volume, its that loud I've only gone to 38, and to be able to sit inside (without your ears bleeding..) it has to be 20 or lower hahahaha

Yeah, its quite good having an old car to cruise in That last photo could have been taken 30yrs ago!

Yeah, I'm still after a ute/panelvan one The one I have isn't right :/

I'm quite interested in it Are you sure you don't want anything for it?

It is a wagon one. but i'll pull it off and get some better pics for you to be sure. the wagon is going to be squashed when i got the last bits off it so no worries, just postage. if you can use it.

Good job mate, didn't think it would be anything major.

Okay, grab some more pictures, and if you can get a chance, just trial fit (hold near where its meant to go ) it to the rear quarter of your panelvan.. That way we'll be 100% sure if its what I need

Cheers Its funny that something as simple as that can cause sooooo many problems :/

Glad the guys here were able to help get things sorted for you Matt. I reckon you're miles ahead of your mates if you ever find yourself stuck somehwere and need to get it fixed. Not just understanding how your ute is put together but actually being intimately familiar with it makes tracking down any issues if they arise a lot easier.

Good work Matt.
