Here are some pics of the finished install. The main power wire by the pedals turned out well.
Don't know what to do with the control knob. Still trying to figure that one out. I want to put it by the e brake handle but I don't want to use two sided tape or screws there.
Here's the box and old amp.
Wild story time....
About 15 years ago I purchased a 94 Ford Tempo for 100 bucks from a customer. Decided to take it for a drive to a local pawn shop about 20 mins from my shop. At the pawn shop i bought this amp and a box with two 12 inch kicker xs speakers. Got ready to leave and noticed a single Baltimore County squad car parked at a weird angle across the lot. Not thinking much of it I proceeded to pull off.
Next thing I know 5 more squad cars speed up behind me as soon as I get on the main rd. Barely noticed because the two 12s and Boss amp that were in the car were louder than all their sirens. Being the ( almost ) law abiding citizen I am, i promptly pull over. The ask for license and registration... I give them license...and....don't have a registration. By now they're all over the car...and I'm out on the ground. They were even inside the air filter housing under the hood. I'm on the phone with Baltimore City dispatch and my Seargant. The county officers ask, " is this your car ? ". I say, " hell no....I just drove it down here to go to the pawn shop ". They ask, " whose is it ? "...I reply, " Daryl something..." they tell me the tags aren't coming up...and the car isn't in their system and ask again if its mine. I tell them " hell no !!! " again and ask them why i would drive a car that isn't legit with three tagged vehicles that are in their system and in my name.
Now, I'm standing out on the curb talking to them whole I'm talking on both my cell phones ( they don't ask who I'm talking to ). Officer says, " tell me the truth and I won't lock you up " ....i laugh out loud...by mistake. He steps to me and tells me to hang up my phone....I say...do you want to speak to BC dispatch....or Seargent Brown ??? Lol. They thought they had me...lol. Called a friend and they picked me up...along with this amp and the old speakers...the car went to the impound lot.
I bought the car and hadn't changed the tags over yet...or removed the tags. Customer said it was legit and ok to drive. Never told me the situation with the tags. I should've ran them myself. Those county guys sure were pissed when they found out I was law enforcement too. Smh. Memories...this amp was in my 89 convertible and Pappa Smurf and never skipped a beat.
Anyway, got these in the mail. Don't know how much I'll like them but they are at the painters now. Even came with instructions to mount a wing.... ( wrong instructions )
