I am just wondering if you could explain an easy way to get the wires through the molex.
Maybe I was doing something wrong but when I did it just getting the "plastic pieces" or the molex out was only half the battle.
If you figured out an easier way perhaps youd like to share it with the rest of the class.

 

Very Clean!

 

I have no tricks for this one. LOL i actually was hoping on running those wires thru to my doors a long ass time before i did but i couldnt get those plugs figured out (before i became an installer actually) so after 10 months of installing i just went at it one night. Dont remember when i started but i didnt finish till ~5 or 6am. Like you said removing the white molex plug is by far the hardest part

 

one quick question to the op

how much was the total price on all that

i can do a whole system f/r speakers with 100rms each and am with 2 10s with 300rms each and a headunit all for around 1000, then i gotta get a box and wire it which shouldnt cost more than 200 or so

 

How much? jeez. i wish i could tell you off the top of my head. its been like an 8 month process. like i said its my gf car but she bought damn near the whole system. i know the head unit was like 250 cuz i bought that, and the 4ch amp was about 150 or so then im not sure what else. i know it was around 200 for supplies. i told her shes lucky to have me to do it. i couldnt imagine wat a shop would chrge these days.

 

also how did u make the boxs for the subs?

possible how to?

 

i wish i could give a how to. i think i took a few cheap pics with a disposable. I framed out the boxes with mdf to get general shape. then i made a skeleton of the sub enclosure and fleeced it and glassed. Took a while since each of the trunk is different so i couldnt just transfer measurements from one side to the other.

 

how much would u want to make 2 boxes like this?

 

ill be honest, i wouldnt mind doing it. but i work mon-fr 8-5. it would take forever to get them done, not to mention the cost it would be to ship them. i mean even without the subs,wires, or amps installed the boxes were prolly damn near 50lbs each. if you were in FL this would be a diff story. sorry bro. have you ever built a box before?? or worked with fiberglass?

 

getting the wire in the door was cake for me. i just found an opening by the wiring harness in the rubber gromet in between the door and body. it was hard to shove through though.

 

how the hell did this get thread jacked and turn into a way to route the speaker wire thru the door??

 

lol thats what happens sometimes. blame nike... post 7

 

I just took some solder and stripped the wire back a little and found an old coat hanger. I used core resin that would soak into the wire and then some acid based solder behind that wire to build up like a bubbles so the wire wouldn't slip off the end of the coat hanger when i pulled the coat hanger back through. As soon as the wire was through, touch it with the iron again and snip the stripped wire to start fresh.

 

Thays one I never thought of.
Was it a bitch getting the sodder/wire to stick to th coat hanger?

You know I did something similar but did it in stages my wire with a coat hanger was to thick to fit so I just taped string to end of the wire and taped the other end of the string to the coat hanger, feed the string through cut it from the coat hanger and then pulled the string with the wire attached to it,

I found getting through the molex to be the most difficult part, drilling out holes for the wire was a little nerve racking.

Sorry for adding to the thread jack

 

lol i just have the molex hangin down... i didnt clip it back in (i wasnt about to drill a big ass hole thru it)

 

very nice

 

the sub setup looks good..u must fix those tweeters
