lol, i know what you mean, but i wanted to do it right, because its a mini-itx motherboard, its low power, so doesnt overheat too much, and i put a fan n the side to suck air out of the glovebox. dont have any pics though.

Lovin' the wagon. Could do with some rims and maybe some painted bumpers. The interior looks great!

Wouldn't the PC's hard drive get knocked around when driving over bumps?

 

[hakhawk]

nope, its holding up well for 7 months now. havent reinstalled once.

I love the look of the 'hard wires?" running from your amp.... can you buy them commercially or did you get them custom-made?

 

[yZoH]

Troy(hakhawk) custom made the hard wires from amp to sub's, I saw & touched them and felt the vibrations of his wagon on sunday Ohhh the vibratiosn lol

Cheers

lol @ vnpheonixs. yeh, its custom made, i went down to local scrap metal bloke, got about 2.5 meters of i think its 4mm steel rod, cost me a whole $1. worked out how long each bit needed to be, cut it with a hacksaw, bent it in a vice, then whipped out the old steel wool and gave it a bit of a polish coz it was covered in surface rust. never be afraid of a bit of surface rust. i think next time, i will hit it with the steel wool before i bend it.

i tried a local stereo shop first, thinking they would've done something similar before, but they just looked at me in wonder.

That simple eh, does the sound quality drop at all? What about electric shocks from the wires when u touch them,?

 

[hakhawk]

nope and nope. havent shorted them, havent been zapped, might be losing a bit thru them, but no more then normal wire, if anything the connectors have biggest loss.

 

[matty88]

But I guess they will lose sound quality if they are very long (just as cheap speaker wire)
