hey all,
Tomorrow i will be installing my new sound system, providing it doesn't rain. Im after any helpful information in regards to things such as, removing dash parts, laying new cables, what needs to come off ect. Ive read the following thread and downloaded the pdf's but they seem very generalised.

Has anyone else done this to their own, and have more detailed photos or info i could use?
Ok so a couple of general questions to start off with:
1. Will I need to upgrade the standard speaker wires? If so, is it easy enough to just run them along where the original wires lay? Or is there a less complicated way of doing this? (i have already bought enough wire to do this, not sure if its a necessity)
2. Removal of the top dash pieces where the tweeters are situated. Do these come out on their own, or will i have to take of certain parts before hand? I cant see any screws ect holding it in, so im not even sure how to take it out regardless?.....
3. Has anyone mounted a 4 channel amp under the front passenger seat? I thought it would get kicked to crap by the rear passengers, but my mates are certain that it will be fine, and not even stick out either side.
4. Best place to mount the crossovers for the front splits. I have heard they can fit behind the kick panel of either side, but looks to be alot of mucking around. Is this the only way?
Would a more detailed "how-to" be very useful to anyone on here? Seeing as im doing a fair bit of work, and theres not much else out there, i was thinking of taking hundres of pics along the way. If i think of anything else i will add later.
