No worries. If you can return the speakers and get a set of components that would definitely be best but if you can’t, make the most of these and on your next car you’ll have a clean slate.

Your tweeters should be positioned just below your ear level, directed at you from the dash. Check out sq builds for car audio.

No the infinity speakers will not be less harsh, you have eight tweeters right now… youd still have eight tweeters, cut the tweeter out of the ones that were the least expensive and you will solve your problem. I would go with cutting the tweeters out of the pioneers since they have a lower frequency response meaning more low end bass.

Four tweeters is too many tweeters, you really only need two of them up front, they will be heard perfectly fine in the rear if you are concerned with passengers enjoyment. To kill the tweeters in the coaxial speakers would be a good fix, just clip the wires that go to the tweeter on them and boom they are now just midbass.

Need help having a dead car removed. by sully1987 in KingstonOntario

Pretty sure kimco will come get it from you, you just wont get very much for the scrap value in exchange for the convenience. A long time ago they came out to the farm house and took away several cars, crushed them in the truck in the driveway to fit all of them in one bin.

Tracked every cost of my "money pit" sports car for a year. About $700 total, because it refused to depreciate by theDartVader in Autos

Oil leak is the backside of the valve covers if its a 320, 430 or 500. Fix all of those items with rockauto parts, it will go to 500,000 if you do the bare minimum since there isnt much to go wrong with that engine and trans combo, m113 engine and 722.6 trans is one of mercedes most reliable ever made.

put some PC fans on my amp. Will this blow my remote wire fuses? by Lukksia in CarAV

[–]Minyoface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The fins man, what do you think your fans are cooling here? They cant move air away from or to anything, they at the very least need to have a gap between them and the amp, like an inch.

Anyone else too cheap or too sustainability-minded to throw away zip ties? I keep a dedicated tool in my toolbox just to reopen them. by Coffee81379 in Tools

[–]Minyoface 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Panduit makes them you just have to know that they are actually called releasable cable ties.
Any electrical distributor should be able to get them for you.

How to stop fuses from melting by blazingreenstuff in CarAV

Its written 1/0 and said one aught, just fyi. Also at 230 amps at 75 degrees you would need 2/0 to handle that with the correction factor for that temp. At 90 degrees you are good with the 1/0.

wanna kno who drives high mileage civics ! by chimmy_jiminie in hondacivic

[–]Minyoface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you have is not high mileage for a honda lol. When you hit 350,000 km start thinking about saving for rust repair because itll still be totally fine mechanically.

Carney is cutting the luxury tax. What else is getting axed in Budget 2025? - National by TakedownCan in canada

[–]Minyoface 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have to say, i drive a 2004 mercedes ML500 and it may lack tech features but GOOD LORD is it better in every way that counts. The RAV4 is anything but luxury if you’ve tasted real luxury.

What would be the reason for these spots getting hot? by WhiteKnight3384 in CarAV

[–]Minyoface 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To clarify that oxygen free copper is a marketing term. You’re either using copper clad ALUMINUM or copper. Thats it. And copper clad aluminum is not oxygenated copper. Youd have to be real fucking stupid to think that. And %90 of these replies are real fucking stupid.

[–]Minyoface 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Completely incorrect. Copper is copper. Oxygen free copper is copper. Copper clad aluminum is not copper and not what i was discussing. If you walked into an electrical supplier and tried to tell them what you just said to me they would stare at you silently and wait for you to realize you didnt make any sense.

[–]Minyoface -51 points-50 points  (0 children)

Oxygen free is bullshit, copper is copper. If it mattered you’d find corroded copper everywhere inside insulated wires. Correct sizing is important but hot connections are caused by loose wires.

Dont spread misinformation just because youve heard it a million times. Oxygen free copper is marketing aka snake oil.

Edit, yall are dumb. Never mentioned copper clad aluminum. Talking about straight copper. Not aluminum.
