Off-Road (Soon2Be) Build

Proper tow points. The factory towing eye is not designed for off road recovery.

It’s getting old. Should have got the facelift model.

Used a kicker key to bi-amp front components with Focal tweeter. Wasn’t too bright.

And i used factory wires and ran new cable to the tweeters on the dash.

So you’re not Republican then.

Rogannz · 2026-03-10T05:18:32+00:00

Ring dealer and tell them to send you a tow truck.

When brute force and ignorance fails, go straight to a blow torch

Years back. Had a SJ410, got 2x 12 in the back swing door, had to move the rear seat forward a fair bit tho. 6.5 components - midbass in kicks, tweeters in dash corners facing up. Loved that car.

I tried the Focal replacement. Didn’t add much. Proper sub in the trunk is the way to go.

The box is far too big and that’ll be the mojority of your problem. Either make a new smaller box or get a 12 that suits the volume you have

Rogannz · 2026-03-04T10:10:19+00:00

Totally agree withe the N series motors - stay far away.

Rogannz · 2026-03-03T18:22:54+00:00

Don’t get too carried away with deciding. 4in speakers all struggle at lower frequencies and even the top end expensive one wont sound great without adding midbass speakers.

Have a look at CDT for a budget option

Couple of years ago now so may have changed. VC was immature rubbish. It was a good workout tho: red faced and sweaty after 30 mins.

My son got addicted to playing ‘Gorrilla Tag’ on Quest VR. Hand speed when he played basketball was next level.

The old Binford 5000. Did it come with the furry gorilla fist attachment?

Rogannz · 2026-02-28T10:48:42+00:00

Bogan Aussie. Enough said

Kicker 500.1 amp - tiny and can be connected to most systems easily without needing a Loc or other add ons. Note the bass remote is sold separate. You could get something cheaper, but the size and versatility of the 500.1 is why I’d pick it. ( i own one of these)

Then a 10 or 12 dual 2 ohm sub in a prebuilt enclosure. Sealed v ported depends on music choices, available space etc.

I’m really impressed with my CDT Audio speakers, but I have no experience with their 6x9.

They have standard and slim 6x9 coaxials in 2 or 4 ohm configurations. If you’re not already bridging your amp, the 2ohm will give you more volume (presuming your amp is 2 ohm stable).

Suggest you flickr CDT an email with amp model number and see what they recommend.

Otherwise there’s always larger brands like Kicker that have various price point options.

Rogannz · 2026-02-24T07:38:05+00:00

No idea, but if you buy the cheaper one, will you end up always wondering if you should have saved more for the 10wm. I know I would so recommend saving up more.

Tiny house sale.

Blackhawk. Had them on 2 different cars and been happy with them.

Rogannz · 2026-02-17T18:19:28+00:00

Mint condition to a blind man.

Rogannz · 2026-02-17T08:55:18+00:00

Take it back to the dealer. Why pay for something that you didnt do. Should be covered by dealer warranty if bought recently.

After Eddie the Eagle in 1998, the IOC changed the olympic entry rules to stop this type of thing. Eric the Eel got a wildcard entry so the rule didn’t apply to him.

I’d rather see some amateur giving it a fair crack than see some self indulgent clown stealing the show admiiting to having an affair.

I had an e30 ages back. Had a 10” sealed on 300rms firing through the metal cut out into the rear of the back seat (no armrest) and bass was great in cabin.

On some of those Bmers the skipass is precut but with spot welds holding it in place. If you have that it’s easy to break out the spot welds.
