The DEH2950mp is a pretty base level head unit, only has 1 RCA out so there'll be no control over the sub volume from the h/u. $220 for the h/u from what I can see on TM Amp is $230 (car stereo specialists) for 380rms - quite a good price I'd go 1 good sub over 2 average ones. The box for 2 subs is more $$ as well so you're better off just having one decent 12". Amp kit can be around $80. Install - guessing $200 So it looks like an OK price ... nothing fantastic but you're not getting ripped. If you haven't already, go to Car Stereo Specialists, 153 Wairau (ph444-1105) and have a chat to them. They do some great specials and give good advice. Good fella that Blackrazor (aka BR aka Dan) but is no longer in the car audio scene. There's another rule that relates specifically to Pioneer headunits. Never never never connect or disconnect RCA cables unless the head unit is switched off and the amplifier is earthed. There's a fuseable link in the headunit RCA earth track that blows. Everything will still work but you end up with hideous alternator whine and CD tracking noises.

I'll give you a call

Another way to do it is to use 12mm or small wooden dowel and bent it to shape and temporarily screw it in place. Then give it a coat of bog just to seal the gap and then fill with f/glass resin. Sounds complicated but actually quite easy. Here's my current install in my Alfa 156, but will soon be upgrading to 2 Image Dynamics IDmax12 as a bit of a show boot install. Dowel held in place Coat of bog to seal the gap (didn't seal that well and some f/glass leaked through so just needed a light sand after. Finished with the carpet on Got a very similar install in the wife's E30 to Mike's, even using a Soundstream Exact 10. Gives off a decent whack of bass and I don't have a centre armrest

Need both front asnd rear seats for a 4dr E30. Budget around $100 but will pay a bit more for good condition. Located on Nth Shore so round Ak is OK

New to this forum, but the wife has set me a near impossible task, she wants a red manual NZ new E46 to replace her ageing red manual NZ new E30 (which took me 2 years to find!!). There was one that just went on trademe which I missed out on, so the search goes on. Anyone know of any for sale, willing to come up with a small finder's fee if someone points me to one I buy. Doesn't matter what engine size but must be NZ new and manual. Will also look at black ones but prefer red. Live in Auckland but will travel 1/2 way down the nth island if needs be Thanks
