neons.... ladies and gentlemen FLAME ON!(also sub plans...)
 
right now is about 8 am and my car is going to the shop to get my underbody neons interior neons and pilet (sp) switches installed. could take all day or 2 hours... we'll see! and for those who have seen my other thread my system plans completeeeeeeeely failed lol so debating to use what i have.... 1 10w6v2 and 500/1 amp or sell it to get 2 3w6v2 with my 500/1 amp... any opinions... its been a hassle to keep on purchasing subs.amps and all and im getting kinda fed up any one have an idea to how i can install 1 sub nicely? my intentions were to get the fiberglass enclosures but they turn out to be 300 a piece and well.. that would mean my whole system would be about 2g and i figured i could by alot more things with that..
any opinons on the subs?
FLAME ON ABOUT THE NEONS!

haha

2 grand for a sub?
4080's box, an amp, + sub should run you about 600$
(It varies on what kind of woofer and amp you get)
Mine is a cheap Sony 80$ and works great!
Amp is an Alpine mono subwoofer amp....
As for Neon, each his own....

Yeah 2.... Boxes and woofers....
Heavy duty!
1 already shakes the rearview and outside mirrors,
I can imagine 2!

You can always start with 1 box, and later do number 2,
It will split your expenses in half and you will be more then impressed with 1 box.

Borrow a friends camera... If you still have any after that neon install *ba-doom ching*

ScudRunner 02-20-2005 02:37 PM

Only $2000 for an install huh? You got off light, my friend. :D

LiL BenNy 02-20-2005 03:24 PM

scud what are you talking about? you realize thats the system not the neons?

ScudRunner 02-20-2005 03:27 PM

Yea I caught that. My stereo install is already near $11K, and I'm not done yet. That's why I said you got off light. Good luck with whatever decision you make tho.

AvatarQAZ 02-20-2005 03:53 PM

$11k!!! Sir, either you are getting bamboozled on prices, or you are not installing/fabbing the stuff yourself.

ScudRunner 02-20-2005 03:59 PM

I am certainly not fabbing/installing anything myself, that's for sure. That is not where my particular skills lie. I can fly a helicopter tho. :D

irish8 02-20-2005 04:53 PM

$11K Bloody hell!! It must be loud enough for me to hear it in Texas!! :D

- Irish :cool:

ScudRunner 02-20-2005 05:06 PM

Don't know yet, haven't got a chance to hear it. Still in the shop. Only four 8's tho, so probably not that loud. ;)

LiL BenNy 02-21-2005 12:49 AM

ScudRunner 02-21-2005 06:30 AM

You still got off light! :D

As for the original intent of this thread...Here's some pics of my system. As for the sub box, for a custom fab fiberglass box, you're looking $300-400.

^^^^Showoff :D

Might be a little late, but 12" Cold Cathode Tubes run cooler than conventional neon tubes and are $7/pair... (interior use only).
