I would prefer some time after June if possible. I know it'll be hotter but it'll give us tons of time to plan it out and let some of these guys save up their pennies for the trip out there.
I'm hoping for a BIG turnout from the SoCal guys.

You got it, June it will be. I'll set it up on this end and let the lechers in Phoenix know. I'll have you a date before the end of the month and that will give your group 4 months to get ready.

We'll show up. But will the Vegas people make it? When they hear we're coming they'll run and hide.
Lechers,, HAH!


I'll be right back!

I doubt that, now don't you be an instigator. I believe that some if not all will show up for the tri-state meet. But I will not stand for any teasing from any of the three groups. We need to get along. I may be old, fat and slow but I can still demand and get order. I have 35 people that work for me that will tell you I get what I want.
When I stated lechers I was thinking of you

We are just a fun loving group of people. We won't do anything to create a problem.
Why did I have the feeling that was meant for me.

Question Zumn got woofer?

Just got my subwoofer put in. 1100watt 10" Clif Design Competition Subwoofer with 1100watt Boss amp, just some pictures of the install, i will post the clean-up, cleaner pictures later i still got to hide all the wires (u know zip ties)

Running the power cable through the firewall


Clamp on the connectors for the RCA converter, i didnt have to strip any any stock wires.
Installing the RCA converter

I ran the power cable through the black door molding all the way back to the driver side passenger seat, behind it and through the pass through, eventuall ill drill a hole and run in under the carpet to make it cleaner.

The 1100watt 10" Clif Design Competition Subwoofer,not bad for one 10 i just realized i forgot to put the chrome rim cover back on?!

The box with amp attached

Yup this is it for now, i just installed it, to make sure everythings good uhh...i had to take off the plastice molding for the hatch of the truck in ordrer to get this huge as box in, now i have to take everything back out and take off my tire rack and push the box towards the rear seats and use some black L brackets to keep the box in place, that'd be another day. For those of you wondering whether the vibration is gonna kill my amp? Uh i have warranty on all my crap, and on the subwoofer, the owner where i bought it told me "try and blow it",???, pretty easy install, took me about 30 minutes. I get no trunk rattle only my license plate sounds like its gonna fly off, but im gonna dynomat later when i take everything back out. ill just get the license plate dynomat for now. One thing i noticed after a hard day of beating down the block is that the colored plastic covers for my side mirrors are a little loose now, they sound like marracas....im gonna have to glue them back tight. I spent only $500 flat. $230 woofer, $120 amp, $20 RCA converter, $70 box, and the rest on cable, battery fuse, crimp connectors.

You may want to stick the power wire through the grommet or give it it's own hole + grommet it looks like it's kind of tightly stretched here.

well in that pic the grommet is pushed in so i would be able to run the cable, i have to pop it back out and it'd be fine or ill just give the cable its own hole and put a smaller rubber grommet for it to pass through.

the Grommet was probably the hardest part of the install, took me like 5 min, that thing is on there good, some stiff *** rubber.
