Default my first stereo install!! few pics inside.

this was my first install ever. im exhausted, bloody and filthy. but im so happy and proud of myself. lol

nothing major, and car's dirty as hell, but here you go.

HU: alpine 9855
Amp: eD nine.1
Subs: eD 11ov2s dvc4






alpine9855 matches the interior lights pretty good. way too complicated for me tho. why can't they have a simple treble and bass buttons?? time correction function is nice tho. subs and the amp combo sounds pretty good. can't turn it up too loud because im still running stock non-bose speakers. can't hear much of the music when bass is too loud.

so... what do you think?

yeah awesome job for a first timer! eD products rock and I like where you mounted your gain control, I still haven't gotten around to mounting mine.
And after fiddling around with the alpine enough you'll get it.

It took me a long time to get the Alpine 9855 sounding like I wanted it...youre right it is way too complicated. I love the car screen feature, and the color matches pretty well. Good job.

thank you all for looking.

it was well worth the pain installing those. i am finally enjoying some decent bass. gotta do something about the rattle tho.

rattles from other area is fine, but how do i stop that horrible buzzing sound from the rearview mirror? anyone with subs fix this rattle?

thx.

The only rattles I have is from the third brake light plastic cover and the storage compartment behind the passenger seat. The latch got lost during install.
