Doing the install this or next weekend... recommend what else I should get.
I will be doing my install either this or next weekend and I was wondering if you guys could maybe me recommend to me what I should buy before doing my install. I know that I will need the following but don't know where to buy it:
- Body panel cilps (local stealership quoted me $3.60 EACH and I remember seeing a site that sells the clips but I had no idea which ones to get).
- Carpet for the amp rack that I'll build.
- Rubber grommets for amp rack and for hole in the hatch through which I will route my wires to the back... I am assuming I can get those at local Home Depot.
Is there anything else you could recommend? I just ordered a roll of Rammat BXT...
Oh and by the way, what could I use to kill the rattle of the HomeLink mirror mount for V1/Passport... that thing is rattling like crazy and I know I can just slip some thick paper in there to make it tighter but it won't look as good..

I got the enclosure from another forum member who had it custom made to the sub's specs and as far as the hole goes... I read in some other thread that when you route the wire from glove box to the trunk that there are bunch of openings in the chasis of the car but people recommended putting rubber grommets so the wire doesn't rub against bare metal.
