can somebody please help me?

i need ideas to mount my 6 x 9s on the parcel shelf .

maybe mdf for space and carpet it or something....please help!!!

I got autobarn to do mine. Cost me $130. Made from MDF and carpeted. They mounted the 6"*9" at an angle inwards so they did not have to cut any structural parts. I think it loofs Phat. And I didn'y have to settle for 6.5".

I love my Kenwood speakers!!

$130 bucks was a bit rich but they had to remove the old one and make and install the new and mount and wire the speakers. I am a pretty busy guy so thats the price you pay!!!

here are some pics attached. Hope it helps

Cheers,

J-Flash :rolleyes:

go to advanced and manage attacthments, browse choose ur photo OK, that should upload them, it will tell you if you have done it or not, make sure they are not to big, 100kb is the size limit..

back to the point, I have the same made for my car so I dont have to have ugly spacers, just didnt ever get around to put in carpet or anything over it, i just spray painted it black .. will do it one of these days :headspin:

I managed to install a set of 6x9's in my R32 without cutting the shelf. All I did was make a set of spacers from mdf and modified them a bit to accomodate the irregularities of the parcel shelf. I did have to adapt the 6x9's a bit but nothing major. Took about 2 hours all up and hay presto. 6x9's in the door and int he parcel shelf without cutting a thing.

just letting anyone who wants to know.... i have 7X10's... Kenwood, in the stock parcel shelf.... with no cutting of metal, they fit and dont let anyone tell you any different... there is at least a 1/4 of a mm of room on around the magnets and until i moved the battery about 1mm of clearence over the batter bolts!!!

Hey, how's it going, I have Alpine Type S 6x9's mounted in the back off my car, and all that had to be done was shave a SMALL portion of the metal away ... it depends what 6x9's you buy, some have small magnets, others, like the Type R's have a huge magnet and needs more cutting ... I'll put up photo's soon - well, as soon as I get my damn camera back :

Have to agree with pooski.

I have 6x9's in R33 rear shelf without cutting or MDF. Just needs to be angled right to follow the "D" cutout of the body.

Hey wat type of 6x9's do u have in yours? I'm after pioneers, just not sure if it fits without out cutting any metals (as i heard that it is illegal to do so).

Cheers

      just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.

      My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.

      To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
