    94-04 Running Wires from 4 Channel Amp to Aftermarket Door Speakers

    The way I install 4 channel amps is that I run the speaker wires from the 4 channel amp up to the radio harness in the dash and connect them to the factory speaker wires there. On your 04 there is no amp for the tweeters so when you install your new door speakers you need to hook them up to the...

    Way to Unlock Factory Nav System?

    You may be able to put a switch inline on the vss wire so you can "turn it off" when adding addresses and such, but if it has any type of internal gyro like the pioneer nav units it will not work.

    Where did you mount your Amps

    Mounting them on the box is fine, sometimes it's about the only option. This is what I did in my brothers 99 vert...

    Is there any way to boost the signal to the subs?

    The problem that he has is that most non-excellon Kenwood decks have really low output voltage on the RCAs, and the Alpine decks that have sub control are better. There are really two options that he has. The first is to get a line driver. They are usually about $75.00 for a good one, and this...

    Intrax Springs

    I went with Intrax springs on my 94 Supra TT because they were the only ones at the time that gave more than a 1" drop, and they were pretty soft for how low they were. It looked badass, but I could see on a Mustang it could create a problem if the springrate was similar to what I had.

    HID kits? Where to get them?

    I got mine from Ebay just last week. $96.00 with free shipping (got them in 2 days!) for the single beam, and I went with 4300K as they produce the most amount of light and thats what the factory HIDs are. A couple of my buddies have the 6000 and they are just too blue for my taste and mine...

    79-86 install issue

    There is no trim plate made specifically for your car. What you need to do is buy a 1/2" trim ring and use a bench grinder or similar tool to trim it to fit. This is the best option that I have found.

    Will this amplifier work?

    On the back of your factory radio the should be two plugs, one large one and one small one. You need to install the line output converter to the sub output wires which are in the small plug. I can't remember the wire colors off the top of my head, but that is how I've always done it. You can...

    Pioneer Z2 or D3? anyone?

    I'm not too familiar with the Z2, but the D3 is a pretty basic screen for Pioneer. I've installed a few of them and I personally would recommend the Kenwood 7100. At my shop we sell about 10 Kenwood navs to every 1 Pioneer nav and I know with the Kenwood you can run the nav up front and use the...

    I can't get the screen in my car to work while I'm driving

    Dual screens require that you set the brake for a couple seconds, release it for a couple seconds, then set it again. Like another guy said, you need to ground the wire then put a toggle switch in-line to interrupt the ground path to the deck.

    What's a good lowering spring for 99 cobra

    Here is my brothers 99 Cobra vert with the Eibach Pro-Kit springs with 17" 03 Cobra wheels. They lowered the car about 1.25" and it rides just lightly stiffer than stock, but handles much better.

    Factory Stereo, No Bass

    If you have the Mach system there are 3 factory amps. One drives the tweeters, and the other two drive the 4 woofers. If the tweeters are the only speakers playing I would check fuses. I think the fuses for the amps are in the fuse box under the hood, not the one under the dash. If you cant find...

    Problem with 2000 stereo wiring

    If you don't do the amp bypass you can simply hook up the remote turn on lead (blue /white) from the new head unit to the blue/white on the rectangular harness that plugs into the car. This will turn the factory amp on so you should have sound. The only negative to doing this will be that the...

    wiring harness help

    In the 11 years that i've been an installer I've found that most aftermarket decks will create a turn on pop. Some will not. The reason that it does it is because the factory Ford amps use less than 12 volts to turn on, and with aftermarket decks that begin to play output signal before the turn...

    Firewall Hole?

    I've seen a few people do that and I wouldn't recommend it. I drilled two holes just below the main wire harness that runs through the firewall. One of them is for my 2 awg power cable, and a smaller one for my alarm wires. Here is a pic from the inside...
