I dunno, but you're gonna get that stuff stolen.
I'm actually haxoring your address out of the internet right now.
I'll be stealing those within a week.
Looking like a skinhead, I don't doubt that you would.
Seriously, you look freaky dude.
Wow, stealing stuff thats not even top of the line :rolleyes:
I gotta work with what was given to me... you know?Quote:

I'll get out of your thread now. :)
Oh, I know that, 88.
I've shaved my head 3 times. Unfornately, I have 2 things that really fuck that up.
1) I'm so fucking pale, that my shaved head actually has a tint of blue to it and looks freaky.
2) My head is so fucked up from taking multiple hits to it from all manner of things, it's got a lump on the back and isn't shaped normally, hence I look freaky.
If you can do the look and pull it off, rock, but it still makes you look slightly more insane.

Well I can when I'm thinner (which is right now) when I'm a tad overweight I look pretty ridiculous.
Either way I hate shaving my head, but I like how it looks, so its a weird thing.
Oh yeah and I tan through and through, so in your face pale skinny white boys.

All I can say is you should go to circuit city, pretend you want them to install it, and they will tell you exactly what extra parts you might need for your type of car.
Then leave and do it yourself.
is this an amplified bass tube? or a non-powered one?
If its powered, you just run RCAs from the head unit, a single wire for remote (the blue wire with white stripe) and a decent gauge cable to the battery for power. Then you ground the tube to somthing solid and metal in the back.
BTW, ive got one of these :)

Was it crazy? I heard a cover of that last night, some bar band was playing a CD of pop-punk covers last night before they went on.Quote:

Wildkat, how's your alarm system?

im kidding, really....
I had this stuff in my old car for nearly 4 years (different pieces here and there) and never had a problem, it had an alarm, but nothing major.
Key is, to A) install it stealth and B) not drive through mall or movie theater parking lots with it blasting at full volume.
You do it out of necessity. Didn't you start to go bald at like 12 or something?Quote:

It's a powered Bazooka. I got it off my uncle who is getting something new. Only two wires come out of the pos and neg. I would hook it up to the rear speakers but unfortunatly some dumbass designed the Focus with the rear speakers in the back doors. So I have to run it from the trunk to the stereo.
Yeah... you were hearing "Me First and the Gimmie Gimmies".Quote:

Your system is worth about five times as much as my car.Quote:

What problems, if any, do have with the Focus? So far, he's been looking at the ZX3's. I'd like him to get the SVT, but I can only wish. :-/

Not that I started with a perfectly shaped head or anything. :lol:
My car has been back to the dealer a few times (I got mine at Mike Davidson Ford, I should have went to Mike Shade Ford down on your end of the city). If he does get a Focus, he is looking probably at the best one (ZX3). I believe with the ztech engine your first check up isn't until 100,000 miles which is f'n awesome.Quote:

When we got our Ranger earlier this year, they gave us the rebates about $3k worth at the time) and let us get a little lower. $13.5k after everything isn't too bad for a new vehicle with a 3.0l V6 and decent interior. The salesman was real nice also, despite having to stay 45 minutes or so after closing.
And I'm ranting...
Thats what ive got, the XM antenna, not the Metro, wouldnt be caught dead in one.Quote:

Wildcat, we have 3 XM's and a Sirius within our household. Delphi boombox, Pioneer in-car with glass-mount antenna on my mom's Camaro, Sony in the Metro (same kind of reciever as yours), and the Sirius in my dad's truck. You can see the antenna in the picture I posted if you look hard enough.
