Struggling with work aye... I can't stay awake at work... It's killing me. But it is nice to be driving my own car again... Though it need s a GOOD clean inside and out... So will be doing that soonish.
Plus I'm annoyed that none of my eBay stuff has turned up :/

Good luck with that sound system dude! I hope it works out well for you :)
Come pay day I'll be buying a LOT of wire and re-doing all of mine again so that it's all hooked up properly, so I will share your pain

A few things all around Christmas sorta time. Still got nothing... Though most of it is coming from overseas.

Yeah I'm just waiting for the wire to turn up and my cousin to start on the boxes, got two 1500W koni's coming in from the states too. So sub setup is complete. Kust need a 4ch and door speakers now.

I really should wire in my head unit, sub and amp. Can't be f*cked though lol and the fact that I'm retarded when it comes to wiring, got no clue.

I'm no electrician but I'll give you a hand, and if it makes you feel any better I'll use my car as a dummy run lol
found a 4ch line converter the other day, so I'm set to do my 1st audio install as soon as my cousin can fab the boot install for me. Once I have it all in I'll have a spare sub, mono, and a dual sub box... So they should help find stage 2 of the install... :) then should be all sweet to cruise on down to the Goldy with some fully sick sub woofers 8-)

Oh and the other thing I'm waiting for is the Fordmods sticks from dc, so they should be here soon.

Nice man. The only difference between what you're doing and for me, is I'll actually run a head unit. I don't like the mess of line converters, and I do like being able to charge my iPod while driving, and if my phone dies I can just switch to AUX and plug the phone in to charge :)

It's not much mess aye, it's one more unit and not much different to a distribution block... It's pretty neat.

I have iPod integration. So I can already play music through that and aux... :) got it covered :p

You will soon, with your head unit lol
Mine will just keep 100% stock appearance until you open the boot...

Nope they don't :(

It's stupid, have to use AUX which sucks balls because you lose a lot of audio quality in the cable compared to usb.

yeah its a factory option. would be better if they just had a USB port though, cause now i cant connect my iphone 5 through the old style apple cable. it sucks...
i've been looking into the possibility of replacing the old style cable with a usb extension, so you can plug in any apple product. but no luck so fair, cables are FAR too difficult to make apparently.
