I **** seeing clean builds audio wise that end up with Kicker junk in them. I'm debating between an SA10 or 2 SA8's for my car as I got rid of the big spl set up out of my car to fit all of the air stuff in the car and cover the costs of my air build.
    Thanks! The SA8's seem great for size, the box they required is very small. Kicker is good audio stuffs man everytime I go in futureshop i swear someone tries to tell me that kicker is top of the line stuff

    yessir


    Summer seems to finally be here so I should be able to start tackling a lot more.

    finally got around to doing the dash swap to fit my double din (that and the original blower motor was screwed)
    le ugly original 96-98 dash

    And the blower motor, heater, ducts, and ac condensator that was required for the swap
    PRO TIP: when replacing a blower motor, get one form a vehicle equiped with A/C. most A/C equiped vehicles use larger blower motors to compensate for the extra effort required from having A/C.


    It was a pain in the arse to swap however, required gutting the car to the firewall.


    Found the previous owners shitty radio wiring

    and made a proper wire harness adapter... no crimps, no electrical tape.

    and seperated the looms into speaker wires one side, power, ground and illumination on the other.



    half way finished the swap


    And almost finished. Also installed my wink 5 panel mirror


    and turned it on, yep it does internetz. immediately went on Stance/Works



    till next time, unless I get distracted in traffic by the internetz and die a horrible fiery death....

            On a scale of 1-25 how difficult was this swap

            1 being like disconnecting a battery to 25 like swapping an engine (or the actual dash swap)

              Those new HVAC controls and double DIN made that interior look 1000x better. Definitely subbed for this one.

                All in all it wasn't too bad. I would say maybe a 7? Lol for the most part it is just very time consuming. I followed this guide if your interested in what all is required to do it yourself. It goes through step by step and is pretty handy.

                        Pioneer SPH-DA110, although I believe they may have a newer model out. most of its feature run off of android or apple phones so if you dont have either of those it might not be totally worth it.


                        Welp, I didnt get as much done as I had hoped but at least some progress has been made. Started to build my mount for the air ride components in the trunk.

                        built a mount for the accuair computer

                        got everything roughly layed out

                        started making some hardlines, the final bend didn't come out right so it will have to be redone


                        and coated it in bedliner to try and waterproof it



                        and in the trunk

                        also threw in my ashtray lower dash piece, and mounted the controller where the 12volt plug ussually goes, the opening around it is almost a direct fit

                        Its getting close, but theres still a ton left to do till it can air out


                        also got started on some body work/ paint.
                        and some filler

                        and I got sidetracked at princess auto, ended up picking these up to convert my license plate lights to led

                        suprisingly they fit quite well


                        and with them in. Also painted the trunk and spoiler. its chalkboard paint! if I dont end up liking it then I'll go ahead and wrap it gloss black


                        hopefully more progress soon

                          Pictures of airing out. Very do.

                          How are those sleeve bags? Run into any issues? I'm bagging my DC and it seems like no one really bags 90's Hondas...

                            Not sure yet, hopefully I'll have them in soon and can let you know. The only draw back on them is they don't go extremely low because they are a single below ( really the only size you can fit in the car though ) but I plan on making custom lca'a to get it a lil lower as well as modifying the factory top mounting locations on the car

                                I love this!
                                Always wanted to work on a 95 Civic CX hatch
                                This is as close as I'll get for now.

                                Sub'd
                                When I tour out west I'm hoping to see this beauty


                                Don't tell me life is so short, what have you done that's longer?
