  1. That groove in the magnet is for the coax version. That vent needs to be open or it will affect the cooling of the voice coil and overall performance. You'll want to remove that deadener from the opening.

  2. abit late, but what an awsome buil! love the blue and flo yellow! can anyone point me in the direction of a similar rear diffuser? as I've not got the whits about me to cut the evo one

  3. There's an alternate 20-pin harness out there (similar to the Metra 70-7552) that includes the 3 wires for steering wheel controls. That avoids needing to splice into factory wires. And see Tedlasman's post (below) about the alternate OEM fascia / trim piece that has a normal double-DIN opening. That averts needing Metra's dash kit, and you re-use the OEM metal brackets from the OEM head unit.

  4. Hi,
    Just a comment about crossover placement in the doors. Putting the crossovers too far back in the doors will eventually cause some sort of breakage of components when slamming the door repeatedly. Putting near the door hinge is a good spot but putting in the kick panel is a better. Yes more work but failure won't be a problem in a year or so. Yes I am a veteran installer and have seen this failure a few times now.
    Nice to have a Amp/subwoofer system that is basically plug and play. We usually spend hours hooking all this stuff up. Customers just can't understand why it takes so long. Lots of wiring lots of car panel removal and fabrication for components.
    Nice to see a nice clean install!
    Good job!

  5. Too bad you can't put pic. in the comments. I would show you the real audio upgrade in Subaru WRX with set of Focal speakers and JL W7 in the trunk.

  6. Dang!! Look at all the comments, But I actually got a chance to DRIVE IT, yes i that Subaru. I personally added the sensors and turned off the tpms light. My coworker was like dude that car is on YouTube, looks nice on YouTube! Great Video and sweet car!

  7. SOS did a really good change of colour paint job, it showed when u took off the door panels 📛👍. By the way next time don’t block the pole venting at the back of the speaker like you did with the sound deadly next time, other that that great job.

  8. Hey quick thought I had. It's probably worth your guys' time to take the car to a Subaru dealer to get the Takata recall done if you haven't already. I just figure it will save the winner the time so they don't have to go get it done.

  9. Idk if you're able to answer this but I'm new to sound systems. Do you use component speakers in the front and coaxial in the rear? Is there a rule of thumb for this stuff? I want to start a little build sheet for the near future but I am also not too sure where I can get professional knowledge on this stuff online haha

  10. Soldering and some heat shrink would have been a much cleaner way of doing the radio harness to the metra harness. But either way butt connectors are better than the old twist and electrical tape lol
