Progress thread: Frank's Insignia

[zzattack]

Despite a whole backlog of less interesting things to do I made some progress with the audio install this weekend.

I took out most of the stuff in the trunk and found that there was already a bit of dampening material applied. I filled up the largest untouched areas since there will eventually be a subwoofer in the trunk, so a bit of noise insulation won't hurt.
In the back end of the boot was a styrofoam block that seemed to only support the top carpeting. Figured that'd make a great spot for the amplifier. Said and done:


I also tried getting wiring to one of the doors, successfully. First I inserted the crimp pins I extracted from a donor connector of a scrap car in spares in the housing:


Soldered them together and reassembled. Pretty good


Next weekend will be routing the wire to the other doors, grabbing the tulp cables from the glove box where they've been tucked away for some months now.
