It was playing fine but only radio and audio cd and all my music on mp3 usb. Then last week the volume button apparently stuck at max volume so I was jus using dat as a cue to upgrade. Was trying to make it work with the mp3 player via radio but dat sucks.
Yup. Mines broke. Hearing price of it can be up to 600..i leaving mine jussokavaninho wrote:Be careful with the dash panel you remove over the radio. This usually becomes brittle in tiidas and break quite easily.

iirc tiida harnesses does not have the ground in them so you may need to just tie the wire from the radio plug to the vehicle chassis.
Look at a few youtube vids and you will be ok.
The universal pocket doesn't really mount flush. U may have to make your own screw pointseitech wrote:kavaninho wrote:eitech, do it yourself. It is super easy.

Dayton Audio RS150P

I ready to buy, but was hoping to find something locally.
I is a dumbfvck and do my own installs.Learning new skills is always a good thing.I have found that some people here are very helpful with guidance.*KRONIK* wrote:So we on the topic of advice:
I bought a full system (equipment: amp, sub, coax, components etc) from a padna/installer.
Now we go wayyyyyyy back, since high school days.
He did my system for me back the earlies and i was never disappointed.
His work is on a high level of quality and i am comfortable with him handling the work then and now.
I had been out of the car audio scene for over 12years.
Decided to do a lil SQ system in my van.
So all the equipment had been acquired:
5ch amp matched to all speakers
6.5" coaxial
6.5" components
10" flat sub
I also have techflex, lugs, ferrules, etc, already purchased.
So he fell ill a few months ago.
I can sympathise with that....
He back out working, and have other men from deep south telling me i aint getting thru now, how i hadda wait.
So i called him....
He said the place not fit to take work, but said that he take a "squeeze in" job....
He say i hadda wait a month again, i have been waiting 3 months already.
1 month again is christmas week, i want my van to use, plus i have other appointments for other things in my van upcoming.and i dont want a situation where i getting a slot for something else and the van scrap out eleswhere.
So the question is:
Wait the month, because is my padna and going elsewhere makes me ungrateful and impatient?
Or
Fyah for that, NOT ENOUGH RMS PUMPING, and take it to someone else to install?
Or
Fyah for music and sell out everything. Everything BNIB
Whats y'all thoughts?
Fyah bun he! I would advise you to do it yourself. It shouldn't be too hard and you can always come here if you have any questions regarding your installation. There are plenty helpful car audio people here that can answer your questions.*KRONIK* wrote:So we on the topic of advice:

install door speakers & run speaker wires to amp location , if u doing sound deadening to ur doors : do that 1st

I haven't used the RS150Ps, but generally I've found Dayton Audio drivers to be competent.
Note, if it's a 6.5" driver that you're looking for the RS180P is a better bet. It's basically the size of the Silver Flute W17RC38s.

I ready to buy, but was hoping to find something locally.
I own two pairs of the 4 ohm silver flutes as well, I'm pretty pleased with them. Also have a pair of Dayton RS180's (Aluminum cone) which was uninstalled. Both worked/sounded fine. The dayton however has an oversized flange which I did not like.

final stage, adjust decks settings & start to tune ur amp ... if u need help with that check ur padna
It started off as a 12v accessory system
I figured, if i hadda bring a current wire in the cab, may as well put a size big enough to support an amp (in the future)
And i am perfectly capable of handling the majority of the install.
Pioneer NEX series deck is already installed.
I already drilled off the rivets on the doors
Installed stainless steel rivnuts
Sourced PVC risers/adapters from LSC
Installed NVX silicone baffles
Backed the risers with closed cell foam (for vibration)
I already made up a harness (soldered, heat shrink, tesatape) with speedwire and a Metra dash harness.
I know the best things is to run fresh wires, but i wont do that until the van is repainted, then i will do new wires from amp to speaker and full sound deadening.
I even have the speakers installed in the risers already.
I buy harness adapters for the doors, so i wont have to cut the OE speaker plug. Will cut and extend the adapter instead.
As for the front, i just need a location to mount the passive crossover.
Sail panels have been cut and modified to accept the new tweeters. Those are installed already.
RCAs have been labelled
My biggest hurdles are to build a rack under the seat to accept the current wire to a distribution block and wire the 12v system and amp.
2nd hurdle is that i no wood work skill....at all.
So i prefer not to waste time trying to do that
...i prefer pay for that service.
3rd is the box....i was looking at a design with a bottom slot port. Also looking at incorporating the amp behind the seat, near the box.
Back to previous point, i dont know much about box building/tuning etc.
Hence i opted to have someone experienced do it.
Finally, i just need the speakers check to make sure i wire the polarities correct and i think i go be good dey.
Was considering adding an epicentre, but thats neither here nor there ATM.
