Oregon and Washington BS thread

If you're referring to the headache rack, it looks nice!

 

I'll be in Seattle tomorrow if anyone's interested in my compressor...

 

It was a pretty loud thump haha

 

Haha if I was referring to my truck what would you say ?

 

Any insight gents?

Your RCAs will carry your speaker signals from your deck to your amps. You will need to run new wire from your amp to your speakers.

As for the wiring harness, the generic Scosche or Metra kits will work (can check out the harness part # on Crutchfield and order anywhere else). You can use the power, ground, dim, and remote wires from the harness and ignore the stock speaker wires (green/purple, usually) since you're bypassing the factory amp.

If you have steering wheel controls that you want to maintain you will need an adapter (also made by the same manufacturers of the harness kits).

Hope that helps.

 

I did know that but I'm more curious of where to splice into the wires. So as that I don't have to run wires to each speaker. Utilizing the factory wiring. I was going there was some wire Harness I haven't seen that bypasses the amp easily

 

I see your question now.

Depends on what speakers you will run. I'm not a fan of splicing into factory wiring due to my obsession for details and my training while working in a higher-end shop.

With that said, you can get away with splicing into your factory wiring behind your deck. The weak point will be your spliced area.

The majority of stock wiring, if yours hasn't been manipulated before, will be wrapped in black electrical tape. Just find the corresponding speaker wires and splice into them there.

 

But if I slice behind the deck it will go to the the factory amp from there correct?

 

Yep. Sorry. Long day.

You'll have to splice past/down stream of the JBL amp.

 

Figured. Thanks!

 

So, whos mount do I go with for an antenna? I am thinking Relentless, because it is by far the best price. Anyone else have any ideas? I also like those corner tie downs... I see some on CL I would like to pick up if they would work for an antenna.

 

I would say 'Meh...'

Kidding. Looks good man.

 

Any local street bike riders?


I have some misc m/c gear I need to sell so I will post up some offerup posting shortly; just gauging interest.

 

I'm currently looking for my first street bike. What type of gear do ya got?

 

Two Arai helmets:
1 - Giacomo Agostini replica (I think).
2 - RX7-RR Phil Reed replica LMGTFY.

Three sets of gloves:
One gauntlet style made of deer skin from Thurlow in San Diego.
One gauntlet style with thermal lining made of deer skin from Thurlow in San Diego.
One racer style with carbon fiber knuckles, tan/black, made of kangaroo skin and sewn with an arch in the palm - strange at first but actually works well.

I'll get some photos and post in classified

 

Question for your NW folks, Im going to be road tripping up to Portland/Seattle from SoCal in the beginning on July. Are there any fun/local trails between Portland and Seattle that I can hit? I have found a few different places through my research, but figured you all might have some better insight.

Thanks!

 

Boggers don't have shit on these haha

 

how much hp does that clipboard give

 

If gives it better traction, not hp.
