Workin on the Z

March 15th, 2009 No comments

Well, I pulled about 45 lbs worth of stereo amplifier and associated crapola out of the back of the Z today.  The previous installation was… decent.  The only problem was adjustability post installation.  There was no way to change anything once installed.  All the wires were completely concealed and couldn’t be re-tightened without removing the whole setup, which took me the better part of 5 hours.  But now that it’s out, all the rattles from the back end of the car are gone. :)  That in itself was worth the effort! I’ll take a picture of all the junk I pulled out later, but at least it’s done.

Oh, and I hooked up two little 6.5″ Polk Audio coaxial speakers in place of the LPF 6.5″ Boston acoustics that were in the middle headrest bar.  MUCH BETTER!

Griffin Technology

Griffin Technology makes a cool little USB device called the Radio Shark 2, and for about $50, you get AM/FM radio on your computer.  Seems pretty slick.  I’ll probably use it for my carputer if reviews of it are good!
