How's it sound? I'm looking at the 4600bhs myself

The sound is great. I've only done a quick eq setup so far just till my sub gets installed. Which will be Wednesday. But the dash and door speakers scream

I have the non Alpine system. Can I still install the 3.5s in the dash?

Yes you can. I also have the non alpine system. Just make sure you get the wiring. Adapters which crutchfield gives for free. Makes the install a breeze.

Not much of a progress update. I ran the power wire and mounted the fuse holder. Right now all my amp wires are sitting behind the back seat since my amp mounts to my box. I will mount my power district block on the back wall then run my power from there. That way I can add my 4 channel down the road. I will have pics of this when it starts

Can you wire up the OEM backup camera into the aftermarket head unit?

 

[Big Boi]

Most of the double din units have inputs for backup camera; So I'd assume yes

Yes you can and actually the Pac harness has connection for that. It is all in the instruction that come with the unit.

Any pics of the subs, box, and amp rack?

Not yet only 1/2 the box came today. The rest should be here tomorrow. I hope to install it Thursday

Thats my question. Does the OEM backup camera have a standard RCA output for any radio?

No it doesn't but the PAC harness will take the stock camera wires and convert it to rcas

 

[VegasDragger45]

Well the rest of box came in today. I'm not 100% happy with the box. The box looks nice but there is 3 dings in the wood that were there before the painted it so that irks me but i'm just going to live with it since it took 2 weeks to get it and all of the screws that are sent to attach the tub fell out of the box in delivery so I was left with just 1.

So the 6x9's wont fit up front?

The ones I bought didn't. They were about 1/4" to deep

Thank you Vegas..

 

[VegasDragger45]

I got everything installed and playing. Sounds great. I will have pics up shortly.

 

[hotrodderscott]

On with it.....lol
cant wait...

 

[Big Boi]

Ditto

 

[VegasDragger45]

Here you all go. Enjoy I will be cleaning up the wiring when I get back from vacation next week. I can't decide if I want to drill a few holes into the new box and run the wires that way. Also as you can see I by passed to speaker plugs and ran 12gauge kicker wire straight from the sub to the amp. I hate the quick connects

 

[VegasDragger45]

Also these pics are from my crappy Iphone 5 with a screwed p camera. I will try and find a better one to take pics with. It looks a lot better in person
