New sticky for people to post pics of their audio systems, upgrades, bluetooth setups, etc.

Note I will try and keep this thread clear of other crap just so it's easier to see the pics!

Let's see your pics guys!

No ones posted in this thread? Guess I should.

Pioneer AVIC-F900BT Head unit, with GPS, DVD, TV, Ipod, SD card, USB and more.



Ipod control is from the unit itself



Schneider amp, 800W 4 Channel Bridgeable



Cant really see it too well, but these are Hertz Splits, Mid driver and tweeter, no 4" though, couldn't afford 3 ways



Twin 12" Alpine Tyre R Subs, 500W RMS each (but they are only running about 200W cause I dont have a monoblock)



Rear doors running off the head unit and faded right out.

Headunit is cool! Looks like pioneer are more Ipod minded now, with the album art etc, got any pics of you going through the ipod menu (scanning through lists of songs etc)

2x Type Rs? OMG, i had ONE running off a 1200 watt alpine mono block and it was so powerful it shock the cars around me easy. Your going to have some fun with those!

[scotty1991]

Sure







Forgot to mention it also does bluetooth phone, hands free, etc

What wiring harness and fascia plate did you use for the instalation, I just ordered the connects2 CTSVW002 with the ctpioneeerlead to install the same head unit in a Tiguan, can't see it been much different to install than a golf.

I found this handy video at tdiclub when I was looking for tool for removing pins from radio connector. Some handy tips toward the end.

This could be a cool thread if people actually posted up.

My budget install so far:
Pioneer DEH-4250SD head unit, nothing fancy but does all I really want (only photo I have of it haha, during the finishing stages of removing the previous horrible attempt at wiring the previous owner had done)


4 guage power wiring and home-made completely sealed and reinforced box built to recommended specifications, sounds great but looks horrible thanks to a less then desirable finish from cheap spray paint haha. might have to carpet it.


MB Quart DSC480 - 4x160W RMS amp, running front speakers and bridged to 320W RMS for the sub


JL 10W0v2 4 ohm 300W RMS sub



next up is some decent splits for the front, although the stock VW speakers take almost 80W RMS much better then I was expecting

I posted in the Polo forum, but may as well repeat here to keep the thread active!

I fitted a Kenwood DDX-5036 2-DIN unit last week to my 2006 Polo GTI:

And Top Gear



Sorry for the dim photos - the sun was too bright to see the screen so had to put the sunshield up!

Did it all myself, used an ISO connector and removed the pins, plugged the individual pins into the VW connector and it works! Just waiting for an antenna adapter from the UK.

Here's mine, all work done by myself and tryed to keep it on a budget. Before the 0 guage, dynamat and alternator it did a 137db on a termlab playing music. That was about 11-12v . Currently holds at 14.5v on idle.
Mostly Jaycar response gear, speakers are the higher end PMI Kevlar splits that really blew me away.
4x100wrms to the speakers
1x1000wrms to the Soundstream T5 12.
Box is 1.75cuft tuned to 37hz covered with an inch of furniture foam and then skinned in suede.
Dynamat throughout
0 guage
Big 3 upgraded
100amp Volvo alternator
Alpine IVAD105e
Optima D34 yellowtop
Custom rear quarter panels
Custom volt digital gauge and switched for amps
Door pockets are off an unknown car but modded to fit
Electric windows with auto window up, 2 way paging alarm, curtest light and other nifty bits and bobs.

The mono block will be upgraded to a 1200wrms Hifonics Brutus as will a few other things.
