Hi everyone, got the stereo up and running in my car (see Custom Stereo For 71 Notch a few issues ago) and have encountered one hell of a big problem... A few hours after picking up the car from the audio installers, i noticed a strange rattle everytime the bass kicked in hard, even with it not cranked hard, upon inspection i found a 1/4 inch gap between the seal and the body on the top of the rear window which had not been there before... looks like my subby is physically forcing the rear window out, which is strange considering the sub is in a bandpass box in the front of the car. Anyways, the good blokes at Harding European are doing a strengthened seal for me for $105.00 australian. So much more boomy fun for me!!! :o) And just to reply to the blokes who advised me to check the charging... you were right, i ran the stereo without the engine on for about 20 mins the other day and drained the battery dead flat... looks like i may have to wire one up in parrallel on the opposite side to where the battery currently is. Thanks for letting me get all this out. Sorry its so long.
