I also rewired mine for component speakers in the sail panels. I installed 8 inch subs in the rears with 6'5" full range component speakers in the front and rear seats and 1" tweeters up front. Sounds really good for a 500W system lol.

 

yea, i like turning up the bass a lot, but have found that if you have friends in the back seat, you need to be careful as that speaker is inches from their head and they don't appreciate pounding that close.

 

Camaro has a back seat? You mean the cushions in the back? I thought those where just for putting stuff. A human will fit back there?

 

haha, yea, crazy eh? i have a lot of friends who drive weedwhackers, so when i got the camaro, they would all pile in for a drive.

crazy what people will do.....

 

I don't know if this is the right place to post this so someone who knows what their doing please pass it on. I changed the head unit on my 2002 convertible with monsoon amp I had it installed by a shop that does impeccable work. Shortly afterward after 18 or so hours the bat. was dead. After2 new batteries later same problem. I was freaked out of my mind. Just by chance I pulled the 25 radio ecc. fuse and the problem stopped. By the way the stock system with a low powered deck and sub and amp sounded outstanding. This problem happens all the time the new head unit fries the power on mechanism causing the amp to stay on I heard 100 ways to fix this problem all of witch I was too lazy to do. After a brainstorm I went to walmart bought a fuse holder some male wire connecters for five dollars in five minutes time I crimped the male connecters together plugged one end into fuse block ignition then removed the radio acc 25 amp fuse and plugged the other end of my fuse holder contraption into the right side of where that fuse was and put the 25 amp fuse into the contraption and wala now the amp only comes on when the key is in ignition position and the problem is solved for five dollar and I was willing to pay couple hundred to fix this problem. I hope this will help someone who is going crazy with a dead battery and you are welcome,

If you have a 98+ Monsoon/Delco w/CD Changer port, get the USA Spec PA11-GM45 for AUX RCA & iPod/iPhone inputs & steering wheel control if you have the steering wheel buttons.

 

It sounds like your amp is staying powered and not shutting off with the stereo. Look on the forum here for the schematics for your vehicle and make sure your amp is plugged in correctly with the aftermarket head unit. If you have an aftermarket amp you will need to run new power wires to it and also check to make sure it powers down when the radio does.
