Yeah I am really happy with that meter. 2 inputs, quite a few choices for the graphs. I have it showing a 1min history graph with max and min. I also loaded a trans am logo it shows on boot.

Ah man did all that cool work and then put rear speakers in it .
Nice job it all came together well by the pics. Now put 2 layers of 5 on your backglass and get a good alarm if you plan on keeping it all.

Lol... the rear fill is just for when my daughter is in the back, otherwise they are muted.

Going to get it retinted darker. But it is only a weekend ride and it is parked behind a locked fence with cameras on it. Luckily the area I am in doesnt have a lot of breakins.

Wow. It's like you have a sound system with a car built around it. I only have a car with a stereo inside. lol
Did you have any trouble putting the CDT speakers in the door enclosures, or putting the door panels back on?
