So I have collected the following items for my sounds system in my S.

- Head Unit (alpine cda-9886)
- Diamond Audio D6 Components D661S
- 1 JL Audio W6 10" (going to have an enclosure built)
- JL Audio 300/4 (4 channel amp)
-Dynamat


What else will I need to put the system in my MY01 S? I know I need wires but what kind and what brand? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

 

A lot of people have used http://www.knukonceptz.com/for their wiring needs including me. I'm on the fence with their products because i've had good and bad experiences with them.

For wiring you'll need -

4 ga power wire from battery to amp mounting point
4 ga ground wire from amp to nearby grounding point
4 ch RCA's cable (or 2 2 ch cables)
Remote wire from HU to amp (DO NOT buy the cable with the included remote wire from knukonceptz. If you do I wouldn't recommend using it)

Postive battery terminal for power wire from battery to amp
Inline fuse (most power kits include this) to run on the power wire
Lots of speaker wire to run from each door to amp and from sub to amp. (A LOT. Don't skimp on this it will make things easier)

Custom door brackets for your mids - https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.ph...&f=26&t=269226
If not there is a site that sells them (or used to I don't remember the name off the top of my head)

At least 18 spade connectors for the speaker wires (6 on each crossover, 4 on the amp side and two for your sub)
Ring terminal for ground wire
Two spade connectors for power and ground wire to amp

Car to HU specific harness for the HU
Heat shrink tubing for different connections

Lots of time, patience, and if you're like me...

 

DCI if you wanna keep the dash controls.
