well damn has it been like officially way too long since a BUS update!
granted most its because i have not been working on the BUS during winter, went on to do some LEDs on my 900RR, but thats another thread (which also, surprisingly enough, also needs and update....)
But in the last month or so, trackdays have started again and the BUS has become a priority! I've been trying to get the dashboard in for awhile now, adding a stereo, cup holder, proper mount for the cruise control panel, a boost gauge, autogauge, and a sweet analog VDO Volvo clock that I got at a thrift store cuz its so raddd
The whole dash isnt done yet, but its making good progress. i suspect another couple weeks until I can put the main plastic front piece back on "for good" and call it "done". But heres the progresso so far...
stereo head installed/mounted
cup holders, VW status
shot of under the stereo. some room to put some crap
the 12inch sub goes right behind the drivers seat, between it and the sofa bed.
ran the wires all proper
bought this box a looong time ago, back before I even built the bed. way back then I measured it to make sure this fit you see here would occur
nice and snuggg. speaker protector grill was ordered recently...
the speakers in the middle of the bus were about 4 or 5 inches or whatever. and really, really blown. replaced them with some sweet little units i had laying around
old VS new. new ones were aaalmost so thick that they didnt fit.... but they did in the end!
blown
new ones installed :thumbup
I also put some 6x9's in the back of the bus, but forgot to picture them - so i'll just include that in the next update. but needless to say, now I gots music (and beat!) in the BUS!!!!
