awesome install.

is that custom made dash for that double-din screen?

also, the cl's have a notorius issue with the trunk leaking on the driver's side.

i hope that is not the case on your car.

yea i would watch that. my car never leaked before i put a stereo in. the vibrations of my 15'' made something shimmy around and now when i go through highpressure washes i get me a good sized puddle in the rear trunk.

I need to change my set up, im not happy with the shelf running across the back....im thinking of mounting the sub on one side, the amp on the other and havin the ski pass open again. If my tire blows out it wont fit in my trunk. Your screen install is a hell of a lot cleaner than mine.



I also had the 7015 for a couple of days. Then I realized the 8017 was out.

I got the trim piece from StreetEffectz here on the forums. It's nearly perfect. It would be nice if it had tabs on the left and right sides so the graphite (or wood) trim could snap into it like it did on the original head unit. The trim is a little flimsy. Looks great though!

I'll keep an eye on leaks as well. Though my amps are elevated so they should be ok if it just puddles underneath.

I wanted to keep as much trunk space as possible (hence the flip downs). I don't golf, but I do need to throw bags back there occassionally. Plus, it's always handy to have the ski pass open.

I am screwed if a tire blows though. The amp brackets are bolted through the carpet into the metal. Oh well. That's why I pay for AAA.

hello, i saw your set up in your CL and i have a question. I bought my CL without the navigation used and i would like to install a touch screen into it. I see that you have the DDX7015 in your vehicle. I was wondering this, if i install an aftermarket reciever'screen into the dash do i have to change the inside speakers as erll from their factory state. I was told that if i change the head unit i had to change the inside speakers in an Acura. I plan on changing them but not for awhile. I was just wondering if you could give me some insight on the matter because i would like to install a DDX7017 into my car without changing other things right now.

I actually have the DDX 8017

absolutely not, the stock speakers are fine and dont sound half bad when they are tuned with a decent radio!. Ive heard that the amp in the radio + the amps in the individual speakers can cause them to short out...ive never had a problem. You're safe man


Our particular model has an excellent navi system add-on too if you were interested. (7015,7017,8017)

welcome to the site bro!!!

Thx, I was told about the door speakers shorting out because of the headunit amp and i was worried. I want the navi system thats out for the kenwood. I think its the kna-dv4100 i was looking at. Whats in yours? Are you happy with it?

Nice and clean. Do you get any rattling from the amp racks at all?

From the amp rack, no. From the rest of the car, yes Actually it's not that bad from the car, I can't even hear it usually.

The only rattle I have is on a certain bass note (DJ Mark Farina's favorite bass note) on the rear deck. I haven't tracked it down yet.
