Im sure it would look good!! Problem is it takes some patience to get it just right. You have to make sure the weave goes the same way, and if you dont take your time heating and stretching the vinyl you get creases.

Unfortunately this is what my baby looked like xmas day. The van was still in the garage waiting to get put back together. Which it is running now with a fresh rebuilt tranny.

Gonna clean her back up and put her back in the garage.

Yea that was xmas day in southeast New Mexico and West Texas.

It was such a joy, everything was closed state closed down highways people here don't know how to drive so there were wrecks and cars in ditches everywhere.
It was awesome.

Places like Minnesota had a brown xmas and we had 6 inches of snow on the ground.

Anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!

Ive posted this in the audio category but does anyone can come with solution or had prior issues as i do...

So I have installed an uncalled4 custom fiberglass enclosure with 12" type r sub, currently powered by the mrp-m500 alpine mono amp in 2ohm output through Sound Acoustics capacitor for power.
Im also running the uncalled4 pnp rockford fosgate amp for the 4 channels instead of my oem amp. Output for the alpine mono amp comes straight from the stereo unit right by where oem amp was connected through fixed line stereo rca output converter. Power (+) and rca wires are ran on different sides of the car.
My issue: When the car is off everything works perfect, when I start the car and start driving I get a rpm rev noise from the sub from about 800-2500 rpms than it goes away after 2500 rpm. Its not a static noise but more of a actual bass, sounds like I have an exhaust

I tried different ground, different positive wire, swapping out rca wires, running rca ground filter, nothing works...
Also I found out that when I am in that range of rpms upon opening any door than the noise stops.
Does anyone know what this possibly could be? Our door trigger wires get a (-) upon opened door, so Im thinking its some kind of interference.
By unplugging the rca fixed line converter and trying to connect the output for mono amp straight on it only makes it louder.
I also tried plugging my iPhone as sound source using aux to rca y splitter right in front where rca would normally connect to the rca fixed converter, no noise was present, that tells me amp and rca wires are good. So it leaves me with the signal that is coming form the stereo unit to the rca inputs on the fixed line converter.
Im stuck

First off, is this static or is it a rumbling? I had the same issue with my install when i was done. It has everything to do with the interior Active Noise Cancellation Microphone. There are multiple ways to disconnect this, but I found that the easiest was to gently pry on the center channel grille and unplug the silver box module for the ANC system behind the speaker. It it the only thing back there. Small green plug.

If its not that; continue reading

from what i read, correct me if im wrong, you hooked up some kind of line level converters for the 4 channel and the sub amp in place of the factory amp, right?

the signal coming off the stereo down the the passenger kick panel need to be interrupted by the line level converters and then rca' plugged into them. From my experience with the converters ive used, they also have ground wires in them that need to be grounded also in the case that ground noise is still present.

I dont know where you caught the input for the rca's to test your phone. With more information I could probable help out some more. I used to do this stuff for a very long time and I did it on mine not too long ago. Let me know some more details.

Had the same issue, it is the noise cancellation. I disconnected the rear microphone and haven't had the issue since. Takes all of 5 mins.
