Part 4 - Complete Audio Install

[carrerarod]

Here's another segment in my weekly upgrades. Today's focus was installing speaker baffles in the rear, installed my Kicker components in the front and cleaning things up (wires) with proper gold-plated connectors.

-Installed foam speaker baffles in the rear. Noticed after a recent car wash after I popped the door panels off water on the speaker wires, etc. These baffles are supposed to be waterproof and should help insulate things better.

-When I had initially installed speakers, I did not pay special attention to the connectors. I wanted to break the system in first. I took the time today to install gold plated connectors wherever possible.
