It's working now. I don't know what was happening last night. Do either of you have pics of the brackets? Trying to see how you mounted it. I also ran my remote with to the bazooka and am using the aux pwr out for remote turn in. That way if I don't want the sub on I can conserve energy.

That is a cool idea on the remote power. My sub is here and finally finally my soundbar has shipped - I have been assembling all components and it is looking like next weekend will be a busy mod day

First 2 pics are the L Brackets I made, the third pic is under the bed. This metal strap is on the outside and a piece of angle aluminum is bolted to it on the inside under the seat and one end of the sub sits on it.

Looks good bud! They sure make a huge difference in the sound quality of the system!

I'm tempted to drill a large port in the front of the compartment to try and dive more sound out. I would like more bass than it is kicking out right now. It sounds awesome standing next to the machine.

You could use a shower drain. Then get a blow out plug for water you'll be in both under 10$.

What's on the back of that plug? Looks like a hose. Do you put the plug in when you wash or get in water? What's the purpose?

heck yea! how does it sound?

@nbomar are you saying it sound better outside than sitting in your Honda? or you just want it to drive more bass all around?

Yea it sounds a lot better standing next to the vehicle than it does in it. Has to be the direction the sound is going. Hopefully a port can re-direct that.

So then it's just a stand 3" plug?

I think 2 1/2? But if you get the drain just fit it. Seals flat in that area. We use it for water crossings but it's also nice to drop the bass level so you can run it both ways. Painted the first one black but red is a better warning lol

Here are my 3 tires with sidewall cuts after being vulcanized. The guy who repaired them said no need to even run a tube. I might run a tube just for safety but glad they are fixed. $75 for all 3.

Ok smart guys with your electrical knowledge. How could I hook up my battery tender so it charges both batteries. Is this possible? I don't have a dual lead off of the tender or it would be easy. Didn't know if I could do it from the isolator or something.

As soon as the battery is charged up and gets above the voltage threshold, it closes the isolator and charges both batteries.

That's how mine is hooked right now but that won't charge the primary battery I don't think. Isolator won't let it back feed through.
