Saw in another post you made that you have OEM Audio+. I want this setup too but can't justify the cost for how little I drive the car. Blah.

I got a good deal it, but considering how much time Ispend in the car I needed bass and the clean install made it worth it. I still want to upgrade to the RF series with the new door speakers eventually

Couldn't find it on youtube, but I guarantee if you give it a chance, it'll be worth it.

... as long as you know what music is

Edit: If anyone wants more music like this, PM me and I'll send you a link to my new year's day mix. Future music. "Nextlevelness" if you will. Realize, recognize, and understand.

It's not what I normally listen to, but I like it. You'll have a PM in a minute.

I sent you a mix to the new year's day mix. It's note quite as minimal and floaty as that song, but I have a few others that are more minimal if you like what you hear.

Yeah I want the top of the line one with the new speakers. But I'm worried about the install since I'm nerfy. I'll get it if someone offers to help me install everything.

Edit: Someone is selling it http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=113480

It's really straight forward. Speakers cant be much harder I imagine. Just takes time pulling the interior and running the wires to the front

Edit: i think I even have an extra harness that he cut. Mine came with 2 for one of them. Ill check tonight if you are interested in that one

[Clipdat]

Yeah pulling panels and shit I am not good at that.

Plugged my tire myself to buy me some time to get the 6UL wheels and tires. Ruled out the Premier AS after reading owners reviews on it. Gonna see if AT can get tires I don't see on their website.

Also painted the axle back on the Yaris matte black. Lol

It helps if you have those plastic interior panel poppers. Wire nuts may help speed up the speaker installation.

Yeah, i have the panel tool and its amazing. But for our cars you just need a flathead and then yank on stuff. At least for this install

I ordered the reference 400cf system even though nobody offered to help me install it

My friends and I used to have tech meets where we would help each other work on cars (shoot, we lowered a Yaris in the parking lot of an In-N-Out at midnight before, lol). Installing your sound system can be a meet at your place. I'd be down to help, but I've never really popped off the panels on a twin (aside the front dash pieces to gain access to the back of the HU), unlike the Yaris (replaced OEM speakers in the front doors before).
