Door speaker install question(s)

I purchased Polk DXI 6500 component door speakers and I am going to have them installed in a 2010 Camaro, that did not come with the Boston Acoustic stereo.  I had an amp installed in the trunk over a year ago at best buy it's an alpine 710 watt five channell and it is only running my 10 inch alpine sub right now and want it to run the polk's once there installed.  My question is what else do I need to buy before I go to the best buy installers?.  a year ago I was going to have them install the speakers and there were multiple mix ups on there part.  So I want to make sure I have everything when I take it in.  have already ordered brackets specifically for the camaro so the actual doors speaker installs should be much easier for the techs, but I know that I need to buy LOC for the back of the radio (I think)and some more wire, but I would just like someone to point me in the right direction on the Best buy web site so I could purchase all the items ahead of time so I don't run in to the crap I did last year when I brought my car in! 

if you are wanting to run the rest of your speakers off of the factory radio than all you will need is another line out convertor.  Are you replacing all 4 or just the front? since you already have the amp installed you might not need another line out since it is a 5 channel amplifier.  If you are going to run all 4 speakers off of the factory radio than what i would have you purchase is a  isve61 it is a 53.99 dollar part that all installation bays should have.  That part will act as 2 line out convertors and make for a cleaner install instead of running 2 line outs.  
If you are only going to be runnin the front two than all you would need is 1 line out convertor that is 14.99 fierce audio.  again it all just depends on how they decided to do the initial amp installation.  
If you came to my shop and wanted all 4 done i would add on speed wire that is 30 dollars, that is so that i can make all my connections from the back of the stereo and have all the wires cleanly ran in one big loom, instead of multiple wire runs, but i would debate doing this for jsut 2 speakers.  I would personally just call the techs that are working there and see what they want to do since they did the original installation.  
Good luck!

    Hi C,
    No, you should wait till the end of the Welcome video, when the message says it will restart to finish installation it means installation is still in progress, conclude the procedures.
    Happy installing, good luck.

  • Free download, and install question

    Free download, and install question.
    I need to buy a larger h/d, but till then I would like to put as many programs as possible on a external usb drive that I have hooked up to my PC.  I've been able to do this with some other programs, and would like to try it with my Adobe Reader and Flash.  When down loading and installing it does not give me the option to install in a defferent location other then my C: drive.  Can this be done?  Thanks you?

    From the MSI you have to create a MST (Transforms). In the MST create now the new property INSTALLDIR=F:\, where F: is your USB-drive. If you use then the command
    msiexec.exe /i [MSI] transforms=[MST]
    Adobe Reader should be installed to F:

    Any suggestions??

    Hi,
    Do you use this book ? Very simple, on some old models you have to remove the keyboard.

  • Amp and Speaker Install Cost

    How much would it cost roughly to install a 4 channel amp, two component speakers in the front doors, and 2 normal speakers in the rear deck of my 1998 oldsmoblie intrigue, both speaker pairs hooked up to the amp. i dont need an exact, just a general ballpark.

    Hello macg114,
    My best recommendation would be to stop in to the store and talk to the Install Bay tech. He/she will be able to give you a better idea of cost. Hope this helps.

  • Upgrading to  Mountain Lion Pre Install Questions

    HI:
      I will be installing Mountain Lion Next week.
    I have read through many of the turotrials and quired most of the following  I still have a few questions.
      I have some concerns in particular regarding the contents of my mail boxes and mail.
    I have backed up unto an external harddrive using time machine. When I click on the mail app I can't access it and see if the contents are there. I just get a window showing the specs.
      From what I have read all my documents applications and system info are backed up.
    1} Will the contents of Mail Inbox and personal Mail Boxes be either on the external drive or in Mail itself after I upgrade?
    2} Will I need to up grade iWork  and other Mac programs after the upgrade?
    3} Does time machines automatic backup, back up everything or do I need to do a manual back up for some thing?
    4} Will I need to load new drivers for external devices such as my printer and mouse?
    5} Will I need to reload third party soft ware such as Adobe Elements 9?
    6} Will my bookmarks and homepage be saved in Safari?
    Lot's of Questions, I have limited broad band width and will need to do most of this from a friends and internet cafes so I need to be prepared time wise and finanancialy as some things will have to be done at home and are going to push me into the next teir of my flex plan, possibly past the final teir.
    Any and all advice will be appreciated.

    1. You have a backup of your mailboxes in Time Machine that you can restore, but Mail won't modify your mailboxes during the upgrade. The first time you open Mail after the upgrade, it will upgrade your mailboxes to be able to work with that new version.
    2. If you upgrade from Snow Leopard, you should know that there's a newer iWork '09 version for Lion and Mountain Lion that make it compatible with iCloud, so you will have to install updates for iWork at least. Respecting to other apps, you have to consult it with the developer.
    3. Time Machine makes a backup of everything in your OS X partition, and it makes automatic, hourly backups. If you want, you can also make a clone with Carbon Copy Cloner or Disk Utility's Restore feature in another external disk. The advantage is that you can start the Mac from it.
    4. Theoretically, Snow Leopard, Lion and Mountain Lion use the same printer drivers. Respecting to the mouse, if you are using a third-party mouse, you have to consult with the developer if your mouse is compatible with OS X Mountain Lion.
    5. Third-party apps won't be deleted unless they aren't compatible. See > http://www.roaringapps.com
    After downloading OS X Mountain Lion, I recommend you to make a bootable copy with Lion Diskmaker, so you won't have to download OS X Mountain Lion each time you have to reinstall OS X Mountain Lion

  • Bootcamp and Windows XP/7 Install Questions

    I got an iMac a few months back and want to set up BootCamp for a Windows install.
    I have a Windows XP Full install disk w/the product key.
    I also have a Windows 7 Upgrade disk.
    From what I have read, the newest version of Bootcamp will not install XP, which I could then upgrade to W7 (I assume this is correct).
    Can I then install from the Windows 7 Upgrade disk and at some point indicate the XP Product Code?
    Secondary question - assuming I get Windows installed and running properly, if I boot to the Mac OS, can it see/access the Windows partition?
    Thanks,
    Steve

    If the Windows 7 Upgrade is a full install. What you would do is install, then reinstall over itself. And only then will it activate.
    There are upgrades that are to go from Home Premium to Pro and that isn't a full install.
    Windows 8 CP is free and works.
    Windows 7 System Builder are $99 for Home Premium 64-bit

  • Hard drive install question

    I want to install a second hard drive in my HP dv7-6c95dx. the main drive that is in it now is a,
    750GB 5400RPM hard drive with HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection
    I want to put in a second drive (the one above) for a total of 1.5TB of hard drive storage. ok now my question,
    is the "HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection" a gimmick or does it really work? should i just get a drive of the same brand and forget about the "HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection"? I want to get the exact matching drive but HP wants $256 for it (ouch!),
    and that does not include the cable. is it worth the extra $130 or so for the matching "HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection"?
    Or should i just get a matching brand hard drive and forget about the "HP ProtectSmart Hard Drive Protection"? 

    Hi,
    Sorry, I should have been clearer on this, I meant that you should physically check the drive currently installed in your notebook.
    Best regards,

  • Acrobat Media Disk install question

    My question is if there is any fundamental difference between the optical media contained in boxed products of Acrobat and the media kits that come with volume licensing agreements.
    IE: Can you install a license using a volume license key with boxed product media.
    If not why not? With product activation this would not make sense to me.

    Historically the volume license versions have sometimes differered
    from the retail versions, not only in packaging, but technically. For
    example, with Terminal Server systems, you needed the Volume License
    version of Acrobat Professional 7.0, as the retail version did not
    work.

  • InDesign CS3 - Vanilla Install - Question Marks All Over My Content

    Yes, I'm still using InDesign CS3 on my MacBook Pro from 5 years ago. CS3 has worked like a charm and I've never had a problem with any files until this morning.
    I've got a 120 page book, each page with images and text boxes, none of which are threaded. I opened my file this morning and all my content boxes: images and text have question marks on the top left corner.
    I have no plug-ins. The installation is straight out of the box with the occasional updates, which stopped quite awhile ago.
    The error that pops up when I place the cursor in a text box is: "31-40-TasksAssemble-Instal.incx" cannot be located.  Another error is: "31-40 TasksDirectly supe-1.incx cannot be located. I have no idea what these mean and when I did a Google search there were only 3 returns and they were from what appeared to be software pirate sites. I can't find a reference to this on the Adobe forums either.
    I've saved under a different name, different file type and replaced the preferences, all to no avail. I think the application is behaving as though I've "checked out" the content, but I don't share my files with anyone and the file itself isn't on a network - there is nowhere to check out to, and the commands to check in is grayed out so I can't reverse the behavior.
    I'm stumped and I have a deadline! Can anyone help??
    thank you!

    No one has worked on or had access to this file but me. I'm on a network but I'm a Mac in a PC world and no one would even know how to find my hd, let alone do anything on it.
    I have to believe it is related to my moving my entire project folder to an external hd (not just the file as I mentioned before) as a means of backup. I don't know why it would matter or what it could have done unless there are files created in the Library that are somehow related/linked to the stories.
    I'm still searching the Adobe Forums for something related but all ID/IC related discussions relate to people actually using IC!
    I've unlinked all of my content from IC and now I'll have to see what happens.
    [POSTSCRIPT]
    I've been editing my layout most of the day and so far so good.
    The oddity of each box asking for a link to InCopy, which has never been used, happened only after I dragged my project folder to an external hard drive as a precautionary backup. All InDesign files in both original and backup folder suffered this problem. I didn't dare open any other ID files for fear of corrupting them so I can't say how widespread this problem would have been.
    I do not know why making a copy of a folder would have created this problem and I can't find any discussion thread that talks about it, much less sheds any light on the subject.
    After unlinking all of the boxes from their non-existent "host file" the boxes remained intact complete with images and formatting. I saved often!

  • Oracle 10g Install Question

    Hi All,
    I have to install oracle 10g onto a server where there is existing oracle 9i software.
    Is it safe to go ahead with the install, while the 9i databases are up?? what are the consequences of doing this?
    OS patches and kernel parameters as required for oracle 10g have already been changed.
    10g is being installed into a different oracle home and i would choose not to overwrite any of the files as asked by root.sh script.
    OS is hp-ux 11i (11.11).
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.
    Sorry for not being clear in my question earlier.
    I am planning to install Oracle 10g on a server with existing 9i software. My question is whether we should shutdown all 9i databases for the duration of the install or we can leave them running as long as we do not overwrite any 9i files including files in /usr/local/bin directory that contains oranev etc...
    To be on the safer side it is always recomended to shutdown any oracle instances running before we start the install. Wanted to know the consequences if we have them up and running for the duration of the install.
    Thanks & Regards

  • SSRS Install Question

    I have a very simple SharePoint 2013 setup, 2 web servers, 2 app servers, and one SQL 2012 SP1 server. I have been asked to integrate SSRS into the farm. My DBA has installed SSRS in integrated mode on the SQL server. However when I run Install-SPRSService
    from the SP Management Shell on my app servers, I get an error stating that is an unrecognized command. All the documentation I can find on this topic only discusses a single server SharePoint setup (WHO DOES THIS?).
    I tried to download and install the SQL Reporting Services add-in on my App server. This
    seemed to fix the unrecognized command issue, but then I get an error when creating the service application for SSRS that states there is a missing registry key (Installation Error: Could not find SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\110 registry
    key).
    So my question is, what am I missing? Are there additional installation components that are required on my SharePoint servers? If so, what needs to be installed on which server (WFE & APP).
    Thanks

    Hi there,
    Can I just check, The SSRS server that the DBA has installed in integrated mode, is that on a server that has the SharePoint binaries installed and has been added to the farm?
    If it hasn't, then it needs to be.
    Once this has been done and you've created the service application and proxy using the commands on Steve's blog, you then need to add the Reporting service plug in on all servers that will be hosting pages. (Bare minimum your WFEs)
    Paul.
