grom makes an interface that will work to add a usb, and there are a couple other brands that do as well. I would go ported on the box. I do not mind at all helping you out. tuning is a little bit harder, but I will do my best and hopefully KHA will chime in on that too. I have a hard time explaining that sometimes.

you can check out my build thread in my sig and also Keep Hope Alive's build threads. they are both stickied. they go fairly in depth but when you get your stuff in, we will start from the begging and walk through it.

Its just gromaudio dot com on that interface.

I would buy the adapter plates if you do not want to cut baffles yourself for the speakers. you may end up still needing to make the baffles for the the front door.

 

I'm about to order from grom. My only question about this is that the grom goes in the port behind the radio that the LOC does too. How will I connect both?

 

the speaker outputs are still maintained and that is what the LOC ties to - the factory speaker wires.

the port for the integration will be separate and not take the place of the speaker outputs.

 

So I can install the grow under the radio. Where does the LOC go and to what do I connect it to?

 

the LOC will connect to the speaker wires. you can use t-taps or solder the connections. the rca's will run out of that to the amp. once installed it just stays tucked in the dash. you will not need access to it.

 

Can I use this to connect the LOC to the wires?

those will work. I prefer these though.

Okay guys. Everything has come in. The speakers. Amps. Cables. LOC. GROM. Subwoofer. Now what should I install in order from beginning to end and how do I do it? How am I going to install the two amps? Where am I going to put them?

 

did you purchase a eq or not? and I would start with the box and the amp rack.
first I would build a box, once you have the box built and you know its foot print in the box you can build an amp rack or racks for the amp.

there is a link in my sig to my build thread and a link in Keep hope alives sig to his build threads. you can look in there for ideas.

once you decide the layout of your trunk you can move on the to next step.

 

What eq do you recommend?
