Got some work done on the 740.
It is moving very slow, but is coming out great
Here is a basic breakdown:
Headunit: Alpine CDA9883
Door Speakers: 4x JBL 508GTi
Subwoofers: 4x 8in Revel (same speakers found in the Ultima Salon2)
Amplifier: Harman Kardon CA5250
Here are some teaser pics:
Amp installed:
Subs:
Ran 1gauge powercable (phoenix gold breaker near battery and Inline Fuse holder in the rear):
Got most of it hooked up. Still need to run one more RCA cable (Belden), then finish soldering the RCA ends to the lines. Still need to cut holes out of the custom panels I made for the subs to go in the floor where the two cargo doors are. I also have to finish sealing the rear door speakers. Then it is just a matter of hooking up the new remote power switch to head unit, finish the headunit mounting location, and putting the fusable link I made in the Inline Fuse holder for power. Everything is hidden which is pretty cool.
Then the testing begins. Hope fully the ground I choose is quiet, and I wont have to redo anything...
now, if only I could get the car to sit a like it does in the sig pic

Got sick this weekend, and was only able to finsihd the rear RCAs..
Finished soldering the Rear RCA Cables:
Basiclly finished with the wiring. Just need to finish the sub mounts and route the RCAs to the amp:
How it looks with the carpet in place:
Only 2weeks left in this semester of school, so focus is on that.

They will go in the two floor openinges on the side of the middle opening where the amp is.
I have the 1/2" sheets cut to size. I just need to cut the 3/4" sheet and glue the two together. Still need to cut the openings but they will have a custom flush mount grill, so if you look, the two pockets will be slightly taller (~1/2") but you wont see anything....
Maybe pics later today.

Had some time today...
Finished soldering the front RCA connectors.
Just need to connect the purple wire to the head unit, then attach the bass level adjuster to the dash, then connect that cable... Then the front will be finished
Here is where the subs will mount ( need to cut the 3/4" and cut the openings, then carpet it, Make the grill, seal it, and screw it to the metal.):
Some more pics of cables...
Here is the ne battery posts we are using:
Here is the new Ground cable for the alternator:
