				| Been working a bit on the 87. I had a hatch leak and it basically ruined my amplifier. So I took my hatch back apart and resealed the metal to the glass. 
 Then I bought a pair of Pioneer 10"s to replace the 20 year old RTs in my speaker box. Seperated the power going to the mid/tweets from the 10s. Also had to replace 2 of the pyle 4x6s in my sail panels. I kept the pioneer 4x6s from last time when I put the pyles in.. So back in they go.
  The pyle 4"s still seem to work though. 
 Bought a Sound Ordinance amplifier. It's crutchfields house brand. It's a 4 channel amp 4x50watt rms. Or it can be used 2x50watt into 4ohm and 1x190watt into 2ohm. Which is the way I wired it up. This amp is so adjustable.. seperate gains front and rear, seperate crossovers, crossover frequency can be set with a switch and adjusted further with a dial. Has a bass boost of either 6 or 12db. I think theres a kitchen sink in there too.
 
 Anyway, got her all installed today.. forget how much work it is. All new wiring from the deck and the battery. Was able to wire the 2 4ohm side panel speakers along with the 8 ohm mid/tweet combo down to 4ohm for each side. The sounds now sooo clear, you don't realize how loud it is..
   
 I actually think these 10s may destroy the box I put them in. Was very lucky that the box has exactly the amount of space recommended.
 
 So on to some pics.
