Tomorrow is when the BTL will arrive! I will be cutting the hole in the box, painting/gluing the top on, siliconing the top, then it must dry overnight and maybe a little longer. So I'd say Tuesday/Wednsday I will be hounding hopefully, if I dont run into too many problems. I will have pics of the unboxing and everything else. It should arrive by at least 2:00PM Central time, so check back about 3 or 4 for some pics of the unboxing. =) Thanks everyone for your comments/opinions/advice, I really appreciate all the feedback from you guys. Check back tomorrow for updates!

you could get some quick connect "bullet" style i think they're called, and you could make up some connections for the wires. i had that same voltmeter in my civic, and i know exactly what you're talking about with the short wires and the lack of plug on it. the quick connects have a male pin that slides inside a female connector. that way you could at least unscrew it, pull out the wires, and unplug it.

Got everything hooked up earlier today, and I'm slowly breaking it in. I don't have any vids yet, but it SLAMS! Probably the loudest system at my school, hopefully I can get some vids done tomorrow to show you guys

The Hifonics sounds good with the BTL? Kind of a lower grade amp and a higher grade sub so ive been wondering how they work together. Looks good though, I bet it throbs.
