Re: ETIOS sings to the tune of Morels, RF R1, Kenwood 846 with Pioneer 2390 DVD.

You are really Technical and you have tried to explain every component with due significance.
Your ETIOS looks great with this makeover. I think Toyota must take the ICE tips from you and then they can really improve the ICE over existing outdated ICE.
The wiring harness has been done neatly and he installation is really professional, much better than the installation done at the Toyota dealership outlets.
I hope to hear from you on the mileage. I wish you Happy Motoring.
All the Best. Safe Driving.[drive]

Freakdude,
Cool job done on your car, neighbro. Good that you have shared detailed pics for all others here.

Just a lil update. The sub and the components have fully broken in and sound damn nice now. Planning a tune-up when I get time to raise the gains a bit. Next in line is damping.

Don't take them so seriously,if you install your system you will not void any warranty,if you are going in for a components upfront,you can use the existing wiring of the tweeters and speakers which come factory fitted,use a jack which is available to plug it into your existing jack in the car,this ensures the original wiring is not tampered with,get the system trim,a speaker installation pad for the rear speakers 6¤9 and you are good to go,have a look at helix,infinity,jl audio,morel maximo.
A component and 6*9 combo would cost roughly 11-12k varying from one brand to another.

Congrats for your Liva. It's a wonderful hatch. Regarding the pushing by sales staff for HU just politely deny them saying you don't have any plans for car audio as of now. Also, everytime they push you for toyota hu, you can change the topic by asking for frree floor mats, mud flaps etc. Would be fun to see their reactions.[evil]

Regarding the ICE config:
HU, you have already finalized. Get a descent pair of components upfront. Sice you are not adding amps so go for Bull Audio components. Next best would be morels of-course. For rear get Infinity Ovals (6x9) on the tray. For a hatch this should give you enough thump. Also, 2390 has a lot of bass enhancing options, so, I guess you would be satisfied with this setup.

Regarding wiring, get your setup installed at a professional installer and keep insisting/repeating during the install that you dont want ANY wires to be cut.

Exactly. It's their job to push stuff to customers. Original speaker wiring is of quite average grade. I'd suggest to go for connection audison speaker cables especially since he is not going the amps way.

hi hareshjethwani,

my toyota dealer in bangalore , told me to bring the accessories like HU and speakers and attachments etc..

he told the fitments will be done at a labor cost of 1000Rs

the warranty will be void only if there is a short ciruit due to wiring
