Hey folks,
Am wondering if we can make a list of some of the more common car audio web sites for references. For the sake of simplicity, the Mfg., their web link to main site is probably a good start.
Would like it in alphabetical order for ease of use too.
Examples:
Adire Audio: http://www.adireaudio.com/
Alpine Audio: http://www.alpine-usa.com/
Audiobahn: http://www.audiobahninc.com/
Yes, this will be a long list and we may need several guys with good data bases on such things to pull it all togther. Then someone to collate, organize and install into the site as they come in.
Imagine how much easier this will be to find products, specs and other important info.
Comments,
Swez THINK
PS My computer has been a bit flakey of late, so I really don't want to be the collection point for now. Will help assemble the list and collate it, but need some additional help to collect site data.

I, myself would like to see more sources of decent with better than average price dealers, etailers, etc. With so many sites out there, it's hard to know which one is trustworthy.

That's not a bad idea Ash. Some will bawk at that one due to lack of warranties and selling non-authorized products. This is a real problem and if we do such a thing, a disclaimer will probably need to be included for such a listing.
Comments anyone?

SWEZ ,,, please mark this post as FAQ.
palmquist on 05/28/2005 02:18:27
i have a lot more on specifics such as plating to finish off a special project, leds (even one how to make your own tail light, but that has nothing to do with audio) in case any of you are interested in making it show quality or at least just REALLY REALLY nice looking, i have a few links on steering wheel controls if i can still find it, hopefully....ne way if nebody has any questions on specifics too im sure i have it... i just need to kno and ill find it and give u the best info on it.... so not only just post websites that u kno are good, but also post questions on stuff so ppl can either give u websites to help u out so we're covering more than just the basics

We can probably expand this idea a bit and segment into usable search categories.
I. Car Audio Product Links
II. Materials and Fabrication Links
III. Unique Fabrication Links
You get the idea...

Yeah, that would be great! My next project may have some fiberglass work included and finding particular items is becoming a bit of a task.
palmquist on 05/29/2005 18:36:23
i found all my fiberglassing needs at a local autobody store... not anything like pepboys or autozone, though they mite have it (doubtful, but i never checked), somewhere that is a specialty store.... and if you cant find a store like taht, u mite want to check out a boat store... u can get bigger quantities, same quality, for a lot cheaper...
as for anything else u cant find just tell us....
one thing i do have a question on... ive always just made my mdf rings for my enclosures.. but do u kno of newhere that makes perfect ones.... mine always come out a lil uneven
