Stereo system from scratch
Hello, I have a 61 c10 and I'm looking to do a complete stereo system on it but this is not my area of expertise, can someone give me a list of all the things I need to complete the system. I have nothing now so I'm starting from the bottom, but I do have a new wiring harness so I can wire this.
Thanks, Ethan Posted via Mobile Device |

Re: Stereo system from scratch
Never thought about a solenoid for the power cable to the amps. Hmm I may add one to my setup. Interesting.
Here is mine. 2 Memphis gold 10 shallow subs.   2 mid ranges in the dash Memphis golds!  Cab corner mounts that I modified and installed 3 ways in.    Head unit.  I did the hush mat in mine with bubble wrap on top then the carpet. The mat is inside the doors also. Amps are inside the console and everything is nice and neat inside the truck.

Re: Stereo system from scratch
Here's a little tutorial from a different forum. I plan using this idea in my truck.
