I finished my Kicker Powersports stereo install on my Pilot. Lousy video shot with my iPad but you can tell it's pretty loud, for what it is... It was a challenge to install it in a Pilot as there is not a lot of room like you get on SxS's, so some compromises had to be made.

My Pilot came to me with a Beard seat, foot tub cut and all... My new seat allowed me to make a "filler" panel to cover the void between the seat and tub, and also serves to mount my amps. I have a full skid plate so the amps are not vulnerable as they look in the pics. Zero chance of deep water crossings for me and all components are Marine rated.

I added an air horn(loud!!) underneath as well, once my skid plate goes on these pics will be difficult to take so I am posting them now. Horn is activated by a momentary rocker switch in my dash, and why an air horn... Because I occasionally get cows on my trails and other stupid nuisance creatures... Lol.

That's awesome. Very nice install too.
Now we want a video of all that other stuff in the background. Seems your shop is a nice size.

Thank you Sir, was fun to do but I must confess my "shop" is only a 24x32 garage... Sigh... But it's warm in winter and good size for working on a single project. I have too many toys/projects and really need to step up my shop size... One day. My '67 Camaro RS/SS, tractor, three motor (( Internal Combustion Engine ? )) cycles, and Pilot are all I keep in there, FL350, two KFX700's, Redline Revolt(snowmobile) and '39 Chevy sedan delivery park in our front garage. Everything else gets rained on so I really need an upgrade...

I feel for you brother. My "shop" is only my garage. In it I have..... 2 FL350's an LT80, a TRX250EX, a lawnmower, the wife's three wheel pedal cycle and my beloved 1966 Volkswagen Type 1. And also a bunch of parts for the VW and all of the other toys. Needless to say it's a tight fit.

When I work on stuff, I have to shuffle stuff out into the driveway. Almost looks like a yard sale when I do it. 2 years ago I rebuilt 3 FL350's for Duneit and when we did that, I had to rent a storage locker to put all my toys in so I could have all of Duneit's Odysseys in my garage at one.

Lol... Your LT80 reminded me I forgot my son's KFX50(same as LT50). I was inspired to build two ATC's (85 and 86 R's) and spent months gathering parts and it all sits in my 14' enclosed trailer right now because I need the room to work on my Pilot. I use my trailer as a storage container when needed and honestly there are days when I just say screw it to some things because there is too much stuff to move around. Seeing how I am an Elevator Mechanic professionally I really should have lifts to start stacking things... Lmao.

Have you had any issue with your stereo cutting out? Not getting enough juice.

eh.. I was just joking around about the elevator job.

It's a nice setup. I hope he's out enjoying his tunes and hammering at it.
