My build thread **Now with pics**
This will be my build thread. Hopefully remember to update it regularly.
I am starting out with a 2010 Pearl white RzR S 800. So far it is bone stock.I have a good friend whos name is Eric who is helping me with everything from letting me take over half of him garage, use his tools, and also get an extra set of hands. He was a professional stereo builder/installer in his younger years and won many events/trophies for people. He knows his sh*t when it comes to anything audio, fiberglass, and general building things. He owns a very reputable contracting company, so he will be an invaluable resource on this thing. Here goes!
I will do my best to get pictures at things progress.
9/19/12 - Eric installed my new HID's in place of stock location. He got all wiring ran and ballasts mounted. Unfortunately, there is an issue with one the drivers side bulb cutting off after 2 seconds. Will troubleshoot tomorrow.
9/20/12 - Started work at about 3 pm today. With just a little tinkering and testing some possible fixes for the lights, we got everything working correctly. The problem ended up being a lack of power issue. The ballast was noT getting enough power to keep it running because he was testing it with the engine OFF. Cranked up the rzr, let is idle for about 1 minute and bam! The lights work fine and are SUPER bright.
We installed the new stereo system, Infinty 6100M wake board speakers with microphone PA. We got both. We got both Speaker pods (each has 2 speakers) mounted behind each seat on the roll cage. We got all wiring spliced, fixed, and ran along the underside of the rzr following the stock wires. The amp is mounted intside the front hood cubby and will be sealed off the best I can. Pics to come soon of progress.
--The goal for tomorrow will be to finish up everything for the stereo, install some new UTVInc Braces that just came in today. Secure everything and begin re-assembling. The front fascia put back on, install the new to me, stock replacement cage, install the new EMP Cooter Brown roof, Re-install everything over the engine.
Lots to do, but really want to get it all ride ready ASAP. I NEED to go!
