Hello!

[Janguli]

So I blundered into this community and was a jerk. Since that time I owned up to my poor behavior and the vast majority of you all have accepted my apology and made me feel welcome. I wanted to say thank you and to any that still are annoyed with me I understand and accept that words and actions have consequences.

I'm one month approximately into ownership of a 2020 Aurora black, thanks Merlin , GT1 with red interior. So far I have had it tinted, a JL 10W0v3 sub installed, a Kenwood X502-1 amp with a knob fitted under the dash so I don't need to mess with the infotainment while driving to adjust it. Today I will receive the E badging for the hood, wheels and steering wheel.

I had a difficult time finding a good solution for my phone without the cord getting badly kinked in the spot for wireless charging so I ended up with TOPGO cup holder phone mount with a Anker 1 ft lightning cable. I mention the cable because its the perfect length for this set up. I don't think the cable measures one foot however, looks a bit shorter.

Glad I found this community and appreciate all the information and members.

Welcome to the Hive! Anyone who can own up to mistakes, or fall on their sword always gets a second chance in my books! I would love to see your sub setup, as it's an upgrade that I'm thinking of doing (I even have some of the parts already)

FYI I have found some 6" cables with 90degree ends on Amazon that work great (iOS and Android)

Excellent intro. Officially, welcome to the forum.

I took the hatch cover off for the photos, the sub is held down with like fifteen little strips of the hook side of velcro, keeps it very secure, enough to the point I cannot move it to hide the little bit poking out. The amp is at the most posterior spot in the spare tire well, under the carpeted floor. I know many say they have no issue with the hatch rattling, for the most part I do not except for when I go over significant bumps. Not the most elegant solution but I found that a strip of insulation tape completely eliminates any sound, I will see what I can do for a more long term better looking fix. Then I figured I would just throw in the phone holder and cord so you see what I am talking about.

Looks good! I'll upload a pick of my cable setup when I run out later this evening.
I'm going to try and make or get a custom box that tucks in the wheel gap, But I have to build up some serious courage to do it myself


Edit - uploaded pics
The red & grey is the iOS one that I probably should have shown plugged in
