thanks I appreciate it! Its been a pain so far. I was hoping to deaden my doors a bit better too, but since I have some time constraints It doesn't look like i'll have time for it. I'm going to go ahead and paint the carpet black, finish ALL of the interior trim (this is going to takw forever), bedline the headliner then I should be done, hopefully I can finish by Monday or Tuesday.

Awesome job. That carbon fiber looks sick!


What did you do with the rear? Doesn't all the plastic in the back rattle with the subs?

I've used dynamat on my doors and noticed no difference. It just made the doors heavier lol.

Let us know how all that sound deadening works.

I only had one bad rattle, it was the overhead light. I was just messing with it one day and it hasn't done it anymore.

I only have a single 12 inch sub though lol.

As far as the rear goes i'm going to put some more ccf on the panels, but I never get any sound back there, may be because all of the wiring and my sub box squishes in there... there is barely enough room to lock the seats in place. i'm going to re do my doors with more deadener, ccf, and mlv whenever I get the chance. I think doing the roof and floor will help alot though.

Derian, I'm a relatively new member here. Only had my H3 for around a month. Been reading through this posts on this build from the start. I must say, most impressive for a then 16 year old when you started this! (If I'm reading it right anyway.) When I was 16, I was headbanging metal and trying to get laid. You've got me beat by a mile! :horns:

Had a question about your headlights. I noticed the different colors on a couple of pics. What are those lights, and where did you get them? They look awesome with the work you've done on the H3. (Especially the red!) Thanks for the updates, and keep up the good work!

Thank you! I appreciate it. I used ledconcepts halo's if you're talking about the color changing lights, on my projectors I used just some amazon HID's.

Ran into a butt load of problems with the sunroof after getting everything back in, my genius self put sound deadener on the sunroof rails on accident and the foam was too high in some areas.

had to redo the radio for a 3rd time.

I also ordered the wrong kind of vinyl on accident gloss instead of black so I have to wait until after vacation to finish the big panels.

Other than that everything is in and looking great!

The sound deadening is great much less road noise but i'll have to do my doors too to get rid of the rest of it.

But my subs and sound system SOUND SO MUCH BETTER AND GOT SO MUCH LOUDER. I probably gained 3-4db.

never posted a pic of the amp rack I built so I'll throw that in here too.
