that one is easy... add a relay to the power cable... relay acts like a switch that follow the key turn... when your key turn to acc, the relay allows the current to flow to on the speaker...

sounds so complicated >_>

nope... simple wiring... just need to understand how a relay works...

so what type of wire i shud use?

This really budgeted

Get an Altec Lansing 5.1, inclusive of Components and Sub

types of wire would be 8g for the power(+) and ground(-), while a normal 14g for the key switch to the relay...

hmm...what if i want to use the power from the cigarette there...

heard the power is 12v...coz if from the front part will be quite hard for me

i suggest u find those speaker from half cut shop or some stock speaker from garage sale better.

sure no problem... but a fuse is a must...

Buy power inverters - 160w or more and that should do the trick - make sure that you have sufficient w to power up your speakers.

Get the accesories shop guys to modify the power inverter a bit straight to your battery - not using the normal cigarette lighter port.

Then put this inverter on your rear bonnet. These inverters should have a normal plug (like the 3 pins we have at home) to plug your PC speakers.

After you got that powered up, connect your PC speakers to your amp (or line out of your player - if you have one) - might need to purchase the right cables for these.

After that, place your speakers somewhere nice

I've seen a kenari with altec lansing before, the driver actually put this upside down (i don't know the model but the speakers are thin and long) bolted it to the roof and damn it look nice.

Post a pic if you manage to do it!

wahh...interesting here...
if can, it would be fun..i want it to...fit fx6021 altec..huhu
concert in a car..anyone doing this b4??
post up some pic n technic...
no need amp bcoz amp edi in subwoofer

hmm... i dun think so dat pc speakers will sound good in car...

the thing is power inverters are expansive...so i''m trying to do something DIY..coz i asked an accesories shop before and the quote me rm110 for wiring from front to back with a small fuse...

so i was thinking instead of wasting the rm110, maybe i can buy better speakers to fit in the car....


@craziechild...u mean even after the power from the cigarette socket also need a fuse?
