Atlas Classic C424 (Canadian Version)
« on: February 08, 2020, 07:56:35 PM »
Hi Group,

My father started this install before he left for winter on the West Coast, and it was getting in the way, so I opted to finish it. Good thing I did as he must've had his crazy setting turned up and wasn't paying attention to the install. Wires all over the place and waay too long.

I redid it for him and did my best to reduce the wire mess. LM-3S, Scale Sound Systems speaker, and a TCS KA-1 Keep Alive. He opted not to include the headlight bulbs for this install, but there is still space for it. In order to use the SSS speaker you have to toss the board and hard wire it in.

Shown are 2 before shots and 3 after shots.

Forgot to mention that there are 2 ribs that need to be removed inside the roof of the shell, otherwise you won't get the shell on!
