Hi Chandan

The DIN sleeve doesnt come with the Pioneer HU. It comes pre installed in some cars with the OEM HU. Some people get their OEM HU changed and very often the installer removes the DIN sleeve and keeps it. I suggest you go to a Hyundai workshop as they may some lying around, or any good installer in your area.

If you are making a box for the subwoofer, then it doesnt matter what terminals the sub has. You need to wire the sub to a proper terminal which is mounted on the box. The subwoofer will stay permanently wired to this terminal on the box.
I am talking about the terminal on the box - (in case you need to disconnect the box)
IMO - the best terminal to use is a terminal called SPEAKON - by a company called NEUTRIK. There is also another company called AMPHENOL that makes similar products. If you're wondering where you've heard AMPHENOL before - they are famous for making sim card locks which mount in mobile telephones.

Anyways, the advantage of speakon is that it is leak proof, if mounted well. It has a twist lock system which is fool proof and does not get loose. And when you disconnect the woofer box, the wires (that come from the amplifier) will not touch each other and cause damage to the amp.
You should get Speakon at a store that sells good pro sound and stage gear equipment in Batala - otherwise New delhi is your best bet.

Neutrik is good but not cheap. I've used their XLRs for balanced outputs on my home amps.

Any idea abt price? Can i just put terminal plug which receives just bare wire?

I have also ordered 5 rings,not MDF but marine ply[they call it water-proof] as 'screwing'[ ] MDF will be lil messy.One ring is for subw [ID 232mm,OD290mm,thickness 1/2"]
and 4 r for door speakers[ID 127mm,OD 175mm,thickness 1/4"]

Do i need rings for tweeters?I hope i get the asnwer this time!!

sam,i need ur thumbs up.

If Neutrik is too expensive, try MX. I have used their spade connectors, lugs, binding posts, RCA plugs. Their products are pretty good. Neutrik may be better but MX is VFM maal.

Thanx vivek....
Below is what i read somewhere-----is it right?Can anyone post me a pic of babana plug.Seller here wont be knowing this stuff by english names


Use a terminal that accepts banana plugs rather than spring clips. Banana plugs conduct electric current better than spring clips

RSJ... these are AudioAZcomp (an Audison brand) banana plugs (pic from mclarens install). These are different from regular banana plugs cuz that plastic cover you see in the front retracts back when you plug it in, and comes out automatically when the connectors arent being used. This prevents shorting which otherwise happen on regular banana plugs.




This is the way they plug into the box connector panel. This panel is also from AudioAZcomp Italy. Note the gold plated brass terminals. The MX (indian) variety have plastic terminals.

Banana plugs are certainly better because you can terminate wires properly. With spring clips, you will have to use bare wire ends and could be messy.

No RSJ... All HUs come with the standard sleeve that you have. But that isnt what I meant.

The DIN sleeve I used in that pic, you can get from your Hyundai dealer. It comes prefitted in Accent etc. I am sure they have a couple of them lying around.

That sleeve will replace the alpine sleeve you have. Difference is, it will secure your HU to the inside of the dashboard.

If Sam can give him a call, then you should be getting good install service..
