Pioneer HU install in a 96' Mitsu - 3 questions
Need some help with this if possible. Tried looking for diagrams but I can only find for stock decks. So my question is, which wire does what, and what colours match up? Its a Pioneer 8400MP and a 96' Clipse Spyder
2nd question is regarding mounting. My ride was broken into and my old deck was stolen, and somehow the idiots broke the mounting brackets behind the dash. Whats the easiest way to mount the deck without using MDF? I should also mention I dont have a sleeve for the deck..
3rd Question, I need to make a custom box for the trunk, but having serious space problems as this is a Spyder. I only have about 1.25ft deep by 2.5 ft wide. I currently have 2x 5.25" Infiniti's in the front and 2x 6x9" Rockfords in the back. I just want it to sound better then stock so I'm looking for one or possibly two 10's in the trunk.
any help appreciated

If they broke the factory mounts, might want to check out some auto wreckers in your area, or talk to the parts department in your local dealership (probably be costly though). For the wiring of the deck, you should use an aftermarket to factory wiring harness, if you don't already have one. One of these dash kits might work for you: http://www.metraonline.com/product_listing.php?year=1996&make=Mitsubishi&mode l=Eclipse&type=Turbo%20Kits

As far as doing a box, I helped with an install a few years back on an Eclipse Spyder, did a single Kicker 10" in a fiberglass box, worked nicely.
