My accord is just stock....for now. i was thinking of getting this 900w system in my car and replace all the spkrs and the head unit.
Now the problem is, i was goin to do it, until a few days ago i noticed something really wierd. if i turn the music up on my stock tape HU, the interior lights dim like crazy. i think they're too dim to begin with but they get worse. i havn't noticed the headlights dim at all.
I kno the battery is old, and i am going to replace it, but ive been wondering if i need a new alternator, as far as i know, it has not been replaced at all. Now im faced with the dillemma of what to do. Should i get the system and the battery neway, and risk finding out that the car can't take it, or find a new, much more pwrful alternator, and then get the system? ne advice would really be appreciated.
