I have a 2008 SLC 3905 and I want to seperate the speakers in my front bedroom from the rest for surround sound for the TV in there and install a 42" flat screen in the main area as well but integrate it into the speakers (Kicker system) for suround sound and be able to switch back for tunes.

Is there a shop in Southern Cali that can tackle this kind of work?

Good question.

I was dissapointed after paying a local car stereo shop some good money for basically nothing. After that, I reviewed all the amp, stereo and tv brochures and was able to figure out and reconfigure my system to my liking. I was able to get amps and speaker sets separated, get tv input into stereo aux, get sub working, get video ipod to work on tv and stereo.

Now to get out and uuussssseee it!

Doesn't your setup the speakers separated by switches already?

Disconnect behind the deck. Everything for routing is there. Also, find a high school kid into that sort of thing. They will love the challenge, it isn't hard if you have a knack for it, and it will be way cheaper than going to a car stereo place. Good luck, and I love that trailer of yours! Cool!

I dont want to go that route as in a young kid wiring it. I'm afraid of the inexperience factor and in worst case, have him fry my electronics. I'd rather cough up the dough to have it done right and the exact way i want.


Shoot, you like my trailer!?!?! Says the guy with the 48 foot FTL, lol! I wanted that same trailer but it wont fit in my RV access at home!

Couldn't you run a switch in line to the speakers? I did this on my boat, and it works great. Did it so I could turn the tower speakers on and off.

Switch in line.. Switch off, no power to speakers.. Switch on, power to the speakers.

It has a switch now to cut them out but what I want is to integrate them to the flat screen in the master bedroom.

Oh, 'sounds like new cabling. I bet someone with first hand knowledge of how the trailer is assembled would be best so that nothing is torn up while running new lines. There are some guys from WW that started their own parts and service business in Perris. You could try Jim Goodwin 951 294-1907. It's called warrior lifestyles gear.

What if you run a set of RCAs from the stereo deck to the new system in the master bedroom, that way you can select which input you want. If you select the input from the main stereo the speakers will play that. Or you select the dvd player in the masterbedroom and it will only play that. Make sense?

I am going to fix the wiring for the speakers in my WW. The left channel is connected to both speakers in the bedroom and the right channel is connected to both speakers the back of the trailer. All of the wiring for the switches are inside the same cabinet with the radio, along with all the sawdust and scraps of wood left over from making and installing the cabinets.

(do I sound a little unhappy about the workmanship of the trailer?)

I would expect the wires for the speakers in the front to be simular in your trailer to mine and that would be the easiest way to access them.
