Default I'm Getting closer Lot's of PIC.

It's ben a while since my last posting but I'm back in the garage at full speed.... My wife would not let me have the car till it was in storage... I have a few PIC. for you all.

Front half dynamat is done....

Doors are done with the D-9's in and sound deadner behind them allong with dynamat.

Alpine IVA-D310 is in and running it's mounted with the vrumm vrumm plates and has the DVD buy pass in it...

Amp rack is in final stages of fit up...

Rack being fitted to car....checking to make sure top still clears everything...

It'was a bear to get the 3.75 cubic foot of air for these sub's and still put that top in the back....

But I got it.....
I'll keep you guy's posted

Damn man looks really cool. I like the sub box design a lot. Wish I did not have to haul around my clubs in the back so I could do more with the subs. Keep up the good work.

Also please let me know how you like the d9's. My audio guy is trying to talk me in to getting those 2 ways vs the 3 way Dynaudio 340's I want to get.

Looks good. Nice job on the big 3. Also, if you want to watch DVDs while the car is in motion, you can pick up a PAC TR7

Looks great and good luck with the visors, I tore mine apart and started from scratch to make them look like they came that way from GM. The only thing I used was the stock arm and built everything else from scratch but kept the stock size, shape, and look. Check them out a www.cardomain.com/id/cstylez if you wish to. I love what you did for a box and that will be my next project.

Yes that is a 15 inch widescreen in the trunk. The rearview monitor is an alpine 6.5" for video, that is also hooked to a rearview camera for driving. I might contact you about that sub box.
