Stealthbox recovered with leather (pictures)
We just finished recovering the JL stealthbox with leather with steel gray leather, almost all of the car has been redone with leather.

Any idea why the JL stealth box will not fit in a vert, as noted on their own webite?

While you might be able to make it fit (I've not tried) in the convertible's trunk area, it would be separated from the cabin. In the coupe the hatch area is not separated from the cabin.

Very nice. I'd like to see the rest of the car ("redone with leather"). Do you have pics you can send to me or post?

Without question the leather upgrades look GREAT! Could you please comment on the sound system...
Did you change other OEM parts of sound system or just stealth box?
What amplification are you using to power sub...level controller used?
Did it overpower stock spkrs if you didn't change out?
I am strongly considering using JL's stealth box since they have alwasy offered premiere products, but I would really like to have some input from forum members who have already tried/changed.
I have long since quit the car audio competition circuit but still require some level of audio fidelity in my cars. As well documented, the Vette systems are horrific...I thought I could stand especially since putting on my Borla system but it's just intolerable to listen anymore. My Vette isn't a daily driver and I want to keep as stock as possible since I trade them every 3 to 4 yrs so want best overall improvement with least invasive approach and cost.
Thanks!

So, how does it sound?
Can we get a picture of it with the roof in the hatch? There was some discussion here the other day that there was no way the Stealthbox didn't interfere with top storage.
