Hey guys, I have been building and installing car audio for quite some time now. I have a real close friend and neighbor that is probably one of the most talented fabricators when it comes to fiberglass and custom installs. We together built this system with him doing most of the glassing. We still need to build an amp rack with an armrest with door lock/unlock and power window switches. O too many times have you seen the mini trucks with 8 TV's slapped in crooked everywhere and walmart speakers, just plain tacky "custom" set ups. Some people like it but my stereo was built to be one of the best sound QUALITY stereos possible.

Breakdown of equipment:

3 sets of 6.5" FOCAL K2 POWERS ( set in each doorpanel )
FOCALS powered by DIAMOND D7056 6 channel

specs of amp can be found here, when this amp came out it was 900$ -$1000

4 8" diamond audio cm3 in center console for the mid bass
powered by diamond audio d3 400.1

2 12" diamond audio d9 subwoofers in sealed fiberglass enclousers built for this specific sub.
powered by diamond audio d7402

specs of amp can be found here, when this amp came out it was about $1000

Pioneer avic n5 flip out touchscreen 7" navigation and bluetooth..yadayadayada

Also have 2 optima "red" tops that will be located in the bed of the truck next to the 15lb. n2o bottle although hopefully i will have a vortech from rtmods.com in the next month. As well as SRT8 seats out of a 300C.

There is well over 5 grand worth of work with just fabricating and work so far let alone the finished product. I didnt pay that but then again it has taken over a year to get this far.

This is my photobucket, I will be posting more pics tomorrow on my page with the cab (unfinished) and the doorpanels in the car.
I think the interior will look great once i send my spare bezel to rob rohe to do some gauges for me.
