These pictures are dated 4-8.
This is the rear view of the amp rack with both side panels. They are not
fastened down yet. But you get a better idea of what it will look like.
This is a view from the driver's seat at the amp rack. The 2 Alpine 540's are sitting here. Working on the trim around them now. The wood trim will be painted toreador red, like the truck.
1 fine HotDog. I wonder how I got my nic names? HotDogs & Dogsworld. That is NOT me in the pic, LOL.

Love the setup. My only real nitpick would be all that space lost without something outrageously awesome in the back of that truck. I'm talking a screen or two, or throwing a PS2 in the back. Just seems they were a little too soft on using the space up like that (I have a hard enough time not wanting to pull my stupid box out when I drive to the beach, gets crowded since I drive people too, oh and yeah, it's a sport 
).
Love the side work though, you get what you pay for, top notch work.

I can't see putting a screen in the back that I cannot see while driving. If I put a screen or 2 in it, it will be so who ever is in the back seat can see it. A playstation is in the works, but not confirmed yet. I just like my music too much for the kids to play games while on a road trip. That is why I bought them those hand held games they can connect togeather and play each other and leave old dad, or Grandpa in July, alone.draft said:Love the setup.

why not do a dual zone system?
your hu may already be dual zone
for example in my truck i can play one signal on my rear components (the ones that face out the back of the truck on the rear of my box) and a different one on the front speakers

I have thought of a hundred different things to do already to the system. Right now, I just want to get this done and then I will move on. LOL, I am sure some of you can understand that.

Thanks, I know allot of you are behind me 100% and watching carefully. Here is a small list of things in my garage waiting to be installed but can't yet. ;-(
Clear Corners, Billet grille, top & bottom, EE X-Spec Lowering Kit, 4 Chrome CobraR's w/Pirelli tires, FlowMaster CatBack Exhaust from EE, (the last one), Rear Spoiler, Mac Intake, Apten Flasher, 4 EE Rotors w/Pads, New plugs and wires, Pair of Eddie Bauer Buckets for the rear, complete "perfect shine" kit, LOL that's work with clay bar, EE X-Spec airdam, PIAA Pro90's but need brackets, hood scoop painted and ready, and 4 door panels just in case LOL.. That's allot of money just sitting in the garage. I am sure I have other things that I forgot to mention since there is soooo much. Also have this group buy going with www.Pheonix-Imaging.com that I am just dying to get some parts done like the 4 door handles & switches, console and radio bezel for sure. The only thing that I can't decide if I am going to be doing is the steering wheel, I am kind of iffy on that.

Great news, my rack went off to the paint shop today. No pic udates this week though. Money is getting tight and I cannot rent a car to go over there just to take some pictures. I bought some new door panels to replace the ones that I guess are messed up, no one knows what to do with them now. Didn't plan on that. But all and all, it should be ready soon, hopefully. Everything is stripped out on the interior adn the whole truck is dyno-matted.
