be like me, run rockford fosgate 5.25" splits in the front. pioneer bullets 6" in the rear roof. 6x9s on a parcel shelf. all amped. and also 2 12" pioneers in the boot running 500rms each. does me good for over 120+ DB and i have DD (Digital Designs) on the way 1 x 12" will hit over 140db. tuned well over 150. i like my system.

almost there with mounting the head unit. i need to pull it out again and make some bigger holes in the bracket because the way it it now, it sits too much inside the dash and i can't mount the trim ring :(
