So there I was, got up this morning and decided my stereo was too quiet.



I no longer feel that way. And yes, I know, the carpet is dirty, I fixed that after I took the pictures. So what do you think?

 

I looks awsome, but how does it sound. I imagine great ! Nice job . About how much was it for all that (my stock is too quiet too).

 

Thanks. It sounds great. I have no idea how much it all costs, but here's a breakdown of what it consists of.
Kenwood Excelon Head Unit. (I paid just over $500)
Rockford Fosgate HE2 Subs (I paid just over $140 each)
Rockford Fosgate 801s Amp (I paid just over $400)
Rockford Fosgate 301s Amp (I paid just over $200)
Custom Built Enclosure ($80 in supplies and $120 to have it covered)
Sirius Satellite Receiver for Kenwood Unit ($60 from Ebay)
Lots of RCA's, wiring, and misc. parts. (Around $200, more expensive than you might think)
Installation (About 4 hours for everything, I did it myself)
Clifford G5 Alarm (just under $500)
Some of these items I have had for a year or two and have never been motivated enough to install them, so prices may be considerably cheaper now.

 

Looks good, don't feel bad all my new stereo stuff has been in my room since last spring, i guess i'm going to install it this winter when i park it. How much leg room did you loose because of the speaker box?

 

Very Nice!

Do the seats still go all the way back?

 

Def lose the jack storage, but on top of that be careful because rockfords are well known for overheating.

Also, why not put the sirius under the other seat instead of out in the open, would def clean up the install.

 

4 hours?? Damn your quick...
Did you replace the door speakers also?

JOn

 

So that's what you ment by 'in pieces' right on, looks like you visited our sister store for some pieces For a second there I thought I'd have to go get a t2 10. 4 hours is about right if you didn't have to build the box once you drill the hole in the pass side firewall.

 

I didn't loose any leg room at all. But someone with longer legs than myself probably would have.
I ditched the jack along time ago when I got rid of the spare tire, etc...Thanks for the idea of putting the sirius under the other seat. Provided there is enough cable to do it, I will make that change this weekend.
Did all four 5X8s as well. I may not be able to disassemble the engine yet, but when it comes to stereo equipment, i'm pretty quick at installs.
I built the box while I was in Texas about 6 months ago. Had an upholstery shop cover it for me to keep it looking good. The only drilling I did was mounting the box and the amps to the floor of the truck. Other than that I ran the power wire through the firewall using pre-existing holes. I may redo everything again when I relocate the battery and IC reservoir to the bed. As permanent as any of it looks, it all comes out in less than 30 minutes.
Thanks for the comments.
