Awesome tutorial. Im going to attempt most of it this weekend. Question mSall150: How important do you think it is to cover the hole in the door? I just dont want to have to undo it if something happend to a window motor or something.
Yes, I'm actually trying to get this year long stero install finished. Ive got everything purchased finally. Now to get it all in. Stupid cold, wet weather.

But try it without sealing them first if you want. If you have solid enough midbass, then leave it. If you desire more, seal it!

lol Well after reading this entire thread from start to finish, it's a little disappointing to see you sell it and move on. But I understand the frustrations completely.
Where in North LA are you from?
I actually have the same avic in my F-150 and also have the 4100 in my Explorer. I love the 4100 and speed and lack of startup time much better than the avic. The only thing I like on this avic is the bluetooth is integrated. I never bothered buying the module for my explorer. If I hadn't bought the truck with the avic, I definately would have gotten another 4100.
And, to answer your question about the sub tuning earlier, the subs are tuned based on the enclosure. The amount of port volume you have (the length of the 2 pvc pipes he used basically) compared to the internal volume of the speaker box after you account for the subwoofers displacement will determine what frequency the subs will be tuned to. Usually around 30-35 hz.

I traded in my truck and got a 08 2wd Avalanche. I know I will be shunned from the site since I crossed to the darkside. But I just really like how it drives.
I am in Haynesville.
I had everything installed on my ford except the custom A pillars for the 4' midrange and tweeters for the 3 ways i had (never got built). I was really pleased with the system, but not with the ride of the lifted truck.
