Welp, here are a couple pics. I think Im going to talk to a buddy of mine and see if he can do some bondo work on it and do a couple other things to get it nice and pretty...OR if I find cloth that would match the seats I would do that. I change my mind to much. Anywho, this is how it sits right now...



Here is a bracket for the drivers side of the box. The flat peice on the far left bolts to part of the center console, and the squarish piece to the right sits on the floor at the back of the cab. The rest is a piece of angle iron that the bottom edge of the box sits on.

Havent figured much out for the passengers side. At the moment it just sits on a block

Bartak awesome job so far on the install. As for the noise problem problem your having have you tried a different ACC and see if that helps? I'm an installer at Circuit City and I have had my share of noise problems,especially with the Eclpise HUs. Just an idea for you. Good job again.

Brandon...yes I have tried a different acc wire. I rewired the whole headunit, and after a little more messing around I have reduced the noise a little more. Granted, it has less noise then a LOT of setups I listen to, but any noise is to much for me, Im to dang picky.

Noisy HU's or not, they are built good and I love this d@mn HU. Does about everything I need, without all that blingy extra cr@p every 17 year old kid wants. Plain and simple and made for SQ.
Ive been trying to get ahold of a Balanced Line Adapter which should help even more Im hoping...just cant find any around.

I really dont think it is the HU though...I had ZERO noise problems with this HU in my last truck...
