Styxnpicks install progress thread

Aight guys, I'm almost ready to install my system, if you havnt been here a while or don't know, I'm lazy and broke and have been missing a system pretty much since day one, so far the system as is in the truck is as follows:

Kenwood DDX-7015
200 sq ft butyl sound deadener + 5 cans of expaning foam
stock 5x7's up front, nothing in the rear

and now I'm getting ready to install this:





not pictured and on hand:

2 full sheets of 3/4" mdf
1/2 sheet 1/4" hardboard
full sheet 1/16" inch smoke acrylic
49x6.5" 3/4" acrylic
2 optima yellow tops
RCA's
Wire 1/0, 4, 8, and 10ga
carpet & vinyl


still need to order:

binding posts
component set


stay tuned for more progress

mostly parts express which is so close to my house they showed up overnight, the neg batt terminals distro block and dual ground blocks came from cardomain since they had a slightly better price.

the finish quality isnt quite as high. the casting is a little rough around the edges, its solid tho, I needed one more 1/0 ring terminal and I didn't want to pay for one more streetwires pair since you wouldn't see it anyway.
