Console/System Progress :)


That's the console in, it has room for cupholders up front which I just have not put in yet.

The subs in box, amp is mounted in between yet as I am getting the tuning right first.

But no doubt its coming along

Re: Console/System Progress :)

why not mount deck in factory spot and put some kick panels with the speakers in them? You'd hear the speakers better in the kick panel with them facing at an upwards angle. also put a 4x10 under dash in factory center help out a lot im running the kenwood one.

Okay according to http://www.bcae1.com/spboxnew2.htm I have .633 volume per side.

And I put it in the console because I wanted to build a console to put some cupholders in and liked the thought of the CD player there as well as the fact that the previous owner hacked the dash all up. And the factory 4X10 spot is gone due to a giant square hacked out of the metal for some unknown reason. I did contemplate adding a second set in the dash but honestly it sounds okay as it is.
