Thanks for the pic.

Custom install from scratch with side access panels to a fire extinguisher and the jack on the other side. The door panels were made to match. Usb, Bluetooth, fm, sd card slot and 1/8 head phone jack.

Metaldoc...this looks great! One of the best behind the seat setups I've seen. If you have the pics of the build or dimensions to share I would greatly appreciate it.

I wish I took dimensions but didn't, it's two 8" subs and two 6.5" full range. I'ce since added two 4.5" in the dash using the original speaker to mount them.

That is very helpful, thank you.

Post up a few pics of what I ended up building. Everything still need upholstery work, but I am very happy with the quality of the sound and the function of the box etc. Hopefully, it gives someone else some ideas for their own.

Nice stuff guys. When/IF my 85 gets out of paint jail, (3+yrs so far), it will get a nice minor setup, but lets hear about some alarm setups and pics too.

I know there has to be some with all this great equipment that everyone has installed!? Mine will need one because I had a nice stereo stolen yrs ago from my worktruck and this '85 will be my last worktruck including toolboxes/tools/parts/electronics to guard - at home and on the job.

Thinking about a Custom Autosound in-dash (to look stock & not tempting), 4" in the new dash, 6x9 corners, powered sub under the seat. Alarm with power door lock feature, and auto start - if I use fuel injection.
