What are you like.....Britney!! LOL
are you after seeing the wiring underneath etc?

resize?? Its down to putting my images on photobucket...

I may fit a couple of cold cathodes to illuminate the amps.... but then again it may be Max Power looking then...

lloking good mate.

quick q for you, you know the orignal oem power cabling goin to the +ive battery post, did all that fit into the 8awg termail on the what looks like a stinger batter teminal? i've ran 4awg through to the engine bay, but havent extended it to the battery yet (it just goes into the fuse holder at one end). the only reason is mim not sure if the oem cabling will fit into the battery terminal, or whether im better off goin for a ring terminal...

i hope this makes enough sense???

Where did you get the sub box from?
I like the install as I need the boot space. may do it myself one day but with the amp on the box.
is there a reason for running the fronts off a amp and not the HU?
What will you do if you had a flat?

Ray Li, you would be amazed at the difference an amplifier can make to a set of components.

components tend to have a power ahndling of 75w rms and upwards. a stock headunit at most will chuck out 30w rms, often less.

to get the most out of a set of components, its best to run at least 50w rms through them. and with hi volt pre outs, and strongly shielded rcas, the music reproduction is just transformed.
