Thanks for the comments guys.

I love these subs, they sound amazing.

The lcd is going to go onto the trunk lid. It will follow the same pattern as the sub enclosure. With the LCD in the middle and 1 speaker on each side.

Thanks man. That is the only draw back, but I never use my trunk. Plus, it gets me out of grocery shopping.
