Haha I feel like I'm going to be taking my car everywhere once it's done, the quality of all of the components is unreal! Pics updated!

All my pleasure bud.

How much $ is the new Kenwood? Extensive processing, full T/A, multi channel EQ? In the past 10 days, 2 double dins and an 880prs have blew their preamp outs in my SUV. We found the problem after the 3rd one took a ****

You can view IATs, any other engine parameters, and configure them how you want it. You can also read codes and all that jazz. I literally cannot wait to get mine!

fuark Andy, lets see the finished product!

And if you figure out how to dye your headliner in Dallas for less than an arm and a leg, I wanna be job #2 for whomever does it right.

Not sure if you know Adam T [autoscope and the like] but he had a sick interior on his Jeep SRT8 and I'm pretty sure he's got full alcantara on his C6Z too. I can call him up if you are interested in who he used in Dallas.

Haha I'm ready to see it too man, trust me!

I think Taylor is gonna get it done up at DP which will be cool! I'll definitely let you know the cost man! Shouldn't be too hard, but will look awesome!

Full list IIRC is $2k + the OBDII BT piece. Very similar in those flexible terms as the 9140/9960 - a fair amount, but not full active capable.

Wow, what was the problem ? Seems like you leaped right past the Pico fuse issues and made more ! lol

Update - Heading over to the shop to pick it up in about an hour, the installer just gave me some updates, just a few little things to be done and then it's ready!

Subs just need the cover on the baffle to hide the front metal part and the heads of the bolts



The cover is already on but here is the view of the subs before the cover. We are using the stock rear deck from the car so from inside you won't even be able to tell there are subs there. I like having the car look OEM from inside. It will even retain the folding headrests



The amp rack being test fit in the spare tire well, with the passive crossovers up behind them.



The trunk floor how it looks with the carpet in and the plexiglass window to see the amps

Just trying to help others out Andrew lol.

Car is coming together nicely. I like the amp rack. If I was using my 4100's that is where they would have went. But my B8's don't fit length ways.
