The car looks great! I love the way the flush mounted the decks. Do you have any pics of your center channel speaker? Anyhow, I'm impressed to say the least... Can't wait to see the finished product

Why do you need pIII with mouse, keyboard and a screen?
Why would you want to make so many mods?
You can buy a second tl-s for that money

why do you need cd changer if you have dvd changer?

the center piece?
the center channel is in a cistom cut hole in the TL-S dash...then it's trimmed and the trim was painted to match the dash colour...

the PIII is so I have full control over the F1 system at all times...it also makes a nifty MP3 player and it connects to my alarm and there are a few online notification options...

CD and DVD changer together is like having a 12 disc changer...

why not do these mods to the TL-S? I have other cars and I have wanted to do these things to a car for years...now I finally can.

One of the best out there for SQ/SPL. NOLACLS is getting ready to install one. 4Pumpincl also has them, and he loves them. Ive read a lot of review, and they are a great sub.

ID MAX subs are AMAZING! Here's an old pic of mine with chromed baskets. Fortunately, my girlfriend's brother is a Image Dynamics distributor so I get a nice hookup. If anyone needs a set let me know. I get great prices.

Hey Astro your project is looking pretty sweet. One question from me is where did you get the plate that plate that the Headunits have been installed in? Looks like an exact match to the factory flat black finish.
