Nice job. Love how they still left room in your trunk. My setup uses up most of my trunk. Would love to hear how it sounds.

Nice looking install...I don't know if you saw my post earlier about my quote from Tweeter Stereo w/ONE 10" JL W3 V3 Sub and a JL 200W Amp for $900 with a custom stealth box. NOW..the installer said that to get best bass sound you MUST face SUB back to bounce waves up. He said you need 16feet for best bass. How does it sound in YOUR vehicle with them facing each other...it seems like that might be an issue? Looks awesome though and I LOVE the space savings...I would love to do an install like that.

Did you do it yourself? He said there are NO Stealth boxes on the market for a 3gTL? let us know...and where did you buy the amps/subs? how much did u pay? thanks!!!

Nice setup. I like how it all blends in together.

Ethernaut05: It is best for the sub to face the back, that way the waves bounce back and its amplified even more. It can be angled pointed back. Just dont have the sub facing the back of the rear seat, or up. Thats the main thing really

Any chance you could post or send me the plans/pattern on how the amp rack was built. I'd prefer to use your design verse hanging the amp from the rear deck?

Nice setup man How bad is the rattling from the bass when standing outside the car? Or even the inside of the car for that matter? Did you use any Dynamat or any another vibration dampening material?

How much was the labor? That's about what I have into mine (I have a little more but close) but it includes tons of sound deadening and a processor too.
