I like the trunk subwoofer under the carpet, but I have to agree that the radio in front looks out of place . If your friend likes it thats all that matters

I like the trunk install, not to sure about the dash though. Nice choice of components. The problem is that the dash no longer flows and does not look uniform anymore. But if it makes him happy then so be it. BTW I'm sure his system sounds awsome though.

The setup he's got going in the trunk looks great, I agree with the previous replies though on the whole dash thing, it just doesn't look right..

Nice clean job in the trunk. So did you dynomat the trunk lid too? It is pretty hard to get 100% rattle out. Mine is 85% rattle free when turned up.

pretty much got the same opinion as everyone else;
trunk setup is sick, but the head units in the dash look out of place.
better hope he dun get a flat.

Until someone makes aftermarket trim pieces, without those cut outs, anything other than the stock deck is going to look out of place.

i like the idea of keeping everything hidden, not really diggin the double DIN in the dash thought. like the trunk install, although the carpet could look a little more flush.

Would have been better to install a double din setup in place of the two unit.

Love the stock look of the trunk setup.
