Exclamation Show off your work

Okay guys, it's been a while since we've done something like this. If you have any work that you've done (or paid someone to do; give credit where it's due), and have pics, post em up!

I'll take a couple shots later this weekend of my new (er) setup... which is the same as i posted last time but with kove's instead of kenwood subs.

Go nuts

The red one is the valet switch for my alarm, the on/off switch is for the kill on the remote start.

^^ Picture of the hatch area, all work done by the guys at Town Sound in York, PA.



^^ picture of the custom battery box & cover. I'm using a Deka deep cycle battery.



^^ here's a picture from car sound & performance magazine that shows my kick panels w/ Focal speakers, and my slide out eq drawer. I'm using the Phoenix Gold dual 30 band EQ.


Also, not show in the pictures, I have a cover that goes over the subs and amps so that I can still use the hatch of my car as it was originally intended.

I think maybe the only thing that I changed since then was the headunit. I went from the pioneer deh-p7200 to the dvh-p7000. The new headunit has a higher voltage rca out 24 bit d/a and plays DVD. However, I still don't have a monitor in the car yet. The wife is against it, and apparently so is my wallet. I had some issues with water leaking into my tub, not sure how, but it did and the subs crapped because of it, and that took the amp with it. That all happened last winter. I have since gotten everything back in working order. I think once my wife gets a new car, I'll drive her taurus wagon and really start working on the interior of the focus. At least thats the plan for now.

All I need now, is a cover (and fan) for my amp, and some components in kicks up front.

It is an IDMAX 12 v3. It is hands down the best sounding sub I have ever heard. I wouldn't replace it with ANYTHING. As for how it sounds, I couldn't possibly describe it as well as Tom Nousaine... http://www.m-emag.com/article.asp?section_id=13&article_id=302&p age_number=1&preview=
