That does help.

I looked at more stereos today and now I think I would go with a single DIN height. The best performing units seem to be single DIN. (I guess because they are the most common).

Althought Sony does make some cool double din units.

Now what would be REALLY cool is if the second din space could be a little better than a cubby. Like if there was a kit to turn a 1DIN opening in to a cubby with a door, sort of like the NAV spot.

I wonder if there is such a thing?

Well I said that the install would be completed today, but unfortunately it had to be pushed back till Friday because the second sub bracket hasen't arrived yet. I have my fingers crossed and will post pt 2 when its completed.

THose look like JL IB's ? How do they sound ? I am curious b/c I never heard a tight sound freeair sub. JL makes great stuff, so maybe they have a winner here, but I always prefered enclosed subs.

My main question is this...how do you like your JL Evolustion 650CSI's ? I just put mine in, but still need to finish my sub enclosure up. What tweeter and mid settings did you use ? I think the stock location restricts the tweeterh output a little, and the Z doors have over 1/3 of the grill not perforated, which drowns out alot of midrange and midbass...I am curious if you did anything about this ??

The subs have a good tight sound. Its just a little boomy with heavy bass lines in some of the dance music I listen to. That's only at high volume. I think that the setup I used helped a bit since two subs are sharing the stock location which was heavily dynomatted. I really like the sound of the Evolution speakers. My headunit it setup to cross the base over at 80 and the treble at 125. The JL's are fine with me behind the factory door grills. I suppose you could get a bit more from them if you made a custom grill or pod for them. Let me know what you final system is like!!
