Default Preinstall pics, more to follow

Just figgure I post some pics of my install. Attached is a pic of my empty trunk. The blue tape is the outline of the box. It will be sealed with 3 10JLw6v2.

Swooping from left to right will be an amp rack. It's going to be wrapped in black vinyl and "hoovering" a few inches over the box meeting in the center under the brace. On it will be 3 Xtant 3.1 for the subs and 2 Xtant 1.1 for my left and right channels.

I have no idea how to post pics on a forum, if someone could help me out it would be much appreciated. Will post more pics as the work progresses.

Enjoy!

Only the sub box and amp rack has been completed. Still gotta put in some cosmetic items (neon, reflective plexi etc..) As far as the rest of the components, it's all in my sig. Changes quite often but it's current as of the moment.

Working on the center dash right now. Will be posting more pics.

Is the blue tape the outer deminsions of three seperate enclosures? Did you fabricate the baffle for the subs or was that a prefab from JL?

It's three seperate enclosures. Sealed, ~.6cu. ft per sub. I didn't do any of the building. I don't have that kind of patience. lol
All work has been done by a local stereo shop. If anyone in Hawaii needs a stereo, PM me.

Electrical system is stock. So far so good, haven't seen any drawbacks yet. I might upgrade the battery and maybe put some caps, but that'll be later down the line. Mainly for show if I don't see any lack of performance.

Just finished the center dash. I'll be posting more pics later...

Looks sweet, where did you mount the Xbox???? Question for you, I have modded my Xbox too and mine is in the process of being installed. I wanted to copy all of my DVD's to the Xbox hard drive. I have the SmartX chip with the EvoX dashboard. Have you copied your DVD's to your Xbox? You would think there would be an application just like the one to copy the games. If you have any info, please let me know.

Btw, I have played around with XBMC & XBMP, I can browse to the DVD folder and actually have associated some icons with the thumbnail with the Movie, unfortunately there is not a easy way to play the movie straight from the Hard drive.

Really nice solution for the center channel speaker! Do you have a picture that is a little further back or one taken from the drivers door side showing more of the dash? Thanks.
