It came "as is" from JL Audio. Here is a link for more details. They run about $800, but the fit is perfect and you get a little more storage room because it is behind the strut bar versus ebay boxes.

Tires feel good so far, but my alignment is completely screwed up right now, so I haven't had time to push it yet. I am getting it done today. I'm also probably going to get some sway bars.

Very nice! Love everything, especially the wheels. How'd you hardwire your 8500? I don't want to get flamed and I'm not asking for a full run down. I just mean did you find a guide on the forum, or did you just know how to do it? I want to hardwire mine because it's a pain to stretch that damn cord to wherever I stretch it. I'm thinking about hardwiring mine but in the back, at the top of the window in the hatch. You think it's possible? Nice car though again!

No how to necessary. It's two wires. Run it across the headliner and down the a-pilar to the fuse box. I got nutty with my custom mute and led display in the center console, which was a bit more advanced, but it is an overall novice job.

Someone else asked me about the wear. It is just the picture. The interior is pretty much immaculate.

The crumbs have been cleaned up (new picture posted). I am replacing that piece anyhow because I scratched it up while dremmeling.

Default Nice!!

That is a nice ride. Congratulations. I just recently purchased mine also. I really like those wheels and I am thinking of buying some as well. I have one question. Are your rims 18's or are your tires 19's? You may need to check your signature description. Just a heads up. Enjoy.

Awesome. I figured it wasn't a hard wiring job, I was mainly asking about the install of the mute button, . That's pretty sweet! Thanks!

Good call. They are both 19"s.

Fletch- the **** is for the JL Audio bass EQ. It controls the subwoofer level.

The mute button comes with the hardwire kit. You just need to break the plastic housing open. It wasn't too hard, but it is somewhat ghetto underneath. Lots of crimping, zip ties, and superglue.

That ride height looks perfect on the 19's.
