OK, I started a new thread, the other one was getting old.
Heres my system to date, still need to wire the 4 channel amp & sub amp up.
Alpine 9860 H/U with custom painted surround, more billet on order:

Front & rear Doors done in FatMat & Infinity Components & custom painted door panel:

Video in both visors:

MTX Sub enclosure with 2 10's & MTX amp, Alpine 4 channel amp for the 4 door Components:

I'll get final pic of the Amp once everything is wired.

I like the screens in the visors. I've been wanting to do that for a while now.

LOL so much for the idea of having a beater truck. I foresee a full custom inside of two years. Rock on brother.

Thanks guys, no full custom here Lynn, actually except for the Extang tonneau which is suppose to be here early next week I'm done with the outside. I do have some more billet to add to the interior & under the hood but not much & then I'm done.....except maybe for the SC & headers.
Ran all the power wires, ground wires & remotes to the amps. Tomorrow is my day off & I'm hoping to get all the rest of the wiring run up to the head unit & fire her up, OK, fire may not be a good word for it...

Had some extra time today & built the wiring harness from the H/U to the Amps. Will still need to run the RCA's once the rest is hooked up.

Finished it up today. Sounds great but...if you want mind blowing, ear crushing bass the MTX enclosure I bought isn't for you. It hits nice & crisp & fairly hard, more than I need for my 70's songs & more than enough for movies.

As always, Rick, a beautiful job. Particularly good job on those visor monitors, I've seen some real hack jobs on that, and you pulled it off quite nicely.
