Let me know what you guys think. The subs are Boston G2's 10". All speakers are Boston. The Amp's are Kenwood's 1200W KAC-X10D and 800W KAC-X40.

So, does anyone like the install ?

looks good, very very heavy for our already heavy cars...but nice

It did add some weight, but not really that much. I had the spare tire taken out and the side plastic panel's were replaced with masonite covered in leather.

after the install, did your outside temp gauge start reading off? I have an Alpine touchscreen unit and my ouside temp gauge is reading about 20 degrees high and just increases with the engine temp. I took the car to the dealership and they couldn't find anything wrong with the sensor.

its a nice set-up but i would have done a few things to properly hide the wires and use the space in the trunk alot more wisely
