To a certain extent, yes you are correct... But with the amount of power I need to run all the speakers I have at their optimum level, there is no single amp out there that could do everything in my system.. I could have gotten 1 bigger amp to run the subs, but I got such a steal on these two that it made more sense for me to go this way...

That ^^
And why too much red ?

personally i wouldn't have done the whole front dash & middle console except **** and boot.

The seat's look awesome but to be honest i'm not a fan of the color it's too bright or it may seem in the picture.

overall i think you could have saved a lot of $$, love what you did for the stereo, too red & bright.

In the firebird/trans am, if the car is equipped with t tops they have the ability to be removed. Shocking I know. When owner of said vehicle removes his tops, there is 2 individual slots in the hatch area for them to be placed while driving around. This is so when u park somewhere other than at home you can have the option to put them back on for security or weather related reasons. This owner in particular has completely taken the ability away to enjoy this luxury by installing sub woofers in his t top holding area. So unless he just leaves them in his garage when he goes somewhere then Idk howhe can enjoy having the tops off. And judging by the amount of money he invested in his interior, I would assume the last thing he wants is to leave his tops off in a public place and either have his system stolen or a nice fat bird **** in his car lol

Ok, you kept saying "the owner" and "he" in your above post... This is my car by the way.. So you can talk directly to me..

Now that I know what your comment was referring to, let me show you this...





This is a photo of directly behind my rear seat once folded down.. New slots that was built into the sub box... I can carry the T-tops just like before... Just in a different spot... Surprise, surprise, surprise......

Ha, very nice idea and setup you got for your T-tops. How sturdy does it hold though? Love your seats man. Camaro King isn't too far from me so at least I know where to go if I'm ever in need of some clean seats.

Get her washed and go drive!
