Looks like I have to hide or cover my nice infinidy sub.

Door: Kicker SS65.2 components

Kick panel: Kicker SS56.2 components

Rear: Kicker SS65.2 components

Rear deck: Removed!

All components powered from a kicker kx350.4 amp (order a kicker kx650.4 for replacement)

Subs: Kicker 15" L7s

Subs powered by a kicker kx2500.1

4alterstart 275 amp alternator, 14.7V

2 Optima yellow tops

Phoenix Gold Line Driver, if I ever find the time to install it.

I bought mine from partsexpress.com. It comes in black or chrome. I can't lock one of the t-tops down all the way because of the grille, but other than that, it works fine.

The computer cost me about $850 in parts. Jut froogle for the lowest price mini-itx motherboard, DC-DC powerupply, laptop HD, memory, and LCD. Buing good quality part should get you in under $1,000. If you are intereted, I suggest taking a look over at MP3car.com's forums.

Ok heres my current system:
Panasonic CQ-9701U HU (5-volt preamp outs)
CDT silk dome tweeter w/CDT crossover network
CDT CF-6 6.5" midbass doors
CDT CL-6 6.5" midbass sail panels
JL Audio 10W3V2 D4 in a Vantage Stealth Enclosure
JL Audio 10W3V2 D4 in a Subthump passenger side Stealth Enclosure
Rockford Fosgate Power Series 600.5 running entire system
Puts out 132.2db although I feel another amp might be warranted for better bass. Any constructive ideas are welcome. How well would this do in competition. Local car audio show coming up in August and thought about entering for fun. Classes are broken into wattage...I would qualify for the 600-700 watt class.

Here's a layout of the first version of my system, and how much all the parts cost. You'll have to do some froogling or searching on Pricewatch.com to get the best prices. PM me if you have any more questtions.

I think this post could possably be created be the folks who steal systems.

you guys should protect these bad *** sys. like where they are located meaning city & images of car.

I've had stuff ripped off just my opinion.

Thanks Snootch for link of grille think I'll get the silver one I also think my T-top holder will still work because my box isn't flush with the plastic panel (it sit back about 1"

I have NOT (1), but (2) security systems, so it won't be easy........plus the rear window is max tint, and you can't even see the system. Except for the HU, everything else looks stock (speaker grills). Ya gotta feel lucky NOT to secure your equipment IMO.

Link to horrible pictures below! Bought my very first ever Digital Camera today and the pictures are poor.. TA has been in storage for months. I can tell by the dirty Sub and seats! Just wanted to try the camera..

I will clean her up and take more exciting pictures this weekend...In a nicer location!

Hell I hope where I placed the pictures works at Snapfish? What a digital newbie I am..

Here it goes..?????

It seems you need a snapfish account to view albums. If you need to host pictures, i'd use Photobucket or Imagestation instead.
