Looks nice! Why did you elevate the sub enclosure?

to be able to raise the floor to be flush with the top of the amps

Yep, you hit the nail on the head. LOL I have not forgot about you and the master jig sets. I am going to have to break down and start buying them myself.

How much does an install like this cost? Not counting equipment.

Labor to install the second battery, front components, rear speakers, both amps, integrate into the factory system, drop the front bumper and install HID's on the low/high beams and fogs lights, mold the DDC into the dash, fab adapters for the front doors, box and amp rack was a little over $1,400.

It is really cool to see the photos taken frequently in the build. How will the amps do for cooling? I'm assuming there will be plexiglass or something over them. Will the customer be able to use the remaining space for cargo without worrying about that?
