2014 Camry build (my new daily commuter car)

So on to running the speaker, RCA and reference wires back. Went up and over the glove box with everything from the center console. Grabbed the dash dual 16's and the door dual 14's on the way down and along the sills with the factory wiring. Plenty of before and after picks below.

Got the glove box out

The RCA's coming form the sub out and the RCA's going to the rear, these are in the center console area ready for my PAC LC1 bassknob.

Few of the wires being ran back

Mount I made up for the ANL

ANL installed

Battery ground straight to the frame its hard to see in the pic, but it was ground with a wire brush on a drill.

Ran the 1/0 from the battery to the ANL

Here was the final battery install pic with everything done.

Next running the 1/0 form the ANL to the trunk.

Do you really need a 6/5/3/tweet?

Sounds like it will be a little "busy" on the front stage.

I would do a 6x9 midbass in the door. And do the 5 and tweet in the kicks. But maybe thats just me.

I've already got the gear, so I'm gonna go with it. Not doing anything I can't change later if I don't like how it sounds. I get your point though.

Did some work on the amp rack today, this is the bottom amp rack there will be one above it with 2 more amps.

Some mocking up with cardboard

Picked up some 1/2" Brich plywood, had them cut two 30" sections for me so I don't have mess with a full sheet. Left me with 2 30" and about a 40"

Rough cut out my cardboard copy

I put it in and put a small amount of strip caulk on the spare tire nut. Then pushed it down to get some transfer. Drilled a hole in the middle so I can put a screw through to it and hold the piece in place.

Laid everything down on and traced it all out, marking mounting holes for nut inserts.

All marked up and the battery hole cut out.

All the insert nuts in and ready to carpet.

So I missed a couple pics of the carpeting, but here it is carpeted and all components mounted. Not to shabby

Got the rears in today, also got the top amp rack built. Here are some pics

Got the rear all apart

All deadened

Speakers in, there mounted in foam baffles. The foam baffles have some deadener in them.

Mocked up the top layer of the amp rack. Carpeting it.

All finished, terminal block for speaker wires, push/pull fan setup for the lower amp rack.

In the car

Interesting to see a 5 ch amp in a mixed amp install. Typically 5 ch amps run an entire system, eliminating the need to run more amps. I've ran a few 5 ch amps in the past.

Yeah I had a JL XD700/5 in my last commuter, gonna go a little bigger on this one. With the 4-way front it was easier to run a couple 5ch's especially with the higher power 5th channel for the midbass. It will hopefully give me tons of headroom and plenty of power running one 5ch per L/R up front. I've got a buddy who runs a similar setup with different gear in his Tundra. His truck sounds great. I've got an O-scope to setup all my gains and inputs so everything will stay clean. I also picked up a calibrated mic for my iPhone for some basic tuning. Should be fun to get all set up.
