[QUOTE="Boley Buster, post: 7406216, member: 634723"] Hope, that is some phenomenal advice and exactally what I was looking for. The issue I predict that I will run into is careful and accurate carpet removal. I need to check to see if the "tracks" on the seat will also come out, if so there won't be an issue getting the wood down, if they don't then I may have some issues, since my amp is wider than the rails, but should stay underneath them when. Okay, time for my dumb/noob question. When I remove the carpet, is it glued all around, or is it just secured at the edges? Also, how do I get the carpet back down after I've removed it? I'm all for routing the wires underneath it and your scheme seems like it could really accommodate it. I'd like to get the seats out, put the board in, and wire the power all on Saturday then I can save individual speaker installation until Sunday. In all honesty, I just don't know exact ally how to remove it easily. I know the tweeter acoustically does best when raised to ear level, I actually took a course in acoustics last year so i know WAY too much theory about sound and vibrations. However, I was kind of thinking I'd put it inside in the old tweeter mounting hole since it should fit and this would leave alot less customization (and father angering steps) along the way. I'm not terribly worried about the head unit. To be honest, I'd love to upgrade now that I know that there are larger units that fit the stock hole. In my nievity I didn't know that was an option, and now I've kind of already dropped a grand on the project and would like to wait to spend anymore cash. I'll probably take the easy route out and ask for it for Christmas since luckily I'm still in the "young enough" for Christmas category. I'm fixin' to go take a look at the head unit, and **** around with the door panels and center console, I'll probably update again later this evening. PS- Sorry about the diction. I'm a texan and it comes out in my speech lol. [/QUOTE]
