All and all a great system for being on a budget. The owner who works for a used car dealership has seen some of the worst audio installs ever. He was worried about this happening to his vehicle. However he was not only blown away by the quality of the install but the sound of it as well. I was very impressed myself with the polk mm 5.25 speakers. VERY CLEAR FOR THEIR SIZE!!!

As always please ask any questions and please leave comments.

 
Keep in mind I am heading back for a stage 2 for a second amp rear speakers and a second battery including a bigger alternator.

There was a sub installed as well and hertz speakers we should have some pics soon of those as well. We will also be relocating the tweeters to run on axis with some fiberglass work. There will be a custom cover made for the amp as well. Enjoy!
