This came to me with an "install" done by another local shop. Here's a few before pictures.
What it looked like after an hour of house cleaning.

What it looked like after an hour of house cleaning.
So, I started under the hood. First thing I did was re run the power wire through the drivers side factory grommet to avoid running it across the engine.
And mounted the fuse holder as it was just "hanging" before.
Drivers side wire run
Passenger side wire run
Radio harness wired and secured
All necessary system wires behind dash ready for install
Radio installed with a Metra dash kit.
So now we move on to the trunk.
Power/ground distribution
Cardboard false floor template
False floor made from 3/4" mdf for strength
The floor will be made from 4 separate pieces. The front and the two side "ears" will be permanently mounted and the middle will lift out for maintenance reasons.
This is where the amps will be. I really wished the amps were of the same year. That's gonna really bug me.
That's where it's at as of now. It will be completed on Monday and will update then.

I also fixed the tweeter install and soldered the wires.
Ya mean someone paid for that work?
Easily, a $300.00 job
Viewing Smilies , you trying to access privileged system?¤Somewhere 0ut There¤}]
The sad thing is that there are people think that kind of hack job is an acceptable install.
I can't believe that a shop would turn that kind of work loose, and expect a referral off of it. I mean thats how shops advertise usually is word of mouth......that's rediculous......
Here is a little more progress.
Wire entry holes
Vynil bottom
Carpet sides
Done
Test fit of amps and passives
Hole in the false floor
Finding the height of the legs to hold the amp rack up to the floor
Power side of amp wiring
All the false floor panels are covered. Just need to get them in the car and mounted. I will have it wrapped up in the morning.
Man I wished those amps matched
