Damn that is one hell of a project. I did the same thing with my old show eclipse ripped the whole interior and had the whole thing done in fiberglass. Told my self I wouldn't touch this interior or take anything out.

Wrapped all my trim in Black Gloss Vinyl. Looks great and I can remove it anytime! Also got my headliner installed along with some LED bulbs in the dome lights.

Should start seeing some actual audio progress next week! My 2nd of 3 shipments from JL Audio arrived yesterday so I have just about everything (Yes that large pile in one of my first posts was not even all of it)!

Looks good. I thought about doing the vinyl for my interior trim but I just traded my stock with B.G. painted black trim. Love the headliner. If I had time I would do this to mine.

Between being out at SEMA and just plain busy there hasn't been much progress till yesterday! Started the enclosures and nailed down a good plan for how everything is going to lay out (though my installer Tom loves to surprise me...)

Here are a few pics:
After sitting in the trunk for 2 hours one of my installers Tom started cutting wood:

Enclosures Started:

Cutting More:

Basic Enclosures done:

On of my other installers surprised me and custom mounted the control for my Audio Control DQXS (Digital EQ) in my dash for me!

And finally, I ran all of the 1/0 Gauge from the 2nd battery in the front to the rear (where I will have a third battery):

Hopefully get some more done this week...

I don't remember what LED's they are, bought them from a local store that carries that type of stuff... They were 6 LED's in each wedge bulb....

what'd you use to make your ac vents black?
This is the stuff:

I will for sure be wrapping the pillars in suede :) I agree the plastic looks CHEAP!

Spend a couple more hours on it yesterday... I made all the 8" and 6.5" speaker rings while my installer Tom continued on the enclosures... Also finished up the 1/0 run up front with a JL ANL Fuse Block.

Power as in electrical system? I have a DC Power Alternator on the way (270amp) that will power an optima yellow top and Shuriken BT120. This will be completely separate from the stock alternator powering the other yellow top battery which will power the truck. I do have 1/0 gauge connecting the 2 yellow tops up front tho with a circuit breaker incase either dies I can flip the switch and send power over! As for amps, 6 JL Audio amps... 2 HD600/4s, 2 HD750/1s, 2 HD1200/1s.
