Thanks, no fiberglass, just carpet. i have always been a carpet / vinyl kind of guy when i see fiberglass i just think it looks cheesy for some reason. unless done very good.

still havent gotten the alternator and batteries in yet. was planning on doing it yesterday but the weather went to shit on me, been raining for the last two days. i threw in a temporary system until i could get the time to do the electrical. ill post the video in a minute.

What wheels are those?

They are red sports, same people that make U2 and all those other companies.

they are doing great for being temporary. they have been taking a serious beating. i keep waiting for them to smoke but they havent yet. every sundown sub i have ever had has been a beast. i got 4 sa-8's waiting for me to use also.
