I'm sorry, but some of the detail work kills it. The staples, the finish work on the openings for the amp and cap. Also how you have the encloses for the amp and cap sticking out where you can actually see into if you are looking at it from the back of the car. I dont know, I just think if you would have taken a little more time in the overall presentation of what you had and spent a little more time it could have looks a hell of a lot better.

It's a nice design and concept, but I don't like how loose the carpet looks, and all the staples showing. But what can i say? I don't even have carpet yet

It's a good placement of components that really saves trunk space (pretty close to my system), but ditching the staples and going with some spray adhesive would really help out the looks of the carpeting. I like the trap door for the spare. I'd like to do something similar with some recessed handles.

THanks for the compliments, yeah I know the parts where the staples are showing sucks. But I had been working on it for aobut 5 days straight and it kept coming off. Then it snowed, so whenever the snow goes away, I'm going to take out the sides, recarpet, paint the showing wood black, and see how it looks then. BTW it sounds great for tens, but most likely it could run one 12, depending on what it requires to run it. But I am by far a Audio person, you'll have to ask the "Audio Kings"

Thanks Again, and trust me, when I get it looking good again, I'll post new pics

Nice work. Other than the staples that were already mentioned, it looks pretty cool. Almost exactly what I was gonna do to my car this spring.

I dunno if the 98's have them, but my 96 has fold down rear seats. I mounted my amp on the back of the driver side rear seat and my cap on the very front of the trunk(behind my sub box). I got lots of trunk space too! I gota take some pics. I'm sold on Pioneer as well. It looks pretty good.
