No my back seats don't fold down. About the trunk floor, I used panels of 1/4" hardboard and cut them to fit the trunk floor. There are breaks in the panels so I can get my spare tire out. After I cut the panels I covered them in black vinyl. HTH.

I didn't replace any interior lights?? Unless you're talking about the orange glow in the 'headunit' picture. That is just the way the pics came out.
Vinyl isn't very hard to do it just requires some patience. It works similiar to carpet only much less forgiving to mistakes.
The panels and Vinyl probably will not help trunk rattle much(if at all). Best thing to use for that is some kind of sound deadener.
Good Luck

All four doors have 6.5" freeair subs...I know, not exactly subs but it does sound very good this way. Plans are in the works for adding a sub/amp back into the system.

Nice looking system. I like the fan switch..had't thought of installing a switch there, but it sure would be easy to get to. What is that rotary switch under the HU?

Thanks for the kind words. The rotary switch is a Remote Gain Module from Kicker. It plugs into their amps and allows you to adjust the gain of that amp from the rotary switch. Very handy item, I don't have a sub amp right now so it isn't being used. It's installed because I used to have a different setup with a sub amp and two 10's(in case you're wondering)
Later,
