well, i knew it was bound to happen, despite my vow never to repeat an install, there was just only so many ways i can fit a RA50 5 channel amp, two 10" subs, and other misc stuff in a wheel well of a G coupe lol...

from now on, any future G stealth installs with similar eqiupment would probably get more or less color and trim material changes hhee

anyway...enough of that...

goals as usual:

1. great sound quality
2. total stealth when hidden away
3. lose zero trunk space

car is a 07 G coupe.

lets get started:

upfront, the customer had already installed a alpine 205, i simply redrilled the mounting bracket and more or less flushed it with the opening. the remote bass controller for the DLS RA50 amp is in the ashtray as usual:



the new front stage consists of a set of DLS ultimate Iridium 6.3 three way comp set, same ole same old midbass in the lower door, entire door dampened with Edead UE, mid and tweet flushed into the stock kicks:









moving onto the trunk, here is a view that i might as well have taken from one of the previous installs: zero trunk space lost, zero part of the install showing



remove the carpet, three cutouts with full covers on them stare at you. the entire fake floor is trimmed in black suede. all the opening and cover edges were slant routed for effect...

sorry for hte dark pics, it gets dark awfully early now





and here is the system revealed. after talking it over with the customer, we decided to go wtih a rather dark, sinister black on black look for the trim. around the two image dynamics ID10s and the logo is black CF vinyl. and the RA50 is upfront under a similar opening. though its very hard to tell from the picture due to lighting, th shiny CF vinyl relaly does stand out quite a bit against the more dull black vinyl







well thats it, you guys are prolly bored from seeing stealth G installs from me hehe, but as usual, it does sound quite good

wow another great install

 

nice install....do you want to give up 0 trunk space because that is your preference or customers? I hope I never need it, but I would rather have my spare and lose some trunk space than have it all and no spare.

 

16psibrick, i think we need to talk about doing me a system.

 

i do waht ever the customer tells me in the end.

but i have been doing sparetire well installs for a long itme.

my opinion is always that on short trips, a can of fixaflat and a AAA card is all you need, and on long trips, just throw the spare on top...both option costs less than if someone sees your stereo and rips you off...or in the case of the G, the loss of any additional trunk space in an already tiny trunk

the one thing i aboslutely always avoid, is doing an install that while not needing to remove the spare, makes getting to it very difficult...so i have done a few installs that doenst remove the spare and keep sit completley acccessible

but yeah, as someone who has been driving around without a spare for over 10 years...i guess i am used to it myself

How about using the space above where the old subs go ???

 

that area is way to small for a sub...

 

You don't know. Just think of a way to put it there.

 

Looks great

 

as in on top of hte rear deck???

uh...i think tsh probably way beyond anyhing i can do to make it look or sound any good

remember., car audio is like any car related mod, you usually gotta give up something to gain something...it all comes down to what you are willing to give up, and it varies from person to person

Where can one buy DLS car audio?

 

I may have to copy one of these for my setup

 

you can get it through me here on the forum what ever you , please do not buy on ebay, with fake, b stock and serial numbers removed stuff just send me a PM

Another clean stalth install. Definately one of the best installers I've seen on this site.

 

Nice work as always!!
