I see that you have a Sedan. 4080 also makes a box that fits a 12" sub in the Sedan. I think it's based on the spare tire size. If you have the space saver spare, you can go with a 12" sub... if you have the full size spare, you are limited to a 10" subwoofer.

Awesome job JB. I like the subtile/clean look and the "Nemo" playing on the screen is the icing on the cake for me. I might be doing something like this very soon in the Sequoia, but I'd be adding 2 head rest monitors for my 2 little squirts...

I'll bet your girls would love it. I'd say you deserve something new and fun, Todd! DoubleDin Nav/DVD is a cool mod. Go for it!

I'll send it (and Ian too), but I have to say that price isn't the only reason to consider Stereorama. They do quality work and pay amazing attention to detail. Matt spent quite a while tuning my amp and it made a significant difference. I wish I could take all you guys for a ride. The sound is awesome... OK, I've probably said that enough... The thing is that it sounds so much better than I hoped for, that I'm still amazed.

Congrats on the install. I had the whole rear of my car out and it looked pretty scary. After I dynomated the whole rear(and I do mean the whole rear) I was still getting rattling from some of the plastic panel clips. I used the old trick of felt where it was just a panel rattling against the car and where the clip was rattling using sound deadening putty that they use in home stereo. My rattles creaped up over a couple months. Just giving you a little heads up. Also you will find that the connector that goes into the rear view mirror will rattle. Again just use some putty. You might not have this problem since I have 900w RMS to one JL 10w6v2(I know I'm overdrinving it) but most likely you will. Don't you just love the 4080 box!

It's amazing how much difference a sound system can make in a car!

I was afraid that cranking up the bass would cause my mirror to fall off the windshield... I have my Valentine 1 radar detector connected directly to the mirror with one of Mike's mounts. It seems pretty steady so far. Maybe I haven't been cranking it up enough...

You probably don't remember, but I talked to you a bit about your 4080 box in the restaurant at the All Florida meet. I had never seen one and your comments prompted me to go out and order one. Thanks!

I'm not sure the prices would be relevant any more. I know the head units have dropped and I imagine the other stuff has too. The DD dash kits have dropped because they sell them in the United States now, too.
