Denali double din and 4 channel installed

*UPDATED PICS*Denali double din and 4 channel installed

Update: Finished dash panel, added some pictures below

After lots of cutting and adjusting the kenwood double din with Sirius adapter and new JL XD400/4 are installed. The 4 channel is where the cd changer used to be in the center console, gotta love the size of the new digital amplifiers! A cover comes off the side of the amp allow access to all of the adjustments. Still have to mold the kenwood trim ring to the dash panel and fill in all the gaps but it's sitting right where I want it.
This combined with the JX 500/1 under the rear seat, the JL 10in W3 in the back, and the hertz speakers this stereo finally sounds respectable.
And just for you qukon 95 I left the factory bose amp with the bose sub still connected and operational, that little thing just sounds so good

Looks good. I couldn't bring myself to cut up my dash so I went with the single din JVC Kameleon KD-AVX77. It's actually been a really great stereo.

The only thing, I would see if you can cut-back the 4-points and make the whole rail look flush on the sides. Then maybe fill in the background with something.

What I want to do with that actually is bond the kenwood trim ring to the factory dash panel then either bondo or gorilla hair the entire thing to make it all one piece so it looks like a factory made part. That's a whole different weekend project though. That is why the cuts on the sides are not exactly perfect, I didn't care too much about them because I always intended on covering them up

That's good bimmer that the sub isn't going to waste and how are you using the Bose amp? Nice DD
Install and using the CD player case to hide the amp I hope you don't have heating problems in the summer months with the 4 channel amp.
I wish I can compare a Bose amp verses my mtx amp driving this sub .

The new digital amps don't get hot, not like the old ones. When I first put the double din in there I didn't have the 4 channel so everything ran through the bose amp, when I hooked up the 4 channel I disconnected all the speaker output wires from the bose amp except for the subwoofer
