dang- It has been a minute since I updated this.

Currantly- got my subs paid off, should be in this hitch off. Bought a Pioneer H/U(AVH-X5600) with all the install stuff, thought it would be here today, but not yet.

Last hitch I had some wood cut to start on my box, but ended up tossing it.(I let the Home Depot guy talk me into plywood- and it warped- gonna stick to mdf) so I haven't been very productive.LOL

Though after reading on here about using a heat gun to restore plastic trim- I jumped on that today. Heres some pictures...

Makes the factory bose stuff sound way better than before. But I can only turn it up to about 20...or it is overdriving the speakers. but that is fine with me until I install the rest of my system.
