and here you see how the arms serve an additional purpose in allowing the subwoofer cables to flow across without being visible, they entire into the arm via a single grommet located right next to the terminals of the subs and is then routed to behind the back wall and down into the barrier strip platform:

next, mesh and plexi was attached to the led holder ,the led floodlight was fitted and wired up:

and finally, the painted front grille panel was assembled with a mesh backed by black grille cloth, with close ups showing the precision of fit and finish, this ist he piece that has magnets embedded in it to snap into the front wall opening:

now some misc pieces in the trunk. first is the mounting board for the mosconi 6to8DSP, it is a piece of mdf with spacers on the back and threaded inserts on the front. here it is before and after vinyl, along with test fitment in the car:

here is the little switch panel that houses the actuator controls and led switch, it is finished in the same type of precision as the rest of the trunk, the outter shell is back filled to fit perfectly onto a spot on the oem rear trunk sill panel, with the little snap in insert is painted blue to match the rest of the install:

here is the grommet drilled that allow the extension end from the power supply to be routed into the gas cap area, so the car can be plugged in for extended listening. normally there is a cap on the end the connector as well and the only time it will see electricity is when the extension is pulled out a bit and hanging on the outside of the car:

and here is the floor panel that houses all the barrier strips and wiretie hold down squares, under each of those red circles is a #6 threaded inserts, so everything is bolted in place:

and a quick shot of the plexi piece i made before it got painted on the border that protects the barrier strips from accidental shorting:

and here is are some shots of all the techflexed, heatshrinked and labeled wires as they are organized on the amp rack, while still leaving enough slack in them to account for the movement of the rack...was quite non-enjoyable doing this smile.gif

okay...so thats it and my fingers and hands are just about dead so i will keep the sumary brief.

overall this is the coolest project i have ever been involved in, i used to think that i am pretty anal about attention to detail, but seeing what joey accomplished is truth astonishing, and i have a hard time imagining doing the same repetitive thing over and over again to achieve the same level of perfection...

i really wish people can see the install up close to appreciate the fit and finish thats present, but for now, i guess these pictures will do.
