Shyne151 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 Test fitting the box in the tailgate: Painted after body shop: I wired up four leds in the corners of the little window I made to illuminate the plexiglass. To hide/distract from what was below the plexi, we laid a piece of metal grate over the back of the plexi and spraypainted black.... it actually turned out really cool. It sucked I kept blowing leds for some reason and ended up having to raid my junk drawer and get some viper leds to wire in hahah Lite up at night: Quote -Installer for Duke's Car Stereo 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix - Ported Eaton M90 S/C, 3.5" pulley, XS Power Headers, 1.9 Rockers, FWI, Poly Motor Mounts, Custom Tune.

Shyne151 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 For the overhead there was a dealership installed rosen unit in there before... We added an audiovox unit that had a PS2 built in and ran rca's so the flo-tv could be watched on it. We cut out a piece of 3/4" mdf the same size as the footprint as the rosen and then molded in a trim ring from the audiovox unit. I then cutout a piece of plexi the same size as the audiovox trim ring with my router... sanded the outside edges to make it look frosted and wired up eight leds to illuminate it.

Shyne151 Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Posted April 19, 2010 For the amp rack we cut out a spot in the factory rear passenger panel and replaced it with an mdf piece we cut out the same size... Sitting with one of the door pods: After I mounted it upto the panel from the back: In the vehicle with some LEDs: I think that's about all of them. It's builds like this that make me like what I am doing It's too bad with the economy we only get a couple of these big ones a year! Thanks for looking!!! and let me know what you guys think!
