My system is now 90% done!!! PICS inside!
 
Went to a local shop in the Bay Area, Motormusic, www.motormusicinc.com & they hooked all this stuff up!
Diamond Audio bits all around. Only had the base system (no Bose) so I replaced all the interior speakers with Diamond Audio components & 6 x 9s. & they're being powered by a D3 400watt 4 channel amp.

The sub box is a work of art! There is a Diamond Audio 10' CM6 firing into the cabin being powered by a D3 600watt amp. Nice rotary accent to the rear!!!

Bass control mounted in the coin tray!

Still some detail work still left to be done, custom rotary logo etching, interior lighting, hiding the sub power cable, grill/mesh passthrough & I think that'll finish her up. The guys & gals at Motormusic are just AWESOME! Now this thing booms WAY MORE than I expected... need to turn that bass control knob WAYYYY down.
But I'm very pleased with how it's turned out!

What do you guys think!?

Looks way cool, Steve... since I saw the setup in person, I can attest to it being excellent. That amp box is sick :D
I'm sure it will look awesome once it is fully complete with the lighting.
MotorMusic seems like a very nice place to get stereo work done and hang out. The folks there are really friendly and ready to chat.

I can't wait to see what they will do with my car... hopefully next weekend I'll get to see the result :)

What about some interior pics?

I live in the Bay area and if you don't mind telling me I would be interested in what they charged you for installation, etc. Thanks in advance.

Sadly the interior is unchanged. The pass through cover thing is still there pending some grill work & this is the sub facing into the cabin. The only real change to the interior was that bass control module with the FREAKIN CRAZY BRIGHT indicator light.

The red button is the GPS tracking/panic alarm... press for 3 secs to alert GPS tracking company of emergency who then call me (if no response) or emergency services to the location of the car.

The button on the right of that pic is the key fob/keychain. The grey one right???

Badass install BTW

Damn.. I couldn't afford the D5s after the finally tally came up... too bad too... I really wanted the TDX 12' & the either the D5 or D7 amps...

Thanks for the compliment, I'm sure my shop will appreciate it!

Thanks! The really sad or funny part was that rotary logo was done by just eyeing it & sawing it by hand!!! You can tell if you look at it real close but otherwise it's all good! & the best part is that is not the final production piece, merely a place holder til the final version is done along with the rest of the details!
