Today I was able to get the amp rack built... Its almost done.. I just need to carpet it on monday so it will match everything. From the looks of the pictures, its looks like they are sitting at a 90 degree angle.. they are not... the lean towards the back a good bit... Let me know what you all think...

btw... I will be using a AudioControl LC8... What signals do I run into that box? The front right and left and rear right and left off the bose head unit? I am a little confused on how I will accomplish this... Thanks in advance!

yes, easiest way to get the signal at the head unit. if you go out and get a metra or best kits harness as if you were doing a head unit install, you can use that to easily figure out which wires are which.
next time you need to make a plate like that, if you have access to a router with a flush trim bit, you could make those plates in about 5-10 minutes. i did mine on a router table, screwed the factory speaker to a piece of mdf, then routed it out. i like the fact that you took the time to paint the piece, most people wouldnt think of that.

Your welcome..... this old dog has many install tricks up his sleeve. What did you make the baffle out of in the door, please tell me it was black ABS or that you live in a area that has no major temperature swings or rain.
