    Arrow Update!

    I'm happy to say the sound system is... ::::gasp::::: (almost) done! got the monitor installed in the upper portion of the dash.. didnt like the way it looked, the top of the dash prevented the monitor angle from being adjusted, so i set the monitor to reverse the image vertically, the mounted it in the slot upside down, only problem is the clock/writing on the face of the monitor, so i will be taking some black vinyl and covering the whole face of it, then getting one of those VehiCROSS stickers from ebay and putting it on the face of the monitor... should look sexy!

    That monitor would not work here...it covers the vital a/c vents!

    haha, yeah, i was a little worried about that.. but figured i wouldnt be watching too video as i drove anyway.. also that i could just leave it up at first til i got everything cooled down, then once the temp is okay rely on the side vents to keep the temp stable

    You may need to remove the flap on the rear of the underside of the seat if you put an amp under there. Just drill off the spotwelds.

    nah, the amp is small enough that it fits into that well under the seat, the metal flap doesnt make it quite to the amp, if the seat is all the way forward to the most extreme forward position, the RCAs stick out under the flap because i raised the amp up off the floor just enough that they fit over the floor and under the flap

    lucky, i had to trim some of the flap off to fit my amp. nice install btw.

    okay, well i finally got around to updating my how-to on rear speaker installation/upgrading/rear panel removal... i decided it was much easier to remove all the panels instead of just the one with the speaker in it, so i gave a 'quick' description on how to remove the other panels as well.. any feedback/more advice would be appreciated as im certainly no expert on the subject, im sure i missed one or two things
