Whats is powering my 2 12 DC Audio Level 5 subs



No more space in the back



BC coil overs have em for sell went a different route



1 battery up front 2 in the rear and High Output Alternator 320amps




Amp rack



fabing the double dinn to flush mount my volt meter - best volt meter hands down!!!

That's a really nice build you have there. The wheels, paint, and stereo are sick.

Stunning paint job!

I don't think my back window will pop ( hoping not lol) I took out the factory 8" sub and and drill it out to about 10" or so to add more air flow tho the rear back cabin. I will post a video of my beats and paint job. Just don't know how to do it or what program. (maybe via youtube) which ever one is the easiest.

You can attach pictures directly via this site. Just hit go advanced and manage attachments when posting. 1024 x 768 or so is about the ideal resolution for pictures to load better.
