I had to ditch the 22" samsung, it was still too thick for what we wanted to do. Good thing I saw the insignia LED TV and finally was able to get the clearance needed.

I still don't know what color we'll do the trunk. I'll have to stare at it more lol.
It has been a long time in the shop, but I do hope its all worth it when its all said and done.

Joe, your audio build is looking really nice my friend!:biggthumpup: Take your time and let them do it right. I know it can be frustrating to not have the car, but the end result will be worth it!=) All newbies take notes on a car that is being built right!:dance: Keep us posted!

MrExecutiv this build looks great but I have some questions. AT some point in the not so distant future I plan on redoing my trunk as well and I have big audio/video planned as you do. My question is how do you get to the air tank and compressors if there is a problem. I have really bad luck with that stuff and as I thought about my build I was trying to figure out how to have a clean install and still be able to get to the tank and compressors if there is trouble. Can you include some pics of what you have done. Thanks

Midway-VIP

02-27-2010, 06:51 AM

thats gonna look hot when thats done. good job

MrExecutiv

02-28-2010, 07:57 AM

Thanks fellas, I really have no pic update for now, since the guy is just having fun wiring those small LCD's and is going to be doing the audison Bit 1 processor. lol.

They've made the panels around the tank and batteries removable so I can easily access them when I need to. I'll take pics when I can for ya.:biggthumpup:
