Just About Finished!!!

First I added the Pioneer Head(DEH-4900iB) unit so I could control my iPod

Then I blew out my stock speakers and decided to go all out with a new setup:
4x 2008 Kicker KS 6x8's

Amplified with 2008 Kicker ZX 350.4 Amp

The amp is 100% invisible when seat is pushed back which was my goal.

Now I just want to add 2 10" Subs, because the base is lacking.

Also couple new misc. sticker mods

Man i'm diggin that Ford Logo, where to you get that at?

I personally wouldn't be puttin the kicker sticker on though, I think your stereo is sweet, but it sucks when some crook does to, and it suck to loose it all.

Carbon fiber decal was a couple bucks at pep boys. Just trace and Xacto what is needed. I also did the ranger emblems(it's the little things that count)

Yea I was hesitant about puttin' the sticker on, but given that I go to school with a bunch of kids richer than me theft isn't as much of an issue. Also I think I will be adding the factory ford alarm soon

Dude, it's normally not your friends that steal stuff from you. It's the D-bag that you don't know and feels he is more entitled to your stuff than you are. I'd yank the sticker until you get some sort of tint, and/or alarm. Install looks clean, good job.

If your intension was to hide the amp, why advertise that it is in there. remove the stricker.

i personally have 2 MTX Thunder 4500 10's in my truck and, for me, they are wonderful...def not too much bass and i highly recommend these subs b/c they hit very clear
