Got some new gear. :)
Bought a pair of ARC KAR KS300.4s to replace my PDX 4.150
now the goal is:
ARC 1: 90x2 - Dynaudio MD102 Tweeters
ARC 1: 175x2 - 8" ARC sub
ARC 2: 350x2 - Dynaudio MW172 Midbass.
(That's right, my midbass will have twice the power that my subs do.)
Using a pair of ARC EQs, one for left, one for right. - To make up for the huge disparity in l/r fr.
Also put Second Skin Luxury liner in the entire rear area, which made for an interesting fit of interior panels.
Here's a pic with the first piece in:
3.5 sheets can do the whole rear.
With the new rack started:
Not sure yet how I'll secure it to the car. I don't really want to go through carpet.
Also putting a few layers of glass on the rubber plugs in the doors, since the door has a lot of flex in that area.

That hardware looks sick!! Love it.
On the amp rack, are you going stealth or show?

Going for both.
I'm going to make a fascia board that covers it all, and is carpeted.
When that comes off, the amp rack is going to be finished in carbon fiber vinyl.
Right now everything from the seat bolts back is deadened. If this stuff works miracles, I'm going to replace all the deadening in the front of the car with it.
