Default The DD MODS mobile gets some new tunes!

Only started this portion of my project in October!
In between all your orders(thank you very much) I have found some time here and there to finally finish my audio upgrade for this summer.
I decided I wanted to give the all new Vibe Audio a try. I was told some great things about all the products and well I must say the products from Vibe are very nice
Started by yanking out the entire system including last years Pioneer x920bt
I wanted to keep it nice and clean looking and nothing to flashy. I am not one to have alot of color on the inside of my car. Just some hydro(radio bezel) and the leather seats, bezel, console and lid with some gray stitching to give it a little color.

The seat covers are from DJ Motorsports. He is now rocking a new Kenwood 6980 and I am sporting his seat covers. Some vendor horse trading going on
On the audio end. I wanted to replace the back speakers with the Vibe QB69's which are a 3way square 6x9. To do this I wanted them in the back corners and angled out. So I had to fiberglass some new one off corner boxes to do this. To make it all nice and smooth I took one of our DD MODs stealth boxes and raised it about 3 inches for the sub to set flush with the custom corner boxes. Wanting to keep the floor flush I then made a new amp rack cover to flush the amps into the floor The center section left in the middle will allow for a little storage of towels and cleaing supplies as well as my new supports I had to make to store the top in the car. We finished it all in some matching black carpet giving me the final look you guys see in the pics.

What was installed?
1- Kenwood 6980
1- Vibe Blackdeath 4 channel amp
1- Vibe Space Bass sub amp
1- set of Vibe Space 6 Components
1- Set of Vibe Blackdeath QB69's
1- Vibe Space 12 sub

SO far I need some more tuning of this setup yet but I am really liking the upgrade from last years setup.

OK on with the pics.











And a couple of the new leather seats to match my consoel and bezel
