New Custom Audio Install Pics!!

Hey just had a custom install done to the C5. Here are some pics of the trunk. I wanted to go subtle but make a statement. I went with the AVIC N3 head unit, cusomt built door panels with two 5.25's each and single mounted tweeter custom mounted in the door. Replaced the 5.25's behind the seats with 6.5" woofers. Put a Pioneer 12" thin subwoofer in the spare well and powered it all with a JL 500/5 amp. This system rocks. Oh also finished it off with the Blue LED switch out that everyone on the forum keeps posting about. I will repeat one thing...that install is easy to do, but hard to do right. It all looks great though.

Here is one top down, hard to get this angle, Im not 8 feet tall.

This is one from the driver's seat turned around.

That's cool, man. Take some pictures of your head unit. How did you modify the console to fit the double DIN?

Hey guys thanks for all the great comments. Ill get a pic of the head unit tomorrow. The bowtie and plate above it are both aluminum mounted on MDF. The sub box as well as the speaker pods are both fiberglass.
