As everyone has said, that honestly looks awesome.
Any concerns with kicking the speakers by accident? I know I've scraped the grill on my speakers in the door a few times trying to get out of the car.

that must be a top10 C5 interior
Nice work, a lot of hours and skill involved there I would imagine

One of the coolest c5 interiors out there.

I like the rear speaker box. What size speaker are you using in the rear and how is attached ?
Very nice looking stereo system install, very creative. I like how you mounted the center channel speaker in the vent/hazard switch bezel.
Where did you relocate the hazard switch to ?

6.5 inch Boston Z's in the rear. and the hazard switch is under the shifter boot. Its there you just cant see it.

Sure will make it easier to fix signal issue problems with your new location for the hazard switch.

Neil? Your interior mods are hands down the most pleasing (to me) than any I've seen to date. The balance and component flow is just great!

Neil,
Did you do all the work yourself? Looks great BTW.
I am having difficulty with feedback on the amps. Even though my power wire is on the opposite side of everything. Any hints?

Thanks...I did do everything but the paint work. My friend painted everything for me. I glassed, blocked, primed and did all the prep. work all the way to 600 wet sand. He took it from there...
What kind of amp are you using?
Is there feedback front & rear and left & right?
If you want pm me your # and we can talk.

Did you have to break apart the lower door section? Also, do the speakers stay exposed or do you have a grill over them?
so No grills??
