What made you decide on the JL cleansweep? How is the system sounding now? Do you still use your eq controls on the headunit? How much storage space did you lose in the cab from your set-up?

I went with a cleansweep because I wanted the stock look but better sound for my speakers (levels the output). My truck is parked in a carport so I want prying eyes to move on to other targets.

It sounds much cleaner than stock. I have a sub that I need to put in though to give it more bass. I Rammatted the doors so the bass was better than before but I still would like more. I use the stock unit for eq levels. I didn't lose much room with the amp mounted on the seat back. It fits back there without having to remove the storage bin and the wires run inside the seat back and out the bottom. The cleansweep is pretty small and fit behind the glovebox (you probably wouldn't know it was there unless I pointed it out to you).

Nice Evil,
Hows the sound levels now?

Evil Monkey · 04-22-2009, 02:38 PM

Much better. I did a recording of a song playing before and after with the volume settings set the same, the only difference being the sound deadener. Here's a graphic of the sound levels. You can see the increased volume after the Raammat install. This was before installing the sub.

Painted the grill surround silver and added some bedlights:

Bedlights.

I think so too. I didn't like the BHLM at first but it's grown on me since. I think the headlights are my last bit of chrome.

How did you take your decals off?

I used WD-40, Windex and a razor blade. I use the razor blade to peel up a corner and then slowly pulled on the decal with a pair of needlenose pliers. When it was off, I cleaned up the residue with WD-40 and then used windex to get the oily finish off.

Keep the razorblade as flat against the truck (parallel) to avoid scratching and use fingertip pressure to move it under the decal.
