    Sorry man. :(

    Once the new version gets rolling and picks up some steam, I will try to offer owners of the original version an upgrade to the new version (even though their rear storage panels have already been trimmed to fit the original version).

    Can't wait for the concealed version. After breaking some clips and covers removing the panels behind the back seat of my DC, I ordered some new clips from the stealership so the panels would stop rattling. I haven't installed the new clips yet. I'm waiting for the new concealed version of the kit. Btw, the stealership charged me $3 per little plastic clip! It's the "gotcha" factor! I couldn't find those clips anywhere else.

    to come!
    Question.... Can I install this without the plastic cubbies in the back? I took mine out because I have two subs back there but I used a box that doesn't take up the whole are so there is still space on the passenger side

    HRDTACO, yup you can. But it won't be hidden except by the seat.

    You can install the mod with most (but not all) aftermarket subwoofer arrangements. As Greg said, the "guts" of the window mod in plain view when the rear seats are folded forward.

    BenWa, Most likely a stupid question. Will the concealed kit be composed of mostly the same components? Could I simply purchase the current kit and you provide directions on how to conceal?

    Sorry for the delayed reply. Unfortunately, the new version consists of mostly different components compared to the current kit, except for the switch and wiring, so an upgrade would require purchasing more parts. I would recommend committing to going with one version or the other from the start, rather than buying the current and upgrading later. The current version is great for applications where an aftermarket subwoofer box has been installed in place of the plastic storage cubby/panel. In applications where the stock storage cubby/panels are still being utilized, the new kit will offer a cleaner, more stock appearance, as it will be hidden behind the plastic panel.

    Sorry to say it is going to be a while. There were a few snags we ran into with manufacturing some of the parts, so it may be a while before we get them produced. :(

    In the meantime, I can still sell the original kit design for double cab owners. It works just as well as the hidden version, its just not.......hidden.
