    Bed rug, ARE bed top, Weathertechs. Little goodies here and there!
    Factory JBL unit here. I like the sound of it. One speaker already had blown, replaced under warranty. Kinda makes me wonder of the quality of the speakers.

    Stock speakers on a Sony MEX-N5100 head unit. Sounds much better than the stock one.

    I've broke them in pretty good. I bought them on eBay as "wakeboard tower speakers" but they look like regular kicker speakers to me. They've been on my light bar for about a year and a half and still do their job though.

    Stock headunit in my 2013 TRD OR is actually really nice, stock speakers are SHIT.

    So i popped some nice pioneer 6x9 3 ways, and 6.5in round 3 ways in the front / rear, as well as some pioneer tweeters in the front doors. sounds WORLDS better now. all for about 130 bucks including speaker to door adapters and speaker to harness adapters.

    have a pioneer double din but it's starting to piss me off. Having a lot of fitment issues. The scosched kit wont sit flush with the surrounding panel and the trim piece that goes around the radio keeps falling off. I'm wondering if the brackets on the radio are causing it to sit too far forward.

    Who do you guys like for in-dash navigation? I'd like a kit that has that plus inputs for backup camera. I was looking at the Boss system on Crutchfield, but reviews say it doesn't always play nice with steering controls. Plus the map updates are next to impossible. I've thought about Carplay options, but I don't have unlimited data, so having a built in GPS (and easily updated) would be nice. Plus good sound of course. Trying to convince the wife to allow me to spend over $400 (much less over $1k) will be next to impossible.

    I've thought about using a 2013 OEM Nav to fit into my 07. Still researching that one.
