    ^ Thanks Stefen. Let me know and I'll be more than happy to help you build/design a stereo.

    I might just trade you straight up for help when I do my retro fits :)

    ID is out of business but the Arc Audio Arc-series 10 would be a better choice than both.

    I went to get ID first, but they went out of business and didn't want to risk it.

    I'm not a huge fan of polk audio.

    I got my sub from sonicelectronix online, they had a killer deal but can't find it for nearly how much I got it for.. If you look you can find it for around 250-300$. It's worth it.

    Got a new grill, painted to match with billet inserts.

    Then got some new LED's, went with UV and Red combo. The UV is much darker than this so I'll be swapping out for pink and white needles next.

    Close to how it looks currently:

    (Shot at the same time as above picture but we held shutter open for 10 seconds to make the light brighter)

    My Polk SVC 10 thumps pretty hard an needs little to no airspace. But I believe we have been over this before.

    Thanks!

    I got the sub from http://www.sonicelectronix.com and it was on sale for cheap. Never seen it go that cheap again, but I'm waiting as I'm going to either get another one of these Type-R's or get two Sundown SD-2 12's. Still drawing up ideas.

    I like ID subs a lot, just not a fan that they are no longer in business.

    I haven't ran anything polk in years so I can't say much about their equipment.

    Installed a BlueSea fuse block and hooked up my first accessory. HID Spot lights (7inch). Also made a light bar as well.

    Also mocked up my first intake cover. I'm working on the final product later this week.

    Took some of my rock light pods and mounted them under the hood to a switch so I can have some light at night. These things are wicked bright.
    Pic was taken without a flash.

    Well the Retro's are done. I haven't adjusted them yet, but the cut off is pretty close from what I can tell.
