    I have not done very much but i plan on doing more soon, especially now that i have a 2 car garage. So here are some pics from start to now. :burnrubber:

    Plans to come include, Sub/amp install, 5100 shocks and whatever else that comes to mind.

    Day 1 :)

    Got a good deal on CL for this, dipped it. I will color match soon but the dip holds up well so far.

    Removed the back seats and plastics, installed sub and amp, waiting for tacotune door speaker adaptors so i can put my alpines into the doors, for now they are as you see, the sub i wont be using for long either, putting 10's behind the seat eventually but until then it is what it is and it hits hard.

    Funny that 2 alpine 6x9s sound better than the entire JBL system.

    1 more pic of the temporary sub. ive had this in my garage for so long i figured id toss it in so i could have some bass again.

    It was in my previous truck that being a s10 blazer 4x4. to bad i cant fit 12's behind the seat. I hate that i have to buy new subs to make this clean like i want..

    Thanks to @iRideMTB and @aero3685 for the help installing the sliders. I would have spent 2 days doing that. :D
