On a side note, your bumper is really cool. Like how it has the stock ribs on it

Made a storage box/organizer to take the place of the rear seat! Fabricated a hinge for the lid that bolts up to the existing seat back pivots, and covered it in grey interior carpet from O'Rileys.

Finally installed my Thor intake I've had laying for a while. Easy install and I think it came out great.

I had some scraps of OSB laying around from work and two 10s, two amps and two 6x9s that I bought off craigslist new maybe 6 months ago. So I threw this together over the past two nights. Bedlined it with some old cans from the garage and used a bunch of old wood glue. The red box has two 6x9s leaning forward in it. I met the volume requirements of the subs so I figured I'de add a little storage space.

Im curious to see how it will sound- Have to hook it all up tomorrow night. It only cost me maybe 150 total so Im sure it won't sound as good as way back in the day when I had a 3000$ system. I just want a little bit more than the 5.25s in the doors that Ive had for the past 4 years haha. Amps will sit right above the subs- one on each side. I might carpet it down the road to cover up the osb surface. See how it sounds first.
