hello, who installed this for you? i
Awesome job!! If you did this yourself, did you require any special tools? who cut the molds?
Scion Pioneer Premium Head unit
Hifonics Brutus 1600W x 1
Hifonics Zeus 85W x 4
2 Kicker Solobaric L5 8 " subs
Diamond Audio S600S components in front
The amps are under the cover. I made it this way so I can still use the space. I still need grills for the subs.

Awesome install! I am looking for exactly the same thing, but in Charlotte, NC. Do you have any recommendations?

But seriously, I simply told him that I have a $2K budget that I saved from canceling the stock navigational unit option, and he said no problem.
Why spend 2 grand on just the stock navi when you can get ALL this for a similar price?
Pioneer AVIC D3 + Ipod Adapter + Steering Wheel Controls
Image Dynamics 6.5" Components
Image Dynamics ID12v3
Simplicity Sound Custom Installation
Goals:
1. Decent SQ on a budget
2. Full stealth while retaining all storage bins in the back.
Upfront, the signal starts with a Pioneer Avic-D3 Navi Headunit. Front stage is a pair of Image Dynamics Chameleon 6.5" component set with the tweeters sunk into the A pillars.
Here's a closer look at the driver side tweet...
The Chameleon mid basses were mounted in the stock location and as usual, the entire door is dampened with Edead v4 and ue...
To save me some $$$, we agreed to leave the rear speakers stock running off the D3. After auditioning to the car, I have absolutely no regrets with that decision.
As for the trunk, this is what it looks like when you open the hatch. As you can see, 100 percent completely bone stock looking...
Even when you remove the carpet, it looks like this--STILL looks like stock!
Lift up the stock floor cover, and here is the system. Fake floor in CF vinyl, a single ID12v3 sits in a 1 cubic foot sealed enclosure, while a DLS performance CA51 5 channel runs the entire show, framed by a cut out. The amp is running the front stage active, sending 65-75 watts to each mid and tweet, and around 250 watts to the sub
It's so simple, it's genius...
