The factory dash underwent some serious plastic surgery to now house a 7" Eclipse LCD screen and a Sony CD player. In order to accomplish this, the climate control had to be relocated lower in the dash and the ashtray was traded for the controller for a Phoenix Gold digital EQ.

Custom pieces were constructed out of ABS plastic to blend the screen and radio into the dash. Another one combines the shifter bezel into the EQ controller as well as the original hazard button.

Seeing how this is a highlighted install, custom kick panels were built to show of the Focal Utopia 6.5" component speakers. They were wrapped in factory match vinyl.

Here is the finished trunk proudly displaying two Phoenix Gold 10th anniversary edition amplifiers totaling 4500 watts. Also seen is the Phoenix Gold DEQ (30 band digital EQ) and Sony CD changer.

Special steel racks and brackets were welded to hold the equipment securely and still give the amps a floating look.

The left side of the trunk is home to a Phoenix Gold 20 Farad Power Core capacitor and a second Optima Battery.

Two JL Audio 12W7 subwoofers now reside in the spare tire well. Each has its own sealed enclosure. The baffle was made out of fiberglass and painted white to match the side panels.

In the middle of construction, each side has a 1/4" thick fiberglass panel that runs from the trunk opening all the way up to the amplifiers. They were then painted white to match the car.
