Good thing you didn't try to angle those on axis... our a pillars already make a pretty decent blind spot. Looking good. They should look pretty stock when done... if you/we/someone can figure out a way to wrap them below that grab handle.... if only it was removable.
...and sand/smooth the outside of that to near perfection. Vinyl is unforgiving.

Thanks man. I probably could have pushed the speakers into the a-pillar a bit further but the Focals have a fairly large magnet and I didn't want to have to worry about clearance issues. I'll come up with something for the transition...

Since I originally ran 4 gauge power wire, I am also replacing that with some 1/0 gauge welding cable (perks of working in a welding shop).
This is what I have in mind for my amp rack behind the rear driver's side seat. Going to cover it in black vinyl as well (stupid sideways pics lol).

Looking good. Check out Canadian tire for some automotive edge trim. It is that thin rubber that is suppose to pinch over the edges of sheet metal. You can use it around the carpet cut out for the amp rack.

Definitely jealous! I want to do this but don't want to void any electronic warranty (trucks still brand new so I have to wait a year).
That amp rack looks nice and organized!

Electronic warranty??? That's why you do your homework and use correct wiring, fuses, etc. It's really not that hard and you would have to have one hell of a crappy dealership to give you any grief.
