customtronic

I just started the audio build in my 2008 F150. I thought I'd share the build pics with you guys. I'm guessing it will take about 2-3 months to complete. The goal of this build is to keep it looking somewhat stock with a custom twist. The source unit is a McIntosh MX4000. Amplifiers are four Zapco DC Reference 750.2's. And the speakers are a ScanSpeak 3-way front stage and Audison High Energy 10" subs. The mids and tweets will get mounted in the dash/A-pillar, the mid-bass in the doors, and the subs will reside in a new custom center console. The amps will be going in the headliner. More to follow on it all. Here is a pic of the truck:

A set of 8" mid-bass drivers will be going in the doors. Here's the build pics so far:

Both front doors are done and ready for speakers. Last night I started the dash work to get the 4" midrange flushed in. I will post some more pics later tonight.

And here's the progress so far:

Obviously there's still lots of work to do on that dash. I'm going to 'glass in an enclosure underneath, reroute the heater duct, and blend the surface in/texture coat and SEM coat.
