Made a little progress this morning with the sub set up. This is the slightly customized box I ordered from rodneysboxes on eBay. It's technicall for an 09-14 model but fits just fine. Due to the seat lift kit I installed I could have him make it an inch deeper (sub is only 3.75" but has a 10-inch wide magnet) and I had him add 1" to the feet to give more clearance from the face of the woofer to the floor.

I also fixed the completely **** wiring job that the shell installers did. I noticed the installer wasn't the brightest crayon in the box and had to correct him on the alignment of the shell etc. I decided to let him work after that and didn't micro manage, but this morning I decided to open up the light assembly and see what connection he used for the wiring.... how about none! Wires were stripped and twisted, then wrapped in electrical tape. What a muppet. So I soldered them in place and ran the wires for the electric lock on the shell which was very easy and connection was made in the tailgate at the existing lock harness.

Default Midrange placement.

I snuck these midrange drivers in the door and opened up the a pillar a little for the tweets. Love the way it looks

those look great, but that's a 09-14 interior. The 15+ sail panels are covered by the dash.

Making a little headway on the amp rack. Just basic 3/4MDF bolted and riv-nutted to the rear Wall of the cab,

If you don't mind me asking, about what did you pay for the ARE topper? I'm wanting one for my truck but don't know about what they cost?
