Boot top cover installed
Sub close up, note gap in floor board in front of sub
Sub gets cool ambient lighting effect
System power up time
HU checked, iPod interface checked
And she's done...
End result: Exactly what I wanted. A light yet powerful SQ setup that can sing as well as kick. All this literally with no loss in boot space or functionality. And the sound, especially vocals and midbass, is to die for. The fronts get 130w per side and the sub gets 500w. The BT kit adds a new dimension of convenience, enables safe driving and works very well.
