here is how my current one sits now......



Anyway here is how the 2011 one started brand new

[RG79]

My first step was to upgrade the audio system while adding a security system and DVD players. I run a shop in San Diego that does work of this nature for New Car Dealers exclusively throughout CA.

I installed all new speakers and amps to power everything.

Speakers
Front doors=6-1/2" Boston Acoustic pro-series components
Dash= 3-1/2" Boston Acoustic co-axial
rear doors & hatch= 6-1/2" Boston Acoustic co-axial
Sub= 10" W6 JL Audio

Amps
Sub Amp= JL Audio XD-600/1
front door amp= JL Audio XD-200/2
rear doors & hatch amp= JL Audio XD-400/4
dash speakers ran off deck with PAC-Audio Bass Blockers

Here is the 6-1/2 coax that I installed using the existing bezel by simply cutting out the factory speaker.

I then mounted my 2ch amp for the front doors and the 4ch amp for the rear doors and hatch under my drivers seat. I had to build an amp rack that sits on top of the floor air ducts. This amp rack also redirects the air under the amps to the second row.

I then mounted my mono sub amp under the passenger seat. I had to create the same type amp rack for this side as well. I laid my Spyderco on top to show how small the amp was

[RG79]

Now for the tricky part I wanted to have a sub but I also wanted to maintain my third row seat????????

I was able to create a custom fiberglass box that allows for both a sub and third row seat accessibility. Had to cut out part of the rear passenger panel to make room, all in all it came out pretty good. oh yeah and I relocated the power points in the cubby on the rear panel.....

Looks like it's going to sound outstanding. Wish pictures could capture the difference in audio quality. Great work.

[RG79]

next step was adding a remote start security system and headrest DVD players. I installed a Code Alarm system that also pairs with my iPhone at any distance.






here are the pics from the DVD headrest I actually did a separate thread on this Rosen Headrest DVD install

[RG79]

The addition of Bilstein 5100 shocks was a quick fix to get my T4R the height I wanted and needed to clear the 295 nitto TG's. I do plan on upgrading soon to a slightly beefier suspension.


Here is a pic of my old 88 Toyota pick up that had some decent suspension on it.





Anyway here are the Bilsteins I added front and rear, fronts set @ 1.75

Thanks, there was a slight rattle when I initially did the sub box. I removed it and added more dynamat to the rear 1/4 panel and re-secured it. Other than that no, for now.......

I also installed a LED light bar here is the write up Baja Designs 30" Stealth LED Bar

Super Bright Light I like it a lot.
