thanks people.
i spent a yr on the fiberglass, i will warn you: once you start, it will snowball from there.
the basic idea for the subwoofer/battery/amp enclosure would work behind the seat of any truck.
i found this picture the other day, it shows the kick vent cut out.
notice my original dash fascia at the top of the photo, this was my original interior design.
a bent piece of metal that went the whole length under the dash.
ac vents and the stereo were already installed at this time, it was cheesy to say the least.
