Well here is the progress pics and details on the stereo install that i am doing currently on my VE SSV.

Components:
Pioneer TSC131PRS - splits & tweeter for front doors
Pioneer TS-A1672S - rear door speakers...i think
Pioneer PRS-D4000F - 4ch amp to run the speakers - 150W x 4
Pioneer PRS-D1000M - Mono block amp to run subs - 1200W
Pioneer TS-SW1241D x 2 - 12" shallow subs - 1400W each
custom sub box with perspex window at rear with SS logo frosted on it with blue neon lights inside
amp wiring kit and and the little bits and pieces
LOC converter for now until a VE processor is released
Rockford Fosgate 10Farad Capacitor
2.5 BULK packs of dynamat later...

click on pics to make bigger







at night boot pics....
will be screwing mdf with carpet on the parcel shelf and routering a trench for a LED Stick in blue to replace standard interior light soon...then it will be better :D

the parcel shelf is the only bare/non carpet part of boot so need to finish it off



will get some night shots with it all lighten up soon

no RCA but waiting on a processor to be released by a certain company that is currently working on them for the VE.

then will have EQ, RCA, etc integration with the factory H/U and all

The VE H/U is ****!...even the SSV one...

so after tuning the subs, etc in...sounds awesome but not quite right

so bit the bullet and got the Rockford Fosgate 3SIXTY.2 processor for time being till the other processor comes out...install of that soon :D
