I love being an electrician! Wired up a 12v ice cube relay off the amp turn on wire from my radio for the amps.
Grabbed some passive crossovers from radio shack for $3 each.
Gonna mod the door panels for the 5x7's and going to mod the hatch for the 6x9's. That way I can get the amp and bass tube out of the back and commence with tear out and bedliner.
Fellow sparky!!! What company??? I was electrician 10 years before ministry. Denier Electric, Grove City office.

3 reasons
1. they are louvers- when I drive alot of air comes in the front,forces the heat out the top in a constant flow.
2. I like mud and water
3. Thats what the instructions said to do
