just did half of stereo, my $.02
well, today i threw in my pioneer deh-p850mp premier cd/mp3 deck, my 1200 watt solid audio amp, and 2 kicker comp vr's in my 03 civic coupe. this is the first half of my stereo, just had to throw it in cause the boxes were taunting me, lol. the bass is incredible in my sealed box, but there are a lot of rattles in the back. a few things i have found
1. dynamat is good, for all of you wondering if you should, you will soon know why you should.
2. make sure you check all plugs when you re-install the dash, i let my buddy do the dash and right now, i have no ac controls
3. try to find all the clips that fall, theyll be worth having.
4. ya know,the stock speakers dont seem to be so bad, they dont bottom out and sound bad with lots of distortion, i am happy, i will of course be replacing them with new onas and an amp, but not to bad for now.
5. DONT BE SCARED TO YANK AND PUSH ON THE DASH, IT WONT BREAK.
all in all, id say this install was easy to medium install from running wires, to dis-assembling the dash and all, not too bad.
ill try to post pics of it all so we have more on the site.

Rep Power: 0 yea, i took out my dash to setup my remote wire and what not for my subs, and to also run what's called an LPL-44 wire for my Phoenix Gold Tantrum 1200.1, so i can adjust the gain directly on the amp with a little **** i ran up front and into the little door flappy thing.
