Hmm seems similar to the ones I got from AM. They fit really well and install was easy and i've washed as well but they were getting weird before I did the wash so it wasn't that. Might just have to suck it up for awhile. I was kind of hoping to find actual replacement marker covers but haven't had much luck yet.

I am really pleased with this setup. Good luck on your search! Heck, half the fun is in the hunt

Ok been debating on wheels or audio. Well....audio won. Putting this in tomorrow..
Front -FOCAL PS165fx
REAR-FOCAL AC570
AMP- JL XD7005V2
SUBS- 2 JL 10W1V34

This should sound great! Not going to lose much trunk space either. Fingers crossed. LOL

All installed!! Sounds great and best of all still looks factory stock. Everything is tucked away and hiding. Loss zero trunk space. Had no spare so built a box to make use of the space. Would recommend doing speakers before head unit. I'm still running the shaker 500 head unit.

Custom sealed box.

Nice thanks. I'm most likely going to do the Focal K2P comps with either the JL ZR 8s, or I have insider information that Hertz is coming out with new Mille 8s, so I might run those.

Wow that some serious coin right there. Bet they will sound awesome! As far as the door "woofers" go, they are sounding alright for now. Also installed Hushmat in the door. That stuff is pretty neat. Really deadens the door.

Yes finally! I always tell people to do deadener at the same time but they rarely listen lol. I have rattles with the stock stuff on some bass heavy songs. Also, I used to work at a shop so I get stuff at dealer cost

I'd love to see pics of your full audio setup. Something is off about the stock speakers, I just can't quite put my finger on it. But I had no idea of where start with the shaker system. I'm used to buying an amp and speakers and calling it a day.

This is the problem with the stock speakers

Pretty cheap!!
As far as seeing my set up...everything you can see has been posted above. It really is pretty stealth. Not much for prying eyes to see and want to I"borrow" with out permission.

You will need a line output converter if using stock Head unit to connect amp. This is what I used

Or you can just get one of the new Audison bit amps and process/power your whole system with one compact unit
