Default Installed new system in my Regular cab

The stock stereo in my truck has been really getting lame in the recent days. So we started putting in some of the new system Friday.
I used the box, two JL 10w3's and the two amps from the system I had in my Lightning. I bought a new deck, the Eclipse AVN5435. It's a cool deck and does quite a bit, movies, MP3's, Nav and all. The sub box is still grey, I need to get it paint matched here pretty soon but other than that I am happy so far.
I have a guy making a set of custom door pods to hold my JL Audio 3-ways to finish off the system with.
Here are a few pics of what we have done so far, and when the pods get here and I decide what color I want to paint the box I will post the rest of the pics.. Any comments good or bad are welcome...
Thanks....
Bill

I really like that head unit; Eclipse is awesome. What colors are you looking at painting the box? I did mine with bedliner material to go with the exterior and the painted interior pieces I have but my truck's black so that probably wouldn't look all that great on yours. You though about amoothing out the boxes and painting them body color? I think that might look good. JMO

Yes, I was thinking of going smooth with the white body color, it would then match the amps too. The deck is sweet, just learning how to use it to the fullest might take some time and more reading.. lol
