Well, i haven't been on here in the last week, and boom!! its alive..

I like the wiring, it looks clean, very nice.

As for the cut out, id be looking at making a new one out of ply with a raised profile, id also look at the boat sound deadening foam attached to to it to reduce the noise in the van.

Keep up the thread, as its the most exciting thing on this forum, and your detailed posts are helpful for others.
