    Very nice, looks like alot of time and effort went into it. I myself prefer a more conservative look, this is just showing my age though :D.

    Does putting big mids in the middle of the dash like that actually do anything to improve the sound or is it primarily an aesthetic thing?

    The work looks really good...........but get a few pics from the driver side looking forward, and don't have the pics be so small.

    If you have a surround sound system, it is a sweet setup.

    very nice work on the glass and paint. Not my style but I respect the work. The monitors angle is the only thing that really bugs me. You'd either have to have your head on the ceiling or you'd have zero picture. Car lcd's don't have the side/side/top/bottom viewing that home tv's give you. I would've built it out a bit to give it more of a straight on viewing.

    BTW, the speakers in the dash = center channel for surround sound. Come on home guys... ;)

    Zip it......I know center channel, but having 2 up there just seems odd and cluttery to me. I agree though the work is well done, but not something I'd ever want in a car I drove around town.

    I don't know about this guy but some people put two speakers up there because you buy them by the pair so why only use half of your purchase? Or it could be another show piece...

    2 center coaxes - maybe just for sheer volume? the pix don't show the doors, so dunno what's in there...

    it's very nice, though...

    Excellent work! It looks great too! Blends well with the lines of the car and looks like it came from the factory that way!

    Putting speakers in the middle of the dash is good only for 5.1 systems but in demo cars, the objective is to get it to stand out so people will notice it and you noticed those speakers didnt ya! ;)

    I like the glass job, but the angle of that LCD would drive me nuts
