If you're interested in JL Audio equipment I have a bunch of stuff sitting in the garage. All of their top end gear.


  • JL Audio ZR570-CSi
  • JL Audio C5-570
  • Sub - JL Audio 10w7 ProWedge
  • JL Audio CleanSweep


Some pictures of the gear can be found here.

Thanks, will keep that in mind.

On a separate note, what's up with the Integration Adaptor? My God.. could it be any cheaper looking? Has anyone found a workaround or figured out a way to improve the look of this thing?

How do you replace the head unit in the car with that huge integrated unit it comes with?

Metra makes a kit for the dash if you want to go with a single or double din headunit. Scosche is making a kit with digital A/C and climate controls, but it will cost like $370-$390 bucks.

I guess I will be the first one to post up what I have!

I will be keeping the stock deck, but I did replace the front door and rear deck speakers with Polk dxi570's. Sound great, and got a great deal at Best Buy...$48.

I purchased the AOEM-FRD24 from PAC to make the install of the amp go smoother. I'd highly recommend it!

I installed the Powerbass XA-1500d on an amp rack I made.





Mount for the air compressor




Since I got rid of the styrofoam, The trunk floor wouldn't even support a gallon of milk (great design on Ford's part). So i tore off the old particle board and foam and replaced it with 1/2" board, traced to the shape of the original. Now I can actually use my trunk again!







I purchased the encolsure from Zenclosures online. Small 1.25 cubic foot sealed box. Great product, with awesome fit. My sub is an FI Q12.

I'm happy with the sound.
