It was all fabricated and installed by myself and took nearly 4 months to complete.
This audio/video system consists of 8 JL Audio 15WO-8 Subwoofers, Eclipse CD/MP3 Player, MB Quart Premium Components, Precision Power Amplifiers, an Audiocontrol Processor, an Alpine Equalizer, Monitor and DVD Player, an Alumapro Cap, an Apple Ipod and Stinger Wire Accesories. I'm trying to use popular name brands that were used in the past that were set up to go together in this vehicle. It will be a Sound Quality vehicle and an SPL vehicle. There will be one last thing that is going to be done in this truck installation that has never been done before in car audio. I will reveal it once the installation is complete.

5 Blue LED Toggle Switches for specific turn-ons. I also have my aux-outputs on my alarm to turn the LEDs on and off.
Stinger Volt Meter (Molded Housing of course)
Apple Mini Ipod with Schoshe Wireless Remote (This was chosen because I can be 30ft away from the truck and still control the system.)
Monster Ipod Charger/FM Transmitter (The reason for the FM Transmitter was that I can park next to another vehicle and they can pick up what I'm listening to on they're own stereo system simutaneously and also for something else that I will share at a later date.)
Vinyl Cushioned Hand Rests
Inside of the center console are custom fuse blocks and about a 1/2 of a mile of wiring.

It houses an MB Quart Premium PCE-215 Set.

For the rear channels I opted for speaker pods that sit above the rear seat headrests since I didn't like the factor door locations.
These Fiberglassed speaker pods have an MB Quart Premium PCE 215 Set housed in them.
