Looks good, but would look a lot cleaner if you could clean up the wiring by the amps a little bit more. But like I said, overall, looks good.

I'd cover up those wires a little bit. Other than that it looks great. What brand kicks and components are those?

I like the kick panels, but doesn't look like they would work in a standard-shift car 
I like the setup as well, but yah, just clean up the wires a tad and you're all set!
How do you like the Audiobahn speakers and amps? I have a pair of subs by them, but I have heard that their other stuff is below par. I'd like to know if that's true or not!

nice setup, but from the looks of it... are those kick panels aimed correctly for optimum staging? they seem to be facing too centrally... not enough at the driver... maybe it's just me.
also, you remove that screen at night, right?
what do you have hooked up to the screen?

so... when do you actually get to use this screen?
its not being used for navigation or vehicle functions (e.g. radio playback)... then it's not legal to have it on (in your case)...
in my city people get the shaft for stuff like that.. the ticket is usually more than the price of the screen.

I think the best way to mount a screen, is to use a headrest mount... they pop in and out so easily... just as easy as taking off your faceplate on your stereo.

headrest mount is retarded in my car becasue im so tall the screen would be like this to the passenger:
screen--> | |<-- passenger
screen + passenger = really close
screen--> | |<-- passenger
screen + passenger = really close

no no no... I mean, mount it wherever the hell you want... but the method of physically mounting it...use the headrest module... it allows the screen to pop in and out like a faceplate.

or you can use a universal mount and jus unscrew the bolt and take it out also with that you wont have a lil frame surrounding the screen from the headrest type

sounds annoying... I guess to each their own.. I'd rather have mine flush-mounted in the dash, so the headrest mount would work great anyways.
