That's a dakota?

Looks like a dang 1500, all up high and detailed out. Nice job!

does it sound (audio and exhaust) half as good as it looks?

oh, and I have Canon A610 myself. Even made a mount for it that goes in the slider window

Im not sure what a "corrado"is, but I believe their are six wires for the mirror. Two that power it, two for the temp sensor and two for the neutral switch. (when hooked up stock the mirror would stop dimming if the vehicle is put in neutral). I ran the power to the ignition behind my cd deck, the temp sensors i ran to the front of the truck where you would mount the sensor, and i just tied the neutral switch wires together since you dont really need them. Im pretty sure thats how i did it with out going and looking at it.

As for the exhast... once the 318 gets dropped in this spring its getting dual pipes that dump out right beneath the club cab part of the truck, just past the doors. Should be pretty badass

And as for the sound... about three monthes ago the truck was broke into and all my stuff was stolen. 2 10" subs two amps and all the wiring. I wired all the speakers back to a 4chan amp to keep up with the two tens. I also installed tweeters in the front pillars, with new speakers all the way around. It WAS the best system id ever heard, but thats no more. Eventually Ill do it again but Im putting all my time and money into my 318 swap.

yea. In our camaro, the box weighed 150 pounds, it would take 2 people to pull it out. plus it had 4 L brackets, each had 2 wood screws into the box and 2 sheet metal screws going into the floor. 16 screws total. And the amps were just as well- we used spackle and thick paint to hide the wood screws that held the rack together, and it had screws going into the back seats (folded down). So you hadda know how it was assembled to know how to yank it out.

Oh, yea. This was in a hatchback, in complete plain view, for 3 years until we sold the car (still have the system downstairs in storage). Don't wanna put it in the TA, and don't think it would clear the hatch.
