Ahhh...I saw the infamous airflow question about my amps...I LOVE IT!!!
There are 2 vents built into our trucks to (from all I can find) regulate air pressure inside the cab. They do a surprisingly good job of keeping my amps cool. I did take that into consideration, and if you see my sig, my largest amp (for my subs) is a class D, which are smaller and produce less heat.
A buddy of mine had one of the D1200's and i noticed it made very little heat, and we were hitting it well. So i got one, and have had no issues with overheating or amps going into protect.
Al....PHOTOBUCKET...upload your pics into photobucket, and take the IMG link and post it. Then magically your pics will appear. I back up many of the pics from my camera into photobucket. Also, what did u do with ur tweets?

Good call on that one.

Good call on the foxbox!
Weedahoe: I like that panel you made...makes it look very nice...
There is one minor mod that is WELL worth and extra $130 and would be good to do while your are in there working...FATMAT! It is a generic version of dynamat, that is made and applied the same way.
It made a HUGE difference, less road noise, and most of the sound stays IN the truck, making your system work more efficiently. It is really easy to take out all of the seats, then the carpet comes up with no problems. Then you can lay your fatmat and run your wires. I put it EVERYWHERE, but the doors need extra focus, because they are like tin cans. Just my $.02...

Sorry guys, being a Sound Engineer/Musician/DJ, I have a lot of input on the subject of sound systems.
Moreover, if you do buy door speakers, I would go with some components that allow you the freedom put your tweets where u like em. I put mine in the headliner, in the corners, but some like them elsewhere. It provides a much more...spacious sound field. The midbass response on a component speaker is much better than that of a coax (tweet mounted to speaker) since there is no hole in the woofer, allowing it to move more air.
Here are some pics that I have posted in other threads...I think I am going to write up a DIY for it. It might be useful.

Hi and thanks for the Photobucket help mfs212.
As for my Tweets, I haven't as yet bothered with that aspect.
I did funnily enough, replace the door speakers with components, so I agree with your comments about that aspect.
I'll try to post up some pics of my Fox box install and yes, Joe included the seat spacers with my box. They insatlled great and I have no space issues with my subs.
