UPDATE!!! its working 
Turns out there were several issues. Sub and rear speakers RCA's were bad (so no sound out of them). Although i purposely tried to avoid them, the front window arms grabbed the front speaker wires and ripped them out of the crossover the first time i put the windows down (so no sound out of them either). with the combination of all that, no sound from anything.
I rewired the front speakers and got them working as well as replaced the 2 bad RCA's. 3 of the 4 speakers now worked (subs too). After testing with a DMM, there was a 34 ohm draw on the passenger side rear speaker wire. Obviously a short somewhere. So i pulled that wire out and ran a new one. Fixed it as well. All speakers operational. Got it all tuned up and working on installing everything again now. To this point i've got everything installed except the passenger side rear seat.
Here's the completed box.
The drivers side seat went it, and although extremely tight, it goes in without binding at all. Seat goes all the way up and all the way down without smashing the amp. I raised the seats 3/4" so the subs dont it the bottom of the seat at all. By raising the seats, it also did the "seat mod" for me without having to flip the seat brackets. Seat backs lock in place when fully up or fully down, but half way down i can fold the back of the seat forward off the wall to allow access to the amps.
