Sounds great, I'll see if my girl can get the time off from work, and we'll drive out.
Speaking of deck, my amp just blew(refurbed china junk=cheap) and took out a 6x9. Good thing they were cheap clarions, think I'm gonna order a new set of infinity kappas because those 6x9s add so much depth to the sound. The cheap clarions helped but the kappas will be mucho better.

Thanks guys, I still need to mock it up on the truck to make sure it looks right, and I'm not crazy about the way the ends terminate after the marker lights. They will need to be massaged a bit.
