Edconline's Bose/Nav upgrade

Finally made some more progress now that most of the items have arrived and I've had some time to work on it again. I thought customs would never release my sound deadener

I got the MS8 mounted and all wired up, changed out the old 4GA run for the Knu cable, ran RCA's. At this point 95% of the wiring is done, which is nice. Just waiting on one RCA to arrive for the sub feed.

I put most of the doors back together and got the glass back in and adjusted. It was certainly a bit of a PITA but not too complicated.

Next step, possibly tomorrow, is to start on the sound deadening for the trunk. Doing that and the doors with the MLV/CCF will likely be a bit tedious going around all the different contours, wires, etc. I'm sure it will pay off in the end though! Also I will need to make the MDF speaker baffles for the XL's. Originally I was thinking 1" but I don't need near that much clearance after doing a test fit. Probably going to use 1/4", possibly 3/8".

I need to investigate the possibility of water entering the door and hitting the back side of the speaker as well. It looks like the factory ones are protected by the plastic adapter which I am reusing but the new speakers are a fair bit deeper.
