MrExecutiv this build looks great but I have some questions. AT some point in the not so distant future I plan on redoing my trunk as well and I have big audio/video planned as you do. My question is how do you get to the air tank and compressors if there is a problem. I have really bad luck with that stuff and as I thought about my build I was trying to figure out how to have a clean install and still be able to get to the tank and compressors if there is trouble. Can you include some pics of what you have done. Thanks

They've made the panels around the tank and batteries removable so I can easily access them when I need to. I'll take pics when I can for ya.:biggthumpup:
