Very cool indeed, and a cool story behind it with it being owned by Sly. That truck there is the predecessor (IMO) to the civilian Hummer H1.

Given that they both sound good, what made you decide on using the Alpines over the scans?

Sweet install, must sound very nice!

One question though...With all this work and such a nice install why not install the hydraulic pistons to open the trunk lid (that most cars come with nowadays)? It would have eliminated the holes that everyone was talking about.
