really nice job on the dash...but DUDE, you gotta ditch the grill it looks out of place on what looks like a really good job

can you get rid of the riser of the grill and just wrap it in some black grill cloth? that would look absolutely awsome

or better yet go to the wreckers , buy a door panel and remove the grill from that and mount it in the center channel... the chrome ring would make it look like stock matching... IMO would be super sweet

I was considering what you propose MTA with the stock speaker grill, thanks for the suggestion.

I tried just the grill without the usual mounting plastic(as seen in the pictures) and thought it looked good myself so I left it. But if it looks like trash hehe might have to reconsider. I like honest opinions though. Might just change it up this spring. To cold now.

I really like the way the dash piece looks..but the metal grill...not sooo...soo...

when i have time I need to customize my CRV... Im actually looking up info in the NX5 seems interesting... I would use it all for just running my fronts and a sub between my seats as I need the back area for my tools... what is the range of the crossover? will it work if I tried to do a two way component of off it and sub? I will try to do a bandpass for my mid using the deck and amp crossover combination or is the amp capable of doing bandpass on its own?

Thanks Kevin, when are you getting your other tower finished?

MTA, the xover on the nx5 is pretty limited, the below pic is self explanatory

ok thanks for the picture.. it is self explanatory... looks like I need to look to a different amplifier, but what do you expect for the price.

I've decided to abandon the transmission line. At least until I find drivers that allow a smaller cabinet. When are you going to finish your car?

Finish? What do you mean?

It's more like a never ending trek.

I agree that the center looks out of place. It would be better either covered with cloth, or at least recessed in my opinion. good work though

Anyone know where I can get a D Remote for my N2? Massive website shows they're out of stock. A different name brand remote is fine as well as long as it works (standard mini-plug end into amp)

Btw nice install AAAAAAA. I was going to use a NX5/4 but the crossovers meant I had to use something different. I agree that using a modified door speaker ring for the center would look best. That or wrap it in cloth.
