Thanks everybody!

Don't remember how I even happened across the wood idea, wanted something a little different. The box is oak plywood stained as close to the color of the factory wood as I could get it, think it turned out pretty good.

Thought about mounting it or both of them inverted with the guts showing but that would've made it harder to save trunk space and spare tire access while keeping the amps cool.

Got the wheel from a member here, lost the e-shift buttons but I barely used them anyway.

It gives me a feeling of an empty room. I like it, but maybe smooth out the corners somehow? Looks real clean though.

That's an interesting take, I'll have to let that roll around in my head for a little bit. It is a little empty in a way, I hid all the crossovers and power distribution behind the panels so there was less stuff in harms way as I frequently carry stuff in the trunk.
