Ok guys....the Titan install is officially DONE. I may have skipped some of my steps because i got anxious and have been sick for three days, so if anyone has any questions about how I did something, feel free to ask. Today i got all my wiring laid out where i wanted it, bundled together where it would be and then relaid the carpet.
I then used the mini center console i found under my bench front seat as a wiring spot. I put my fuses and distribution block there, as well as the source controller for the headrest monitors and the sirius tuner.
I got the head unit installed and found the perfect spot to mount the bass control knob for the JL 500/1 amplifier. Just to the left of the AC controls, there is a round plastic piece that worked great. you can sorta see it in the pic.
I mounted one amp under each seat and got the wiring all cleaned up. One thing you can't see in the pics is how i mounted the amps to the floor. I took hard plastic rod i had in the garage that was about 3/4" diameter and cut 8 1" pieces out of it. I then drilled a hole in the middle of each one and put them under the corner of each amp and used self tapping machine screws to secure the amps to the floorboard. This keeps the amps 1" off the floor so that the rear floor heaters were not blocked as well as giving the amps some distance off the floor in case of a drink spill or wet carpet or whatever.
Put the front seats back in and then ran the lines up the backs of the seats to the headrest monitors I previously put in. To do this i came out the side of my console, into the back of the seat and up to the headrest. This was really easy because my seatcovers unzipped on that side so i could just unzip them and run my hand all the way up to the headrest.
For the main power feed, I went through the firewall on the drivers side through the same hole that the hood release goes. There was a large grommet there that i just cut a hole in and fed my 2 gauge wire through. I then ran it across the back and over to the battery, mounting my 150amp fuse to the lid of the relay box behind the battery.

I also installed the Boyo license plate frame back up camera today. No pics of that but it was very easy. With the boyo it has a single wire that runs from the camera to the back of the stereo that also has a 12volt and negative wire. I wired those into my head unit and my head unit had a purple wire that needed to be spliced into the reverse wire on my vehicle. It took me a while to find the reverse wire because i don't have rear view wire or the one everyone talks about in the passenger kick panel. I did find a green/white wire in the driver kick panel, put a volt meter on it and sure enough that was what i needed. As far as how i got the wire into the cab, i found a grommet on the rear wall drivers side about 10" above the floor that had nothing in it. i used my razor to make a small X in the middle and fed the wire out from the cab. Done deal. I like this wiring set up better than what some other have done because it allows the camera to be on at any time rather than just in reverse. my head unit actually has a button i can press to view the rear camera at any time, which will be nice for monitoring my boat on the highway or whatever.
The last thing i did was mount my JL stealthbox under the passenger side of the rear seat. this was pretty easy with only one long stud that had to have a hole drilled through the floor and a nut/washer tightened from the under side of the vehicle. Now everything is completely done, working and sounding great! Just a little tweaking to do on EQ and stuff.
