The head rests are now a fair bit bulkier at the back than factory but I don't think they look too bad?? any comments here???You cant see it in the pic but the xbox turns on by a button in the center console. The controller is also in the center console.After getting the visuals right I found myself requiring a little more bass in my movies that the factory 8" sub was giving me. I read quite a few threads on upgrades for the 8" but in the end I decided that you need more inches and lots of power if you really want bass After visiting the guys at ASL for an ICC line level mod, I went to work on a custom box for 2 x 10" 250WRMS dual coil sub woofers with a custom face plate to keep the boot looking as factory as possible. They subs are being driven by a 500WRMS amp. For the main speakers to keep up with the additional volume requirements I installed a 4 x 100WRMS digital amp under the front passenger seat.This section of the project took over 60 hours to do with 2 people working on her. A lot of that time was making the sub box and face plate With the interior sorted, I needed to give the car a little extra GO. This was done by getting a 3.5" SS Xforce exhaust put on and then giving the car to the wog to edit her up for me There is probably other things that I've missed that ill add when I remember what I've done (its been a 6 month project and I lost my mind years ago )but so you can see the car I've done this too, here she is:If your thinking about doing any of these mods, I've now got a few months of R&D that I'm more than willing to share Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/24804-project-phoon/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
