looks gret a tip for next time..... round all of the edges of the wood in the port and the port opening. It will greatly reduce the risk of port noise.

I was just about to say that...I design most of myboxes to use the minimum amount of port area. So if you dont roundover, you will probably have port noise...
Box looks real good though man, I know a lot of folks that dont to 1/2 as good as you on thier first box..Now you just have tocover it and your ready to rock!

Only thing you missed is the remote wire. This is the 12v signal that tells your amp when to turn on and off, there should be a remote wire coming out of your deck that you can tap onto and run back to the amp with your RCA's...
What everything is on your amp:
12+ = Power
GND = Ground
REM = Remote Turn-On
Is that what you were looking for or do you mean the dial settings and everything?

Is that included when I buy the 4 gauge kit?
Also where do they hook up? I have a good understanding, just want to make sure so I dont mess something up or start a fire
I mean on the second image...
Do the speakers go into output or input? stuff like that like where does everything hook up too.

Ok thanks! I didnt know where they were input or output!
also after much reading the RCA cables must be on one side of truck, while power has to be on another...
Which side does the remote cable run with?

For a bass amplifier, you can run RCA and Power down the same side of the vehicle, along with the remote wire...
