This is my 2000 K3500 I've owned since 2001. Way overdue for a new system. I will also be doing a little "freshen up" So far I've recovered the headliner and visors (darker than stock) replaced the carpet, also went darker than stock, new grill, all new headlights/taillights ,parking lenses, hid's hi and lo beam, replaced every other bulb interior/exterior with led bulbs, POR15 the frame and wheel wells, Bilsteins, Rancho steering shock, filled in front bumper holes, powder coated wheels and bumpers and replaced the "3 door" ashtray/power plug unit with a "single door" unit
The system:

Source unit-Stinger Heigh10-using the optical toss link out
DSP-Audison Bit10D Full DA
Amplification-Audison AV5.1kHD Full DA 5 channel-75watts/tweeters, 250watts/mids, 1000w/subs
Front stage-Dynaudio Esotec 242 6 1/2" components
Rear fill-Hertz K130 5 1/4" components
Subs-JL Audio 13TW5-4
OFC Wiring/distribution blocks-Knuconceptz

Most of this CLD sound deadening was done in 2001. I replaced some peeling "Dynamat Original"

These door pods were my first fiberglass project I ever did. I had the black and flame theme throughout my truck. They are still holding up after 21 years. The rears will be reused and the fronts will become garage wall art as the front door panels will be returned to stock
