5 Icon Rebounds for sale. 17x8.5, 0 offset. I used them for less than 1000 miles and then went with a different option. Asking $1000 for the set, but open to offers. (more like I need to get them out of my garage)
Good choice of amplifier. I went with the DSP version:

To match the power output of the amp I went with Morel 2-ways for the front and Kicker 4" co-axials in the rear. I noticed...
I used an existing grounding point behind the panels. You will see a bunch of black wires all going to a single bolt. I figured if it was good enough for the other electronics, I could use it also. No issue so far. In other cars I have used frame bolts, seat bolts, you just need a good bare...
If you like that spot, go for it. I would have concerns about the power wire stability with the tailgate opening and closing repeatedly. If the power wire pulls loose or the outer covering becomes damaged, you will have a live 12V cable exposed. Or if the same things happens to the ground...
I have a couple of reasons for the location. First, I don't think it will fit under the front seats. I put my amp and DSP for my Tundra under the passenger front and it was a tight fit. Under the seat is not really accessible, it is hard to get to if you want to make any changes. Also, I...
No regrets on the sub choice. It puts out plenty of bass without taking up that much room. The cargo area is still plenty big for my family of four and our stuff. I chose the down firing box both for the sound properties and the ability to pack stuff on top of it. I felt like it was a good...
Nuts, bolts and washers. The bar came with a back plate that has nuts/threads welded on, but I couldn't fit the plate inside the contours of the bumper. I just used large washers to try and distribute the load.
Personally I would go with the JBL Club amp. I am running a 5-channel JBL Club in my Tundra and I am very happy with it. If you put some work in to the setup, you will probably out perform the Kicker Key with that amp. You could also consider adding a multi channel LOC from Audio Control or a...
I agree on the 5-channel amp, but I might be biased:

Everybody loves the kicker key amps, they are fine for a pretty low budget amp. When you move into 5-channels and possibly a DSP it can get pricy pretty...
Thanks! Yes, custom amp rack I built from 1/4" plexiglass and hardware store brackets. More detail here:

You will have a lot going on with that setup. Do you want to control each speaker independently or have them work together as driver front, passenger front, etc? If you go to a 6- or 8-channel amp you will still need another amp for sub(s). You will also be doing a lot of manual tuning to get...
I grabbed the signal for both front and rear from the head unit. From what the DSP RTA and audio RTA is showing, the fronts have a decent signal but the rear is significantly attenuated by the head unit factory setting. I summed all of the channels together (just because I could), but using...
It depends on what you mean by functional vs. cosmetic. For me, the intended function was to hold the lights in the location I wanted. It is not a bar that will serve as protection from deer strikes or major impacts. If that is what you need, you probably need to replace the entire bumper...
Maybe I am missing something, but I don't follow what you mean by no success correcting a low signal to the rear? I agree that trying to use forscan to "open" or "get a full range to the rears" is not a great solution and probably a waste of time if you are trying to build a complete system...
