07 screw cab F150 audio and lighting

Started messing around with the truck when I first got it at the end of May. Couldn't handle stock system so put together a temp system to get me by. This consisted of the following
Clarion head with bluetooth.
DB Drive 5ch amp
Hertz 5 1/4" components in the front
Audison 5 1/4" coax in the back
"Prototype" console with Hertz 10" flat sub
Huge improvement over stock but not quite happy with output from console and overall performance. Don't get me wrong. The system kills the best stock truck system I've heard but not enough for my liking.
Like any gearhead I NEED MORE POWER! MORE SUBS! MORE MORE MORE!!!!

So, I'm taking a break from work,wife, and kid and have headed to the empty family cottage for the weekend.
Need to decompress with some tools and toys 😊
Off to work/play...

Sound dampening and baffles in front doors
Rebuilt console with dual Hertz 10's
RReplaced DB Drive 5ch with Audison amps
Remote start with keyless entry adding an actuator to the tailgate as well
Front and rear cameras

Schweet stuffs. I definitely need to improve my setup as it's cutting out some of the mid range sounds and such. Not getting a full sound.

LOVE the light bar..I want one for my truck!

Few more pics
Added a panel to the front doors to tighten them up. Forgot to snap a pic of sound dampening applied

Front plate needs to be relocated as it does block a good portion of the light. Also need to raise toe light bar about an inch but it's a tight fit...

The Lumens are a nice piece and I can get for a steal.
Looking to add a back rack. May add a quick release second one rear facing.
If I recall it only has a 6 or 7 amp draw
Can't have too much light

So what material did you use for the extra panel in the door? Looking to add some extra dampering in my doors. Should I make little cups to install foor my dash speakers so they have something to reverberate off on the backside? Possibly the same with the door and rear speakers?

This is on a fox

I used a piece of Mdf wood. Primes and sealed it first then applied Buzzmat sound dampening.
Not a bad idea to put cups on the dash speakers.
On my fox I made a panel from mdf that replaced the grill and pocket (almost full length of door). This stiffened the panel and spaced the door speaker.

The heart of the system
Long ways to go but it's together and pounds!
Sounds great and has the spl I was looking for. Now fine tuning and hopefully get time to complete.
