huh??? Do you have before and after mixed up?
Wow...pretty ugly. Doesn't look they even tried to make that look good.
I could probably stand that for my own vehicle, but I wouldn't do that to someone else's for sure!
BTW -- want to sell one of your old amps?

nah...some time ago i upgraded the sub amp...w/ a new JL 500/1
mono-block...whe i did that i had to move everthing around...including
a 1.5f cap (that will no longer fit on the board under the seat).
I havent gotten around to cutting a new mounting board, drilling
the holes and carpeting it YET...
all my own work...im behind the eight ball having done some amp upgrades...
eventually itll look like it did before (little or no wires exposed)....
this takes more work than most imagine....gotta mount all the stuff
on a naked board and mark the location for all the holes that will need
to be drilled...then pull everthing apart, feed all the signal lines, power
leads, grounds and then RE-MOUNT everything.
thought yall would get a kick outta the spaghetti.
heres a photo of the 1.5f cap...it used to be under the seat
between the amps (when there was room)...at least NOW
w/ it mounted on the rear wall i can see the DRAIN of the
digital capacitor.

Who bush looks like you got you hands full on this one. That is when I get creative, I like hiding things and making the truck look clean. Can't wait to build another box and get them 4 10's out from behind the back seat. Were did you have the work done?
nah...these are the new amps/re-arranged on the old board....more
or less a functioning mock up....i just havent gotten around to
cutting a new mounting board and carpeting it <YET>.
when the seat is folded down you cant see anything anyway...
which is why i havent been in TOO much hurry to clean it up (outta
sight outta mind).
the work was done by me...in the driveway (just like all the other
work on my truck...and jsut like the finished version w/ the old amps
in the one photo).
ive been playing around w/ the set up a bit...just added a remote
(rbc1) base control (and have been playing w/ the amp settings, so
i snapped this photo just for the hell of it)
ill be certain to get a new board cut/carpeted and wires routed/hidden
and post another photo of the FINISHED/CLEANED up install.

Where did you find the matching carpet?
any car audio shop will have it...im sure their are cheaper places
maybe the web...it cost me about 20 bucks to cover the sub box
and i bought a about 30 bucks of carpet...enough to cover the
board under the seat TWICE.
