Ok - finished the installation today.
It took me a few days. Some thoughts:
1. Running the power cable was a chore, as I had to remove a bunch of panels, the fender liner, and general contortions/uncomfortableness.
2. Getting the Stealthbox in place is a bitch. If I did it again, it would take 1/10 the time. One of the keys is to get the upper bolt in place, tighten it a bit to snug the box up, and then kick/scratch/claw the box into place for the other two lower bolts.
3. Connect the Remote Out from the LC2i to the Remote Line-Out on the Amp. I overlooked this footnote in a few places and had a lot of trouble getting the Amp to power on. Once I did this simple connection, boom.
4. The Stealthbox puts out more bass than I will EVER need. Holy crap - it kicks like a mule. Rock sounds so good. Techno sounds like a club - more bass than I am used to.
5. I had to fabricate a tray to mount the amp and LC2i. Just use cardboard to get the dimensions right, and then cut wood to the right size.
6. The Stealthbox looks stock. Totally stock.
7. My Amp/LC2i installation doesn't look nearly as clean as Ninjak's. I may go back in and wire-wrap everything. Frankly, I was stoked to get it working!
