What did you do to your GE fit today?

This is the first time I have done it. It took two hours to get to the point that the carpet was out, that includes getting out the tools, takeing my time and even stoping to talk to the neighbors. You will need a 14mm socket wrench and a 10mm wrench if you have the center arm rest. 14 or 16 bolts total. No screws.
I would keep the main power wire as far as possible to the rca cables and speaker wires. I also run the power wire in an "s" rather than straight thru and keep the ground wire as short as possible.

I'd rather see those signal wires and power wires more farther apart. I do them right by the door sills.

Here is what I did today, in the home stretch now. Just need to mount the terminal strips, put in the working crossovers (still haven't finalized a design yet, I am playing with them), tidy up the speaker wires (waiting for the final position of the terminal strips) and then I need to cut the carpet to shape and put that in. I also need to get a longer ground wire and figure out where I want to put the jacks for the sub-woofer speaker wire.

that's good to hear.
is that a 4/5 chann A amp? I don't think confining it under there without proper ventilation is a good idea. Also, check if installing the amp upside down is ok.
all in all... good progress

The end by the back of the seats has a 1.5" or so opening to the cabbin and there are plenty of airgaps arround the rest of it, so it should actually cycle air itself reasonably well.

If you think class A solid state is bad, try tube amps, the one I have disipates 22w just for the filiment heaters. It is 8wpc.

What do you need a tube amp for? Is it a museum piece or an old ham radio? Almost anything vacume tube is super inefficient. Transistors FTW

I play with it in my home stereo from time to time. Can't say it isn't cool.

Received the ETC that I bought from SSMTEN.
After about 25 minutes of driving I achieved this on the highway for the first time.. which equates to nearly 40mpg, then averaged about 36mpg throughout the whole trip that included heavy traffic and highway driving.
Mounted it here (afterwards);
