Does not seem as strong as factory.
Thanks Richard. The missing V in my post was a typo. At first I was like did I spell it incorrectly or forget to install a letter hahaha!!!! The offset bracket came with the kit from a forum member Tom(he has the kit for sale in the classified section. They are really nice). The bracket is supposed to offset forward but they stick out forward more then I like. I guess the flip of the bracket may be an issue with leverage during and accident. I will have to think about it thank you!
Building the box was fun as I too used to install custom stereos back in the day!!

Thank you 72T. Now I am working on custom corner panels to hide the retractors and install a set of component speakers in.
