Not quite as awesome looking as I had imagined in my mind.... but right now I will take function over form.
Remaining tasks:
Sound deadening on the front doors.
mount tweeters
run speaker wire to tweeter and woofers
mount woofers ( once I get them and the baffles )
install XRs tune on miniDSP.
tune subwoofer to blend with new system.
Anyone know of some good test tracks and specific things I should listen for to help my tuning?

Your making good progress.
I wrestled my LOC in today. I also ran speaker wires and RCA's on passenger side and ran my remote power wire on the driver side. Getting the trim panels back on correctly with all that extra cable under it is a daunting task.

I have my remote wire and amp power wires running on the drivers side, RCAs on passenger side.
I think I will just run the speaker wires up the respective side for each set.
In my previous car, which had all the current componets - minidsp, I had all the wires running on the passenger size and no feedback.
As long as you have a good ground feedback shouldn't be an issue.

There are two power outlet spots on fuse box, 7-8 i think, one is for the rear 12v power outlet for the rear passengers and the other is for the front 12v outlet. I used one of those two using the add-a-fuse method.

Here's a picture of what I did. Turns out I put in slot 6 which is for the front 12v power outlet.
I have the remote wire running from the add-a-fuse to my miniDC remote in then use the remote out of the miniDC for the amps remotes.
I think I may have ordered the wrong add a fuse. Mine doesn't fit. It's like the spades for the fuses aren't anywhere near long enough.
Going to pick up a different one tomorrow.

Hmmm. Is that ATR or ATC-L? Im guessing ATC-L. I know a few of my auto parts stores had both of those but not a regular ATC add a fuse adapter. O'Reillys auto had a reg ATC add a fuse with ATC fuses included. Always good to have spare fuses.
I also bought an inline fuse to help protect the miniDC /DSP.

Update: Looks like I should be able to finish this project this week
Kind of nervous about how transformative this project is going to be. "Worse" case I will need to "upgrade" all my speakers in my house/wife's car.
Remaining tasks:
mount woofers ( baffles on their way )
Sound deadening on the front doors and trunk
mount tweeters
run speaker wire to tweeter and woofers
tune subwoofer to blend with the new system.

Got everything installed and working. got some ground work to do as I am dealing with some alternator whine...
Once I get that solved I can do some fine tuning on the system. Overall I am very happy so far. Sounds amazing. I love listening to a song I have heard multiple times and realize there is something I have never heard in the song before.
