The dynamat took me about two 1/2 days. The stereo install another two days. But, it could probably be done faster. I'm a perfectionist and took my time with every step.
The enclosure is actually made by a vendor here on EvoM. It's not exactly custom, but kind of custom since it's made specifically for the Evo. My 12W6 was a perfect fit for the enclosure, so it just made sense. I got quotes for a custom enclosure by some local shops and they wanted anywhere between $450-$600. Here's a link to the enclosure...

looks like a clean install. im still trying to decide where i want to install my crossovers for my front components. i have the head unit for my kenwood 819dvd under my passenger seat and im planning on installing my kenwood multi channel amp under the driver seat. im probably gonna mount them in the door panels.

I recently installed the same headunit and I must say it is extremely impressive. User friendliness is definately out of the question unless the Nav portion is being used. I still havent set everything up yet. I think as far as DD headunits go, with the Nav add-on, the DDX-8019 is the total package. Again, not too user friendly but it's still a phenominal piece. Good luck with it and have fun. I'll be playing with mine all week.
