Hey Guys, wanted to share my setup. I wouldn't have been happy with the little pod style thing that most seem to install, I really enjoy CarPlay. I highly recommend the company PLZ for a head unit that's cheap, it fits perfectly. Also, there is a ton of room to fit a double din, just don't get one with a cd player. I also went with a 1500.5 amp, it fits perfectly on top of the HVAC box. I just zip tied it down.
The front pods are 4.5" Skar RPX (these fit nicely out of view while driving).
The floor kick panels are from diesel freak and are 6.5 CT Mesos. To run the mesos you'll need 1" spacers. I also used foam baffles. You can see them in the first pic drivers floor along with the RPX pods on the rollbar)
The Rear pods on the roller are 6.5 and are CT Mesos as well
The head unit I went with, and I REALLY love this company (used it in my truck as well that got replaced by this. Different model though.) Is PLZ MP-106. It automatically connects to CarPlay when you get in, super reliable. Always works. Starts quick. Sounds great. Backup camera and screen are of great quality, really bright.
The sub is an 8inch shallow mount sundown sml d4. It sound insane. Seriously, this box is just an 8" pod for a w7l that I found and modified on eBay (like 50$ I think). Its amazing. I got it mounted behind the diesel freak center console as well (although I had to move the mounting forward a bit and it no longer goes up and down).
For the dim function, tap into the 12v you'll find with the daytime running lights function.
For the reverse camera, tap into the harness back above the rear driver tire for the reverse lights.
12REM use the 12v plug (cigarette lighter) or the ROXPOWER).
Run the wires through the factory point drivers side then just tape it back up.
The sound produced is great at all levels.. It can shake the entire cab if you turn it up. Then it's just a little slider in the settings to turn the sub down and have it sound excellent in rock or whatever else. Ultimate plan is to make it the 4 cab full cab thing. So once I finally get less broke I'll install that and take the rear speakers and bring them to the far back roll bar (once its in).

the amp got mounted above the HVAC. I forgot to take a pic before putting the panel back on (after wiring) but you get the idea. Tons of room, easy access.
