Install started (Pics inside)

My Alpine Type-R Subwoofer came today and I installed it into the box I had made. The box is made of 3/4" MDF and I would have to say that it could probobly contain a small explosion
This will not be the only sub in my car as I will be installing 2 more at a later time. The box is NOT finished or even close to being finished, at this time it is functional.
My head unit is an Eclipse CD5000, and I will be powering all my subs with a Kenwood KAC-9152D Amp. My front speakers are 4x6 Pioneers, and I will be buying 6.5" Boston's for the rear.

Any Suggestions/Comments are appreciated.

My center consol and HU

Heres some pics of my center consol and HU. The HU is an Eclipse CD5000. I made a bracket for the HU from 1/8" thick steel, and designed it so that it would take at least 10 minutes to remove...plenty of time for me to run outside with a baseball bat

Box looks good, with the exception of an amp tray on each side, that is how I am building mine.
