Here's another upgrade I recently.
I'll share a few photos and points that may help anyone who wishes to go with this setup.Here's where I put my Boost Solenoid (as suggested by Seb at Specialty Z):
 Dash pic before I removed anything. Previous owner had a GPS system mounted in the lower DIN:
 Previous owner (Rocket Scientist) told me that he had "pretty much eliminated all the squeaks and
rattles in the car." I guess wrapping the wires in cloth quieted things down:
 I didn't like the way the Displays fit into the stock lower DIN pocket. Trimming would have been required.
I remembered I had purchased a Pocket Deck with a flip-down door that I had seen on this site.
It goes in a Maxima, and someone on this site had a photo of it installed in their car. I ordered one
thinking I may use it in the future. Well, low and behold, after removing the door off the front of the
pocket, the Displays fit perfectly with no trimming required.
 
I sourced a lightweight piece of angle from the hardware store to serve as an added backing plate
to support the Displays:
 Sawed off the back of the DIN Pocket:
 I filed the bottom outward edges of the angle to allow clearance for the cords to pass:
 Used some heavy duty double-sided tape to secure the Displays to the angle:
 
The finished product:
 I also liked what some others on this forum have done to conceal the Displays with the BOSE
speaker cover, so I went with that look:
That is all for now.
