I'm not accusing the guy of anything by saying this, because I don't know the dude. But having said that I've seen this before, but with sub-woofers. An acquaintance of mine showed up one day with an amazing sounding system in his car, but strangely he wouldn't pop the trunk to show it off. How many big stereo guys do you know who don't want to show off their system? Yeah, zero. At first he just said the install looked like crap and he didn't want us to see it until it was finished. We thought that was strange, but didn't think too much about it because he was a strange guy. Several months go by and he still refuses to pop the trunk when we're around- ever. We started getting really, really suspicious. So one day I was riding with him, and he runs into the convenience store to grab a pack of smokes. While he was gone I popped the trunk latch and found the answer to the big mystery- he had a sub box back there that had been stolen from another friend of mine about six months before that. It was obvious because it was a custom box. Now like I said, I'm not accusing him of anything here, but I have seen this behavior before.
