i just wanted something clean and functional...this is what i came up with....what do you guys think?
it was a little on the pricey side for the sub but,hey....all in the name of custom work. i had the cd changer and amp removed to make way for this sub-i lose virtually no trunk space,and the speaker can be unsrewed and lifted right out. i also have full access to the spare without moving the speaker.-now if i only had the funds to to do the other side



oh...btw,the sub sounds great!!! there really isn't a need for another in the trunk,because this is more than enough bass for me!. the old sub is removed and the space is used like a port into the interior cabin(no dynamat needed)-sounds clean and very tight,with the only thing making a little rattling noise is the rear license plate vibrating loosely.

Hey looks very clean install..
What was the cost on the sub install??
I wanted to take out the spare and put my IDMAX12 but it was costing too much, like $500 minimum for basic (nothing fancy) install.

not to ask a stupid question but does the sub sound different with a full tank or change and your gas gets lower? I was just wondering cause of where our gas tank is

Simple and nice! good job... you have trunk space and access to a spare tire! But im not too much of a fan of the amp sticking out like that. When you said custom install, i was thinking like a full custom trunk.

BUT who cares! functionality at its best! good job!
