Subwoofer Solutions
Id like too see your sound systems and how much work you put into them and especially if u have subwoofer(s) where are they located?..
Have any of you tried using the original speaker slots in the rear spring tower and putting in 2 8 inch subwoofers instead?
Im worried the sound will become metallic and there will be alot of shaking in the car at high colume

Its not too serious. . . but loud enough for me. I'm an old school PPI fanatic. The subs pictured are PPI PRO 10" subwoofers. The amp is a PPI 4200AM. The silver box is the crossover, which most of you will never need considering most amps these days come with crossovers built in.

Aren't you worried that the vibrations from the speaker box are going to damage your amplifier?

Not really. Back in 1998 all PPI amps were still made in the USA, the thing is built like a tank. I've ran it like that for 5 years without a problem anyways. Plus it was a convenient way of hiding the amp from prying eyes due to the 2+2 option.

I know people do the storage bins like mine. I changed everything out to alpine stuff but don't have a picture. It works okay. The box has to be really small. I want to try and fiberglass one that is the exact shape of the bin, but I dont know how to glass...
Edit:
Here she is now. I also recovered my stock seats
