Install Pics - Sub & Amp

Nothing too spectacular, just thought I'd share:







Got pretty much everything off eBay. The box was like $75, I'm very happy with it, fits so tight and nicely. As far as the amp install, was very easy. I tapped into the singal for my Kicker amp right at the input for the Bose amp. No problems whatsoever. The last pic is from the cabin with the rear seat down, I know I still need to hide the wires, but just showing how clean the box fits.

Sounds awesome; I managed to get rid of 90% of the noise by just shoving some paper towels in between the trunk panels and the carpet/plastic. It actually did a pretty good job, maybe I'll dynamat it soon, but I'm happy. The only thing that rattles (not just moves, but makes noise) now is the rearview mirror.

Now I need to change my mids/highs. The two W6s really sound nice, just makes the Bose seem to not sound as good as I once thought it was.

make sure your golf clubs or anything metal doesn't hit the connector on your cap. If it does, then you may have a spark/fire in your trunk.

got a link to the ebay site of the box? it looks like a perfect fit in the arch area of our trunk. From the pic, it looks like the right side is a little longer than needed to be. can this be fixed?

I think it's just the way the carpet is sitting under it. I think the carpet should extent more to the right. Like I said, just some quick pics, nothing great, but I think the box does fit better than depicted on the right.

Now I like that, it's clean and simple and right to the point. I only wish they made one like that for the 05 sedan.
