I made a custom box to fit 2 10" subs in the back. I made it the width of the area (minus 1") and 3 1/2 inches shorter. I mounted a 10 disc Sony cd changer and an amp on the bottom and the rest the box on a 2x4 on each end. I covered everything with speaker carpet. I found that I can sit my t-tops on ebge between the seat and the back window. What sound! |thumb|

That sounds pretty cool!

I know my stereo sucks right now. All the speakers rattle and I have really crappy bass.

Someday I'll spend money to upgrade that.

Other things come first.

Dab,
Sounds similiar to mine. I have a MTX Intimidater box hooked up to a 200 watt amp w/an Eclipse system. AWESOME!!!

Do you have pictures? Sounds like a good set-up, I just got done adding an amp and new head unit to mine, but Im not happy with the overall sound - looking at ideas for BASS! |bouncy| I really wanna Rock when I Roll! |biggrin|

I went the easy way I suppose. I went with Eclipse speakers all around. The one's in the deck area were expensive since they're tri-angle shaped to fit those boxes back there. Then just a single cd in the dash. Looks neat and clean like I wanted and didn't have to cut too much.

I almost forgot this: Adam made me a mod of this section about a week ago, I'll post my profile shortly, once I write one. I've been busy! lol
