Hey, thats me! I think it's great, sounds good and super easy to install, plus you don't loose cargo space or the spare tire. But if you're looking to set off car alarms and get noticed from a mile away, then it's not the way to go. It's perfect for those who are just looking to add a little pep to the factory system.

It's a sub made by Bazooka for Scion. It's got an 8" driver with a 100w amp in the enclosure. Installation requires you to remove the rear seat, lower and upper interior panels, door sills. Not a quick install, give it all day and go slow. I've heard it in the dealer showroom and was impressed by it compactness. The sound was decent, but nothing out of the ordinary. Bass is good, but not impressively deep, it's only an 8" after all. If you need some extra guts for your stock system, it'll do it. If you want to shake the body, it won't. But definitely upgrade your stock speakers if you add this.

I almost got it, but opted to make my own enclosures to fit under the front seats, using a pair of Fosgate 8's. Since I haul stuff in the back, I wanted all the space I could get back there. Amps are mounted over the spare tire. Got the idea from an article in Car Audio magazine
