Default Bass Ideas

The stock sound system isn't bad, but 160W just doesn't cut it for my bass needs...

I want to get a couple kickers, or a bass cannon, but I can't figure out where to put it... I really would prefer to keep the trunk space, and I don't want to mess with the rear seat recline...

has anyone had anything custom done, like under the back seat, or in the welll where the spare should go ???

any ideas and or pics would be appreciated.

I really want to keep my spare in the trunk (I had a bad experiance one time when I decided to take in out)...

The styrofoam "tool box" to the right of the spare tire fills a space that would fit a custom 8" or 10" sub nicely...

So I was thinking of getting one high output 10" sub and somehow fitting it there...

When I had my ARCs put in, I had the amp installed on the back of the rear seat (actually on that hard piece behind the seat) so I could still raise and lower the seat all the way. I went with a 10" in a 1 cubic ft. box, so I was able to keep that cover piece so nobody can see in the back. Because I bought real high end stuff, my bass is tight and loud even with a smaller sub, and it looks real good.

i put in subs, but i just fit it in the trunk. works perfectly. if i need to get out the spare, i just put down my backseats and put the subs on top of those.
