theunderlord Posted September 21, 2004 Report Share Posted September 21, 2004 When the cover is on, you can't even tell it's there. Bing, I'm desperately searching for your approval here. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bing_0 Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 again, great install did you do it yourself? definietly my style of install screw spare tire, i havent had one in about 10 years, and i have done about 70 or so cars where hte spare was ditched, not one came back a problem...short trips a AAA card or a can of fixaflat, on long trips, throw a spare int he back, still will take up less room than a big sub box in the trunk b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gregg Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Really sweet, clean install. What size sub is that? What's the biggest that will fit in the spare tire well? I've been thinking of doing something just like that (maybe a 12")Probably a dumb question, but can you still listen to the sub with the cover on? During the summer months (when I drive most often) I always have my golf clubs in my trunk and would want the cover on so as not to damage the woofer.

I was planning on doign that before I picked up two Infinity Kappa Perfects for a good price.-Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris_R Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Nice looking install! Where is/are your amp(s)?I plan to fit 2 amps (one of them a 6-channel surfboard!) and a 10" sub in my spare tire area. -Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aequitas_Veritas Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 The amps look like they are mounted on the back wall, or possibly the roof of the trunk. You can barely see part of them in the pic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theunderlord Posted September 22, 2004 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Thanks guys, its a JL 12" and ya, you can definately hear it with the cover on. The cover is on at all times, to minimilize the chance of something hitting the cone. The nice thing about it is, that you can't really hear it outside of the car. I have a JL 500/1 and 300/4 Amp's powering everything, and there's so much dynamat that it's not like a ricer stereo where the whole block can hear ya. Which btw I had in my old car, and I think I've grown out of that stage.. not by much though. Bing, I was fortunate enough to buy the car from a guy who spent lots of time and $$ on the stereo, a local shop in Seattle did it. You can see the custom amp rack on the under side of the rear deck. I thought heat would be a problem, but there is about a 1.5" gap from the bottom of the amp's to the rear deck, it's almost like they're suspended in the air.

Modus Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 Yea that looks nice. get a can of fix a flat and a bottle of compressed co2, or well tape a tow number. where can find it....And i thought my spare was hard to access.. you don't have one LOL Modus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swdracr Posted September 22, 2004 Report Share Posted September 22, 2004 I thought mounting amps upside down was a no-no? Sub install looks awesome though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bing_0 Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 the whole mounting amps upside down being a no no is somehwat outdated, amny of the good amps today will run all day long upsided down without over heating... i do try to avoid it when i install, but mainly becuase i usually hide my amps below the floor and such...b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potroast Posted September 23, 2004 Report Share Posted September 23, 2004 very nice install. I was gonna do the same thing, but murphy's law tells me I'll need my spare soon after doing the install (never had to use a spare so-far, knock on wood) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
