I guess it helps that my naks were SQ subs and these pick up pretty well in there place. Now i just have drop the amp in the floor. mounted on the box for the time being. Thanks again for everyones help. Pics to come as soon as i get me camera back. hmmmmm, i wonder just what the g/f is doing with it 1998 SE ATX Dual exhaust Body conversion Nakamichi CD-40z HU Sound by Crystal Mobile Powered by a/d/s M860 AMP My Ride

Oh yeah, I should especially thank my neighbour for helping me build the thing. 1998 SE ATX Dual exhaust Body conversion Nakamichi CD-40z HU Sound by Crystal Mobile Powered by a/d/s M860 AMP My Ride

I'd like to change to two 8's rather than my single 12 in the big muthafkn box it's in that takes up too much for my usage of trunk. Plus, what you have i could through my skis right through if i need to. Maybe i'll put the rear strut bar in also. I like your set up! In anyway, would you have your diagrams and measurements for your fabrication? Let me know. TIA. if you're bored, here is some info on my slug... http://members.cardomain.com/trade4mondeo
