    I would focus on getting the most low end out of a woofer placed in the door, and then sound deaden and seal off the door as best as possible to get that audible bottom end to be louder, may be even use the rear speaker location to house a pair of 5.25" subs, recess them so the surround would not hit the grill's backside.

    Then make the housing bigger with fiberglassing, again this probably wouldn't be teeth shacking bass, but should sound very nice.

    Interesting ideas

    Their rear 6x9 location presents a big challenge as the depth is compromised by the pistons for the top mechanism. People have discovered that many aftermarket 6x9 can't fit the depth. Might be a better choice to get some Q panels and modify them to remove the grills and figure an attractive way to mount the subs.

    I could also see replacing the grill with a properly made piece that would allow you to surface mount a sub, maybe even step it up to an 8" then

    Was able to load the driver's subwoofer box today:









    Used Bassboxpro6 to design the box. Vb is .402 FT3 tuned to 42.87Hz resulted in a flat output that tapers off like a sealed enclosure.

    When are you gonna drop it in, Steve?
    Ranked No. #1 in initial quality

    Idiots, simply by being idiots, seem capable of achieving randomly bad things that are beyond the imaginings of sensible people.

    Was thinking today, but the controller for the led lighting I want to use will be mounted in there, so it may get held up waiting for that.

    Thanks, hoping to get the passenger side done before the weather gets uber cold.
