Bass options

[Homeboy981]

I love my little P-car….but the sound system and cupholders are junk. You will not regret putting in a 2-Din unit and a 4 channel amp. Then you will have plenty of bass with 6" in the door-make sure the depth is less than 3" using a ½" plexiglass insert, upgrade the stock dash speakers too, they are 5.25" I believe (make sure you hook the tweeter back up-no reason to have a good tweet go to waste) and add a pair of 5 ½" two or three way speakers to the back deck. I mounted mine on top and they still work well with the top down, then the bass is just right! If you need some help you can PM me and i'll find some photos and instructions to help you out. I even found placing the cupholder on the floorboard, as opposed to in the air where it is subjected to more Gs, suited my driving style a little better….the cost was $4 at Walmart and a little time for the cupholder…the stereo took a week, for anyone else it would be 8 hours. I was scared to cut my back deck storage compartment but it turned out to still be useable since the speakers are low profile they hardly take up any space and the sound? AWESOME! It does not take much for such a little space but one set of speakers and subs really does not cut it. Plus, the stock system is 4 ohms and rinky-dink paper speakers! My $.02.

Here is the new JVC HDT3NW Nav, ipod, memory stick, USB drive, video, backup camera (a much-needed improvement in these cars), hands-free calling, voice dial, etc.


Can you spot the stock stereo and cupholders? The one on the floor is more stable and cheap to make….$4 at WallyWorld.


Here is the back deck speaker pair….


The speakers are only 2" deep, so they do not take up much space…


This is a quick-disconnect for servicing the engine. Takes 30 seconds to unplug.


Backup camera view. I have it wired to the AV IN so the camera is on full-time…..


….so when I say "See Ya!" I REALLY mean it! Next if i could only record the reactions of people when it pops up!


This system jams and was fairly easy to install. PM me if you need help deciding how to proceed….
