Bazooka Tube
 

I've had some great success with a 8" Bazooka Tube in the front trunk. It's different with the bass coming from the front of the car (the pedals vibrate instead of the back of your seat) but it gives me the desired effect ... more bass with my sound system

Pros: I haven't had to build any enclosures or given up any space inside the car and I barely use the front trunk anyway (I still have the spare in there as well).

Cons: unusal bass focus point but def. acceptable.

Wiring up was pretty straight foward because I could ground using an existing ground point and the battery is in the front (for the +ve) . It was a little tricky finding a route through the bulk head. I also had to tighten up some of the trim surrounding the front trunk due to the increased vibration. Rubber washers under the screw points worked very well.

I'll try and take some pics and post.

Not many people have ever seen this work of art. A member over on renntech makes this from scratch. It took him over a month to complete mine but is worth every penny. Enjoy the audio porn!

How much is that custom setup and where is it located in the car? can you take a pic of it mounted in the car bud?

It replaces the rear storage cubby compartment. I will take a photo of it mounted in the car after work this evening for you. Here is the link to the post over on renntech. He is a nice guy just ask. I don't know what he will charge. It was not cheap though. :)

Looks like most companies make shallow mount subs now days

Earthquake makes the thinnest ones at a 2 1/16 mount depth.

Should be able to get one of these behind the seat of the car I assume.
