DJ-

Certainly. These were just rough quick pics I grabbed at the shop today. The car is getting detailed the next few days and then we are doing a full shoot and I'll have plenty of pics from various angles, and you can see the rest of the system install.

Wow, Patrick that looks great. The guys who wanted to do an enclosure for me were going to take up the entire footwell. I like your setup a lot.

Yes, these include the sub itself. This is a calculated enclosure volume, and did not take up the entire footwell because it is fiberglassed to gain a lot of volume from the irregularities in the floor.

Like I said, I will have more pics of the install once we do the actual photo shoot this week.

Looks pretty good so far! The box in my passenger footwell isn't angled in the corner like that.. and I still haven't looked into filling that space. I'm thinking about finding a decent amp to run all of the speakers that will allow me to tweak the sound stage (crossover), with good power, but not TOO much.



Dang PO ripped out the sub, and tore up the 'face plate' that was over that enclosure. I still haven't measured the diameter of the hole...

I am running mine off an Audison LRX giving it 300 watts. For a "normal" car install (my car is a showpiece for a high end audio shop) something around 150 WPC would be great, and you could look into a small amp from JL, Zapco, etc. Call the shop with details, and yes we'll have pics after the shoot.
