Maybe I am just a little slow today but I still do not follow. Where does the subwoofer exactly go? On the floor?

On a more serious note, the sub would be small such as an 8" which doesnt need much air space in the box. I have one in my car which no one even notices. Super small and compact.

P.S. For all these posts im doing for you the least you can do is post some picture of your "ASSistants"

Here's a stupid question...

I think my stereo sounds awesome !

Is there any way to tell if my speakers are still "stock" without taking off the grills ?

My ipod is hardwired to the factory stereo, and I have never listened to the radio or a CD in the car, but I doubt the ipod alone would account for the superior sound.

I do have the premium audio package ( non Bose ) in my '99.

Any thoughts ?

I believe I have a picture of Reus's subwoofer setup in my thread here:

It doesn't take up the whole passenger footwell.

one thing the stereo shop isnt telling you is that convertibles are notorious for not so great sound when it comes to stereos, the rag top doesnt help the sound move well in the cab. Plus i think its not a good idea to spend 3-4k on a stereo system. do something more productive with you money rather than buying a stereo that wil loosen all your bolt and clips of your interior.

Yes, that link is exactly what I wanted to see.

I do not want to keep the original head though since there is no Ipod hookup. I wonder how weird it will look with an aftermarket head in it????
