Picked up a new (to me) car last month and couldn't make it a month with just a stock stereo. I didn't want to cut up the car since it's so new, and I didn't want to throw a ton of weight in the trunk or lose the ability to use the trunk for storage. Cleanness was also the name of the game for this install, it's not crazy clean, but good enough for me :good:

Solution I came up with:

DC LVL 3 12" with full carbon fiber package (for looks only, I know)

Hertz HDP1 Amplifier

Custom harness built for a LOC

Knukonceptz RCA/power/speaker wire

Fiberglass box roughly 1 cubic foot

First some pics of the car from a trip up a mountain that I did with some bikes

2011 BMW 335i Sedan with BMW's performance edition package (bumps HP and Torque by roughly 30 each through a computer tune)

Harness and LOC into stock amp

"Industrial strength" velcro, it seriously is ridiculously strong for velcro

Amp positioned good enough without having to cut stuff and I still have access to everything

going over rms = smaller box, under rms = bigger box...

Low voltage doesn't blow amps. That's a myth.

A router that does the sub holes makes rounded edges also?

Stock battery ground in the trunk is convenient

Running along stock wiring FTW

That feeling when everything works on the first try

Sub box bolted in place. Didn't get pictures but essentially I poked small holes in the carpet and ran metal strapping across the back of the carpet for rigidity/strength then rubber gasket/washer/nut inside the box.

Full CF sub cause if I'm only doing 1 sub might as well be pretty

Thanks man, the wiring is Knukonceptz 4 gauge OFC, it's about a 20 inch run and is likely overkill, but good stuff!

nice car bud

Thanks!

That is perfect!!! Great Job

Small, but good enough...for now :ph34r: doors and stock subs might get some upgrades

love the simple clean stuff like this nice ride

Thank you!
