hotshot27 Posted May 25, 2008 Report Share Posted May 25, 2008 (edited) I installed my friends 2 12" kicker comps in a memphis pre-fab box with about 400 rms for the pair and all I can say is good luck stopping the trunk rattle if you point the subs back. I measured about a 6 cubic foot for the max, the trunk isn't just enormous, but the opening is pretty much the whole trunk so it's easy to slide a big box in. Since it has fold down seats [i'm pretty sure] you could seal it from the trunk with port and sub facing front. depends if you want to focus on SQ, if not then just dont worry about it and slap a big box in there and point subs and port back. Since you still want to use your trunk somewhat, I would go with either sub up port forward, or sub and port forward with about a 4 cube box and the 15" Edited May 25, 2008 by hotshot27 Quote Current Setup: Factory HU with LOC mids/highs-Insignia components Sub- E8 in bass tube Amp- sae-1200d Show Setup: HU-Sony MEX-1HD (brings massive respect for sony) fronts - Infinity Kappa perfect comps rears- Infinity Kappa coax mid/high amp - Autotek 5600 Subs - 2 RE SE 15's Sub Amps - 2xSAE-1200D Box - 5cubes sealed Wire- Lots of Knu 1/0 SECOND SKIN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChevyBoy Posted May 26, 2008 Report Share Posted May 26, 2008 you wont be the first to be bumping. go to 8thcivic.com. im sure someone there will help you out. ive seen a few nice setups in these over there. and for the tail lights. http://www.testors.com/catalog_item.asp?itemNbr=1243 either that one or another one they have. im too lazy to go get the can. i put about 6 coats on, then finished it off with some krylon touch guard gloss clear coat. i never buffed them which is why they arent that shiny, but im real life they match my rims. which are btw 17s.
