My friend's sister has a 2001 Durango with the Infinity system. The front doors have been replaced with Fosgate Power coaxials but the tweets back doors and deck are stock. The tweets are alright but the rear woofers are shot for sure. She wants us to do a little work to it but she hauls a lot of stuff around so we can't take up much space, preferably no space. Here is what we had in mind:

-coaxials in back door, 2 new pairs tweets (already figured out)

-some sort of small downfire box in front of the middle of the 2nd row seat (right behind the center console from the front row) that will be inline with the top of the seat cushion. Still unknown for sub/amp.

-stock source unit for now

Any opinions on this? She isn't looking for huge bass, she listens to rock music so the sub is more for kickdrums than anything.

Budgetwise we are looking to get it done as cheaply as possible, she isn't exactly loaded with cash lol. I'm not sure about dimensions but I am thinking nothing bigger than a 10, maybe an 8 or even a 6.5.

We were playing with the idea of attaching the amp to the side of the box and making a top piece with cupholders as well. Obviously the MDF will be sealed in some way if we do the second part. Would it be okay to use a waterproof deck sealer on it?

It is likely that the sub will not come for awhile. We are for sure doing the doors soonish though. Anyone got any tips for these beasts?

Also, anyone know where the factory amp is? We couldn't find it anywhere!

Too many projects, too little time...

the new sundown 8s that are coming out look pretty good and you can pre order them for a nice price

Once or twice I have missed having a back seat / rear hatch, but all in all people love to see a walled vehcile. It just screams "i'm not fucking around with my setup, im loud"

Looking at it now and seems like it would do pretty well, also looking at their reconed BM10's. I am waiting to hear what my buddy thinks about them right now.

Do you think they would do OK downfire? guess you could consider this a cheap SQ setup.
