B4SSB0Y Posted July 5, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2010 Lookin great! I love the way the subs are facing. Funny story on that, my tape measure tip messed up and all measurements were 1/8th too large so the boxes wouldnt fit between the strut towers without alot of force. They fit tight like this and I loved the way they looked, actually gained me nearly a half DB on the TL from flat facing and sounds alot louder to the ear this way. I should really get back outside and do some more sanding on the door pods but its about 95 out today so I take lots of breaks Quote Car - 99 Neon Sport Batt - 1 Redtop up front On 200A Excessive Amperage alt Sub - 2 12" Kicker L7's in ~2 cuft @ 36hz each on a Xtant X1001 @ 1 ohm Front Highs/Mids - JVC CS-FS6 and Infinity 6022i on Xtant A2002 Rear Highs/Mids - None HU - Pioneer DEH-P8600MP 1/0 wire ran thru entire car aswell as big3 DB - 144.5 @ Dash.
