I guess I am "too old" to understand the new sound systems..   My little Pontiac, has a basic am/fm/cd player and 4 speakers, and it is more than enough, for me... I can't run it full volumne!.Dont know, what I would do with a woofer (dog) tweeter (bird) bass(fish) subs (Subway)..   I cant imagine, why anyone, would install the "stuff', and those stupid cheap boxes, they make  on Unique Whips, and wreck  the usable space in the vehicle..  If the sound system is "loud" at 1 out of 10, where do you run it at 7,8,9,10?   Forgive me expressing my opinion.. I came from a period of time, when a single rear speaker was a "big deal"  And I already said I was old  lol  

Carl you come from a time when computers didnt exist but you've adapted... useable space in vehicles? i dont take my beaumont to home depot to pick up 2x4s so i dont have a lot of need for useable space!hahaha! I havent had a stereo in my car in probably 7 years, i like the sound of the car and i dont drive it too often... I agree with you carl, i'm not into loud systems at all, a nice sounding system is a treat though, and you need the right components to do that... think of it like an engine in a car, you can make a crappy motor loud, but it doesnt make power, make real power however and the loud comes with it!hahaha!

Loud when i'm back home i can send you a pic of the enclosures i made for the kick panels, the install didnt require any mods and was quite invisible, but i did miss having the air from the kickpanels though...

        Actually, I come from the days, of AM radio  I like the sound system ,that came in my Ventura II.. dash unit, and 4 speakers.  I dont understand the big JLC this, and that, that Will Castro, sticks in all the SUV'S he works on.  Those big woolfers, and such are like sticking a cardboard tube down your pants, to show you have the "goods"   I guess I will never understand, why the cars, have to have the ability to sound loud several miles away    Nothing any worse than a 2500.00 car with a 4000.00 sound system!!   I know I won't win this conversation  lol

AMEN!

I drove my new car in Sept    

You can put the front speakers in brand new molded kick panels sold on ebay and the rear in the convertible top bucket trims. You just need to get your head wrapped around cutting the original parts. They do sell brand new ones if you don't want to cut the originals. The sub can go in the trunk because it doesn't matter. Mounting it to the back of the seat at a angle works better. I just put my stereo in a pod under the dash above the front of the console with quick disconnects, because I use one stereo for many cars. It can also be removed for car shows. Tweaters can be pre-wired under the chrome window gasket trim and mounted with double sided tape to the pillar. All amps are on covered plywood for quick disconnects in the trunk so they can be used in multiple cars.

Your making me hungry. Quit talking about food!
