thought I'd share with you guys... its awesome how the floor can be removed and there is a wheel well to work with, otherwise I'd lost all that cargo space with the audio equipment I wanted to put in there.
The equipment is pretty discrete as most of the time I have the cargo floor in place.

Nice install & choice of subs 'gabi'...what size are they? Is that a fiberglass enclosure they're mounted in? Is there anything mounted in the housing where the stock Boston Acoustics sub normally resides? Could you describe the rest of your components including the head unit? Does the 2nd amp power the door speakers or does each sub have its own dedicated amp? And finally, where is the spare tire located now? Sorry for the multiple queries...

I'm not sure of the exact specs on the boston system. I did demo a Patriot with the boston system and I would bet that with 2 JL 500/1's and a pair of W6's, it would drown out the factory spkrs.

2 JL W6's would be hella loud though. I had 2 12" JL W3v2's running 800w's in my civic and the Patriot with 600w's to 2 12" Focal's are much much louder with the hatch instead of a trunk.

If it was ME, I would run a single 500/1 and a single 12 W6 and get a JL 300/4 to either run the stock boston sprks or run new comps, that is my personal opinion though. Either way, solid choice in amps and subs.

That is sik! You just might have a money maker on your hands there. I bet alot of people would love to have that set up minus doing all the mod work, thats where you come in. :) . Again, good job!
