Thanks Gman, looks great.

I didn't realize that was your setup, I've seen it all over the boards.

Was it hard to get the cover out to make the cut? I'm really thinking about it since I have the trunk torn apart.

I took a dremel, a steady hand, and carefully cut the top tray while in the car. Taking it out from what i've heard is a huge PIA. I just had the top up, ran a dremel and guessed.

If I were to do it again i'd get a small tooth hole saw and use that.

It would have made a perfect shape and would have been much easier. The dremel was messy and less than accurate. But the in cabin bass is much better with the hole, oddly enough, even with the top down.

I have since changed subs. I now have a Diamond Audio Sub. Much better than the Phoniex Gold you see pictured.

Chiung's knowledge is considerable.


I like it. NO I know what to buy when I decide to do that to mine. My car is undercoated and I have a lot of fiberglass style insulation whichs works well but I will change it someday.

Well... It's finally all done, and it's sounds awesome IMO.
Thanks to Andy over at 2nrwerks for the professional tweaks.

I do have a small vibration from the tray I need to work on, 1 matchstick should fix it.

My dumb ass forgot to take pictures during the final install, but here are some final pics.





XtremeMac Nano holder.




Added a second ground for good measure.


I was originally going to flush mount the front tweets in the doors, but after thinking about it,
and hearing other stock ones, I decided to mount them on the pillars. Soooo much better, glad I did it.
