just no...there is no reason to buy expensive shallow mounts like those because tbh. for example http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item%5F18212%5FPioneer-TS-SW3001S4.html. shallow mounts by nature are inferior quality so you may as well save yourself money instead of getting the most polished turd.

can you get exact measurements please? without exact depth/height/width measurements i can't figure out air space or mounting depth.


Uhhh ya gimme a few mins ill go out to the garage. Just getting outa bed lol

also how much road noise, engine noise, exhaust noise are you dealing with right now? might want to consider sound deadening material installation.

Road noise not much of an issue. Even no subs I can drown out the engine/ exhaust unless I hammer on it.

5.5" depth x 41" wide x 36" long

Not including the little side cubby holes that the stealth box uses

okay so that gives a little over 3.1 cubic feet of box space to deal with.

now with that much space you can possibly fit 4 10 inch subs in it running about 1200rms. if you want to do this then i'd need to know what your current mids/highs are because this will be loud enough to drown out basic speakers.

i should be able to google your cars alternator size but i might need you to check it yourself. it should have a label that telling you the amperage output.

I don't even wanna go that buck. More equivalent subs to compliment current speakers. It has the 6 speaker Bose system.

Thinking like 2 decent 10's

probably 2 of them would be fine then.

http://www.soundqubed.com/ monoblock amplifier q1-750

http://www.onlinecarstereo.com/CarAudio/p_25963_Pioneer_TS-SW3001S2.aspx 2 of these.

box should be

5 deep
41 wide
25 height
center divider

made from 5/8 inch MDF board. you can either get some fiberglass work done or just coat it in black bed liner if you don't want that carpet look.

editted because i accidentally linked 4 ohm subs not 2 ohm.

http://www.soundqubed.com/Q1-750-Amplifierp46.html since this link is probably not going to work just go to http://www.soundqubed.com/ then monoblock section and pick q1-750.

they handle 100rms watts more which lets you get a little more out of them. theres really no reason to choose 10s over the 12s in these models.

also edited prior post for the right subs version.

Thanks!

no problem. you might consider doing some support mods for your electrical system as well.

http://www.knukonceptz.com/productDetail.cfm?prodID=KCA-K4 wiring kit for amp i forgot to add to first post of stuff to buy.

if you want to do the big 3 upgrade you will need to buy some 1/0 gauge wire and probably new battery terminals for easier and cleaner install. the wiring and battery terminals can be found at the same place you buy that wiring kit from.

and if anyone tried to sell you a capacitor tell them no. they are for people who don't do the math on their electrical systems.
