my roommate has had his old subs sittin in our basement for close to 2 years and i was thinkin of installing them in my car since he doesnt plan on using them again. would save a lot of money if i can just use his old ones but will they have problems if they have just been sittin there for 2 years and not been used since?
also wat is the cheapest way to get subs installed? i dont think i know anyone who has done it themselves who can help

They should be fine. If you have any knowledge of wiring/automotive it's pretty simple.
I installed all of my stuff just browsing online for a while.

How's the foam on edges look? You'll probably need to get it replaced but that's going to be the only issue
