[QUOTE="HoneyBadgerRy, post: 8627367, member: 667692"] Those photos are with the top down, the factory places glove boxes in a big plastic shroud in that space above the fuel pump access and the space besides it. It should be plenty of space for something modest. (Although I've heard the hardtops have less room) I've heard of people drilling a hole to run wires into the trunk, but its very debated how well it sounds to place a subwoofer back there. Those bass shakers sound very gimicky. I prefer the idea of a low profile sub box combo, or a powered (or two) sub where the factory cubbies used to be, but not sure how much volume that will be. My last setup had 200 rms per door in the front and 1000 rms to a sealed dayton 12" in a suv, and it defiantly wasn't overpowering the speakers. I feel like 320rms per door would be to much for a measly say 250 rms you would get from one of those low profile subwoofers (of course sensitivity and surface area plays an important role). Has anybody use a CDT Audio Minimax 400? My dad just upgraded from a blaupunkt to the minimax and keeps talking about how good it is, but his blaupunkt was pretty lack luster (150rms low profile 8").
