Those look like some old Kicker Solobarics?

Three 10's.... nice! Balance that suspension and go for it!
( if you don't mind losing your trunk space )

37 minutes to change your oil?
Did you take a nap in there somewhere ???

I guess I shouldn't bag on you too hard, lotsa folks don't even change their own oil.

Yes!

I used to have a 97 Tacoma I got those woofers in 1999 so 10 years at least.

I still have love for the older Solo "D"s. Fun little woofs. I used to run two 15" Solo "D"s.

Would you put them in your Yaris?

Now? One on one with the mille? Not a chance. That being said, there is a price difference as well.

It's 3:36 am, I'm still at work )o:

I'm tired of the noise coming from the left front door and left side of fire wall / under Pilot's area floor too.

I need to make some time and get this areas done ASAP (I wish, I'll try)

Buying cables for BIG 3, tomorrow at a local Car Audio store.

A casual shot the other day after work...

Fantastic thread...As soon as the bank finalizes my loan on my new 2010 hatchback, I'll be using this as a reference to do something similar this summer!

Can't wait

Yes I would like to try and swap the rear OEM springs for a test, yes the box+subs it's around 100 lbs or more (another model in my car )

The mids are really nice, pictures make no justice, besides they are smaller than what you see on the pictures and they are very light. Thanks!

TALKING ABOUT POCKET SPEAKERS...

.

I guess I've been working too much, I need a break, I need to work on my car! I need to get some sleep!!! at this point I don't want to see more plans

Ok, so I finished the front left door, the best door I did from all 4 doors. I put enough MAT to make it work like a speaker box for the 6.5 mid-bass and also I was able to apply a full layer of MLV, so it's in good shape, I have more MAT that I'm going to apply to the right front door and will try to put a full layer of MLV. The door is now very quiet!

Now I now why I was not capable of putting a full layer of MLV on the door... since I had the panel of the door for several days laying in my garage against the wall, at an angle, the panel it self bet a little bit over time, when I try to put it back it was poping out, the same thing with the left door, but the day after I put it back with a full layer of MLV I didn't close it and let it sit for a while in the sun... after that was really easy to put back together.

So if you are going to do it over the weekend or spend more than 2 days, lay down your panels flat on the floor, do not put them against a vertical surface, they will change shape and will no help to put it back together. If you can have a door done in the same day.

2cts.

Here I'm installing a layer of MLV under the Pilot's area, up a little bit the Fire Wall.

This is where I'm holding the MLV to the floor...

More MLV towards the pilot's seat...

Used some MAT to hold the MLV in place...

Rug back in place, ready to put the seat back!

This morning commute... AWESOME!
