I do know that if you change the tranny in a neon make sure you get the trannys computer from the car that it is coming out of or it wont shift right and the light will stay on.

I'm pretty damn happy with the way it sounds. Right now i have the tweeters aimed right at each other with reversed polarity for each one (read it works well somewhere) Do any of you sq gurus have any suggestions? since eventually i will be glassing my tweets into the a-pillars

Only if these tweeters are better for off axis rather than on axis. Reverse polarity would be a better question for Jeremy since he is an installer.

Yeah dude polarity is totally install and path length dependent. There really isn't a "this works better".

Your best bet is following my tuning tutorial in the FAQ. It will walk you through setting phase for the entire stereo.

You don't have to do it for the entire system, but it will give you the best results. That being said, just finding what phase alignment works best for your tweeters can make a pretty big difference.

There is no reason to treat a panel 100 percent 25 percent is enough to properly deaden sheet metal. adding extra deadner doesn't do a damn thing.

finally got some carpet on the box, and a gasket for the sub makes it look much better.

Now the plan is to mount the 2500D somewhere and more importantly, make me louder! Obviously the first plan is to seal off the sub from the trunk, but right i have no $ for glass, but once i do i want to be able to remove the box easily, so i gotta figure out a way to seal it effectively and be able to just pull it out.
