edit: better yet, skip the re sub and use my 13w1v2... only issue is gettin gthe volume of the box right.

You may want some fleece or some old t shirts if you plan on shaping the box around a trim ring.

Personally I prefer old t-shirts. I've just had much better luck with thinner materials. Problem I've had with thicker materials is that I get NO penetration all the way through when I apply the resin.

Definately Kickpanels. If I remember right the factory speakers are mounted low in the doors. Bad Place For Speakers. A good set of kickpanels will really make a difference in the sound of your car
