Hi All,

I have upgraded my front speakers successfully but there are still a little too tinny i need bass

I had a JL audio W7 in the boot but box was too big and sick of it using up all the boot space,

I am after puttin 8" sub in the rear doorcard anybody know if it will work ? also would i need an amp to power the sub ?

or could anybody recommend some speakers that will have a bit of punch to them

Cheers

I ran decent components with a amp all the way around and a few ppl who got in it thought i had a sub in the boot, amp makes a big difference.

You can install a 8" sub in the rear panel (doorcard area) but it will to be built into a fibeglass enclosure and the panels must be sound deadened. Ive been thinking about doing something like this for ages but not got round to it. The sub will need to be amped too.

Which front speakers did you get?
