I have not even looked at the spare yet, it's been such a whirlwind.. May want to before I go on a trip next week
Allegedly the cerwin vega 8's get right at it IB. Just the little vega series. A guy of FB has them, dunno if he is here, Dennis McCoy... Though about seeing if I can do some sort of manifold to cancel vibration on the deck but if I can get by with a solid 8 or 10 in the deck and well done transducers it would be ideal in keeping my trunk space up and weight down.
The JL stealthbox looks more an more tempting but it is UNGODLY expensive. These cars are affordable now, kids are buying them so it's a matter of time to wait till one is wrapped around a tree and grab the JL if anyone has bought one. There is a company that makes a nice custom box, but I lose the cabin pass. Gotta have the cabin pass.
Another thing I discovered is that you can actually fit amps behind the panels in the rear! A lot of people also do a custom hung amp rack.
As I dismantle the civic to only have audio, no ham radio, no fancy power supply, etc.. I'm completely embarrassed at the attention to detail that I put into that install.... Embarrassed that I probably could not do it again.
