Components:
Speakers:

Enclosure was designed for me by Pete at Audio Dynamics.
He did a great job. It hits low and flat.

My single rear seat is gone to make room for the sub.

I built the enclosure. Didnt do too bad. Hard to cut perfectly straight.

These Sonys were $150 for awhile at sonic. Crazy price.

I figured I would try it since it won some amp shootout and it is cheap.

Sound treatment:
Secondskin! I did the entire floor except under the center console. It is not easy to remove and since full coverage is not needed, I said screw that.

I did the back wall too... and both side walls where the seat belts mount.
