hello there...I have a 1991 Maxima GXE...and in the back it has an armrest in the middle, when you fold it down...there is a peice of cardboard/plastic seperating the back seat from the trunk...so with my fine carpentry skills i cut a hole in this...looks very nice...and now all i have to do is cut a hole in the wall carpet in the trunk...and ive seen pictures of peoples subs facing inward goin thru this whole...does anyone have a setup like this? also...if you read the "something in the trunk" thread...i have one of those that i guess ill need to remove...no cords on mine tho...also there is a silver bar going across in my trunk that blocks the lower half of my whole...does anyone know what this is for? can it be cut/removed? thanks for any input/pictures

 

yeah my armrest opens up to my trunk. but i didn't cut anything, i simply took out that plastic liner and that cardboard thingy. i then took that cardboard and shaped it into a 'U' shape and installed it back so it'll cover that unsightly metal bracket that goes across the seat. kinda hard to explain. i'll see if i can get some pics up.

 

I did it too. I cut the colored cardboard and took a cutting knife to the trunk carpet and now it looks nice, and i can put my hokcey sticks from the trunk. Not having to bring it in the cabin.

 

OOh, nice idea about the hockey sticks...I have a new project

 

What I did...is i took out that cardboard/plastic peice and cut out like the top half of that...but i need a good way to cover that metal bar to make it look good...any ideas? PICS PLEASE!

 

can anyone actually answer my first questions?

 

the bar is support for the rear seat. It can be removed. I have had mine off for about a week now. I am trying to do the same thing as you. I have been driving around town with no back seat.

 

here's how mine look like. no need to remove bar or anything. yeah it looks kinda stupid, but at least that bar is covered.

 

nice, never thought about that, give me more mountin options for my system. oh just thouhgt about something though, i think ill go ahead nd put me some components in there. maybe do some bondo work and make a lil custom enclosure for the components.

 

put some components where?

 

lol u guys are funny - DUDE BUT the carpet linner and get it over with - nice pic , Fosgate Fan, not hating or anything like that but looks kinda ghetto.

 

I have a box with 2 15 inch JLs with a plexiglass window between the arm rest. You can see the inside of the box and it has 2 neon lights in it to illuminate it at night. I had 1 15 firing forward in the armrest hole, but I wanted more bass, so I put 2 in. I'll upload pics if you want.

 

haha yeah it looks kinda stupid but it works. at least the unsightly metal bar is covered plus the bass got a way to vent into the cabin

 

nigfink if you can id like you to post those...i was thinkin about gettin a bandpass box with 2 12s and some green neons!

 

or you could just leave the whole thing in place and let the bass travel through the seats, that is how I have mine setup with my 12" rockford. Why look in the dark trunk?

 

ok im cuttin up my carpet lining right now...and im gonna use the stuff i cut out to cover the bar and sides...it looks tight

 

cneary thats why you get cool lookin neons!

 

Thats cool But I don't want to look inside my trunk, it is scarry in there Between all my tools, my floor jack, my sub, and my turnout gear, it looks quite a mess

 

i don't see a dark trunk. i see my amp

 

well im gonna put my box right up to my hole...so all you'll see are the subs

 

I built my box to fit perfectly into the trunk, it is angled the same as the seat and you can't see any wires in the install. I will take pics tomororw and post.

 

I just finished covering the support bar...its not completely done but almost. http://www.cardomain.com/memberpage/454290
its at the bottom of the 1st page

 

see im not a kind of guy that likes or listens to stuff with heavy bass so im prolly just gonna get a single low wattage ten in my trunk, but i would like to have some components in there insted of the 6x9's that rattle in the deck, then again might just keep those, but im a retard so whatever

 

looks good so far

 

in your car, yes
