I have 2000 max with the Bose system, I didn't like the bose woofer because it rattles when i play trance music, so I am interesting in putting 2 12" woofers and a amp in the trunk, any recommandation???

I have the same setup as you do. What i would recommend is to disconnect the Bose Sub, and have a shop run a separate amp with as many sub's you need. Me personnaly, i have a single JL audio sub, being run by an alpine V12 amp. Makes a world of a difference.

You can run an amp and subs from the Bose head unit with no problems?

I have an amp with 1 10" running off the Bose headunit with no problem at all. I believe there is some adapter being used. One key thing i would suggest is, go to a reputable shop instead of fly by night shop. I've had cut and hack jobs done before in my previous cars. My 2 Cents

Hmmm....
I still have my whole system sitting in boxes from my VW 3 cars ago. Maybe I could put my Fosgate amp and subs to use...

I have a kicker 360 amp with 2 solo baric 12" speakers. It rattles the whole back end of the car. Even after i spent 800 dollars to get the trunk filled with dynomat. I am disapionted. My old 96 trans am didn't rattle at all. Just be prepared for alot of rattling if you do put some woofers in your trunk.

Most rattles I have heard are the rear licence plate (mind you nissan onygave us two screw holes) try holding down the Licence plate with the volume tured up.

If i turn the volume up to about thirty on my kenwood stereo with the windows up it sounds like metal is rattling inside the car. Almost like it is the back panel between the back seats and the window. I have my licence plate where it doesn't rattle. With the windows down it seems to releave some of the rattling. It sucks. You would not beleieve how bad it rattles. I have a sealed box maybe a bandpass would make less rattling.

Unlees you port it through the opening in the rear deck where the bose sup is you will have more bass and a louder rattle.

or.. do what i did. sealed box, fire subs into the cabin and seal the cabin off from the trunk

and at first I had SO MUCH rattling coming from the rear.. It did turn out to be the license plate. I thought it was the tail lamps, the trunk liner, the rear deck.. nope. it was the license plate area. Just about all the rattle is gone now... or my bass is just overpowering it now.. which is good for me.

i got dynamat put underneath the license plate. Makes a world of difference but still a lot of rattle coming from somewhere else. I also have one 15(which i'm getting rid of due to the World of Wheels Show in February), that rattles the whole car.

What type of wheels do you have?

17" Konig Villains.

Put a scrap piece of mat on the licence plate first! Then, take the rear shelf piece off (the piece between the window and back seat).Notice how stiff that board is? Notice the metal below it. That's your rattling. Mat the deck and that board, bye bye rattle. Max is a great car, build is good, if you want to hear rattles, drive a pontiac.

nice work on the car. I like it. How much trunk space do you have now? Is the spare tire usable?
