I have three remotes (HU, Monitors, DVD player), a large screwdriver, several smaller ones in a small kit, some Advil, some fuses, lotion, a couple of pens, one of my wife's eyeliners, and a few other things . That little bit of storage space comes in handy .

Thats a pretty cool idea, it would be cool to "add" to a setup but no way its going to take place of nice substage IMO.

Some CD's, gum (probably melted), 2 pens, 1 Glock (sometimes), multihead screwdriver, pliers, fuses, some wires, elec tape, wire crimps, jb weld, 2 matchbooks, 1 lighter, 3 razorblades, 1 knife, eye drops, advil & tylenol samples (variety ) some loose change, hell im good to go, lol

it Complements the Bose system well, however it leaves a little to be wished for in the sound pressure department, I will post a few more pictures later this morning

Front or rear?

Front: EZPass, Ipod wire, and currently some trunk liner clips.

Rear: nothing, my seats actually fold down

nope, just like it says.. armrest. The cd's and dvd's aren't in thier cases (that might explain the scratches ) That leaves space for my 2 remotes and extra garbage...Reciepts are in the upper part of the arm rest. My trunk however....

You need a sub that supports "Infinite Baffle" it msut be mounted verry well, and the better sealed the trunk the better you will get (less cancel of back and front waves),

I like the way mine soudns, however if you want ALOT more power (to make ur fat jiggle) a 11Ov.2 Elemental 10" sub(up to 900watts RMS) in Infinite Baffle mounted on the speaker deck (it will barly fit, take extra specal care in measurments) would do well
Elemental Designs makes great Infinite Baffle Subs, you can call them up and chat with there techs and get there input on youre issue (319.665.6350 they love to talk to people i think there lonly)

FYI they also sell there subs on ebay for a little less

i see i see, well it is because i have 2 12's right now....big box too much weight in the trunk. i'm kinda over LOUD bass...i want simple sound quality and low deep bass...i have an average knowledge of audio, but wanted some opinons from people that have a setup like yours before i start buying stuff.... i plan on adding a sub like yours (8inch) in my rear deck....in place of the old bose one and making that whole back dead. and doing the trunk shocks to make it more sealed....thanks for the phone number i think ill call them up over the summer.

does anyone know how the rear deck can be modified?? Can you just use tin snips and make the hole bigger to accomodate a bigger sub?

Yep, that pretty much covers it. Although it is suggested to make an MDF baffle for your sub.

Mini Mag lite, Leatherman, a few cds, a few pennies, cell phone charger cord, iPod when I'm not at the gym, sometimes a box of rounds for the .40.

Pretty much any random crap that I don't want seen and don't have a better place for.

It's a piece of wood that you use as a mounting ring for the sub, only since it's replacing a square hole, it is that shape on the outside.
