Realy stupid Idea

Ok I am thinking about cutting out the area behind the rear arm rest and mounting a 8" L7 in a sealed box atached to the back of the seat. So the actual woofer is visible(sitting in between the seats). Any input?

I have a feeling you wouldn't be the first. Stuff like this has been talked about before.

The first time I saw those subs, a few years ago now, I new it would be tossed in almost every cars armpit. It would be fairly easy to do. Unbolt the steal sheet, maybe cut it out a little larger, and build a box right on the backside.

I'll take your 8" and raise you a pair of 12s.

Matt that is exactly what I would do if I was going with larger subs.
I mean actualy squeezing the square 8 right into the gap....think of it as top mounted onto the seat back. sorry I dont have photo shop

yeah, I know what you mean.. just thought I'd post that pic for ya..

it wouldn't be too hard to do.. I had to modify the back seat a bit to make it work, but nothing scary.

I'll tell you one thing

YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That's the best way to put the sub, sealed, so the bass is only in the car, not in the trunk.
TRUST me, do it, whithout hesitating. Image Dynamics helped me with this idea!
