its that metal frame that gets in the way,grr. But all is good.
Its better than the parcel shelf aswell, cause it aint so easy for theives to nick and is positioned almost out of obvious sight.
Need anymore help, just holla

Sorry to hijack :oops:

@ randall, why shouldnt you bother with 6x9`s if youve got a sub? ive heard this a few times but never understood why :? :oops:

Ive got 6x9 four way`s and a 12" sub and it sounds ok :? im gonna get some components for the front aswell, thats how ive always done it and it always sounds great 8)

Cheers

sounds good dude, make sure you put everything back securley, ie everything is cliped into place, cause u can hear a slight vibration if not.
But all is good when its done.
Yeah took the panel completly out of the car, marked it up, then used a jig saw.

heres my polo......Needed some extra noise up front so....Lobbed Pioneer 320watt 6x9s in a custom passenger foot-well box. Sounds Class actually. I was kinda expecting it to sound bad. Let me know what you think.... its easily done....

GO GO GADGET POLO :lol:

That thing is loaded up to the rim mate! Not a bad idea with the 6x9s but could also get some more 6.5" comps up front making some kick panels out of fibreglass in the foot wells :D

Ye just thought I would try something different tho as I had never seen 2 6x9s pointing up outa there before. Plus my bro had them sittin boxed and never used in the attic so got them cheapish (free)! ha!
