the carpet i believe u can get from most car shops as in halfords c.a.r etc. they should do they spray adhesive to. or u can normally get carpet spray adhesive from most if not all diy stores. u can always then use blue tacks (small nails with slightly bigger heads) not clout nails, and use them to nail the left over material on the underneath the board. thats how i do and it works great

I've got the MX12 D2 wired to 1ohm and getting 1500w RMS which is what it's rated at. I'd love to give it 2000 RMS though :twisted:

RE are still distributing, they're sold through Car Audio Direct or you can go through Blade Ice who are the European Distributors of RE Audio, you can get them on 01908 610441.

Yeh tom i defintely did want that one, but i just couldnt stretch my budget that far i'm afraid :( This one should do the job, i'm not after a competition install......Just a better than average install, which i know this will be.....just need to get the wiring kit and deadening and it will be cracked on with :D

Is it the SE you've got Phil? I had the newer version and that did the job nicely off 450w RMS.

I'd love to give mine more really, think I'll need a better battery at some point too!
