Hey everyone,

I'm planning on starting my build on my wife's car throughout the summer and want to build a SQ system in her car.This is what I have to work with. I'm skilled in carpentry and know a bit a bout fiberglassing. I'll try and post some pics later to get a visual about the build.

FRONT

3-4" front speakers deep into the windshiled (you know the kind)

6.5" door pod openings There is room for a tweet mount above the 6.5".

Rear Door

6.5" door pod opening. I could also find a stealthy place for a tweet here also.

Rear Deck

6x9" opening

I was thinking of installing AA POLY's in the 6.5 openings in the front and rear doors. As far a tweeters, I'm open to suggestions. I do like the Vifa XT25's that Chad uses with his HT setup. I can't mount anything in the A-pillars because the air bags are in my way. I'm not sure what to do, if anything with the opening deep in the windshield. I would like to have the soundstage up around my ears, this is why I mentioned the A-pillar thing.

As far as the rear deck, I was thinking of installing a pair of 8" Assasins in a sealed box blowing into the cab. I would like to get at least a 10" in there, but dont' know if I have room for that. I really don't know if I want a box in the trunk so to speak.

So what do you guys think? Throw some ideas at me. All your help will be appreciated. :fing34::thanx:

Not sure yet.

Head Unit. I may try and keep it factory, which means I would need the Cleansweep, 3Sixty, or the AudioControl DQL-8. A single DIN unit would look quite odd in that opening.

Amps-I'm gonna try and keep the Zed look going, If not, I may try the Sundown amps that this forum seems to like.

What is the process of sealing a trunk for an IB setup. I've never done it before and also, what are the pros and concs of that kinda setup for a substage.

SQ is the pro, the con is the work to seal the trunk off and potentially less output as it will be easier to overdrive the subs. Of course, you will need less power as well. The other major pro is the amount of space that the system won't take up.

Seriously considering IB with the 3 MAWs (maybe 4)... Not going to cut into the rear deck, so a mini "box" to use to hang them from would be in the works. That would free up all kinds of room for amplifier mounting & junk in the trunk.
