Fawk, how much were your kick's? I hate feeding wire through door jam's!

I'm happy with the comps. I just used Qlogic kicks and tried to beef them up. I made a back for them and then put a bunch of dampener on the backs.

I really was trying to go for decent sound and very easy to remove when i sell.

I've been happy enough with the set up that i havent changed it in two years of a 5 day a week 140 mile a day commute //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

i really dont remember how much the kicks were. Probably not too much.

i put the xover in the back.. right under the amp.. cuz its a single xover system. well, i guess its not, but both xovers are in a single unit.

Well I suppose i will pick up those Q form Kick's, I hope it will sound decent... some Next DLS 6's, tt2300 to power those, TRF 15" in some sort of hybrid T-line, and a single saz1500 to start... Of course the bass will sound like butt, but I can always turn that off if i want to "listen" to music. I also picked up a 13Ov.2 that I can throw in when I feel like...

i don't think yours had the factory body kit like mine...so probally reason in extra cost.....on mine

That is because I didn't want that goofy kit on it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

I like the look of the SES with the go! Well mine is more go than the regular ST, but you get the point. Sleeper!

Well it wasn't a new car, it was the same year as mine, it just had less miles... 37K less....and a lot less options...
But i mean come on, 50K total, in all highway miles, isn't that bad. Besides if an 06 only has 13K, you know that most of them were city miles.

Personally, i'd rather have a car with a couple more miles and a lot more options, for $1000 less.

Just me... and apparently her as well. She is trying to return it, but i don't think she will get anywhere with that..

Oh well in that case, yeah I would take your car as well. I thought you said she bought it new.

Nope, same year as mine, just a S model with NO options, instead of an SES with a lot of options... and the privilege of having crank up windows cost an extra $1000 bucks!
