Are they 5 1/4 or 6 1/2 coaxes that fit in the doors? I may have something laying around that I'd send to you for the cost of shipping, I'd have to check tho.

About the enclosure. Could you get a shallow mount sub, and mount the enclosure on the rear deck? (similar to an IB setup, but it would have an enclosure, and you're not actually using the rear deck. These rear decks do tend to fall apart after a while, so they're not good candidates for IB setups, unless you want to full deaden the whole thing, top and bottom.) That's hidden away, and doesn't block anything important, and still leaves trunk space.

98's I believe are 4x6, 99's I believe are 5.25's.

Check out GA Owner's Club Forum. I use to post there all the time.

EDIT : Nope, my friend had kick panels, not stock locations. 4x6 on all, I guess?

Low e Red thx for info man. well guy's went and picked up the car 2day for my girl and did some detailing also i went pulled out the old audio wiring which by the way was horrible the ground was in there was like no lie 3ft long lol. but i went and ran the 4awg klm knu wire and then hid it underneath carpet so when she look's in trunk like nothing is there. well onto the pics guys.

Here is a shot of the ride when i first got it. Man this trunk is trashed. but not when i'll be done with it.





How the inside was it was trashed.



Started running the new power wire(knukonceptz KLM 4awg)//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif. also not i was still detailing the interior while i was running the wire.

Trunk finally all cleaned out but wait...........where is the power wire hmmmm.....it's hidden underneath carpet now so if my girl uses her trunk she doesn't ask what the wire is for i think ahead.

After a nice wash to her new ride(looks so much better) haven't even done wax yet lol).



Another angle letting it dry off in the sun after i was done shaming it down.



After the coat of wax/clay bar i used by meguiar's was used
