LOL Reminded me of when I went to put in my comp. Thought 6.5's would be a direct replacement and had to do a ton of modifying to get them in. Well worth it though.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Whats the length of both amps? I ended up putting a board across both seats to allow me to put a couple amps side by side for awhile. I now have my Atomic 5k there.

Once you start to get your box and batteries in you may find that there's only enough room for 1 2400 on each side of your trunk where it kicks out behind the brake lights.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

I've got lots to share about our particular GP'S. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/cool.gif.3bcaf8f141236c00f8044d07150e34f7.gif

Holla if you need anything!//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Oh yeah...invest in great foam and dynamat. You WILL need it. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/veryhappy.gif.fec4fed33b4a1279cf10bdd45a039dae.gif

Def. look forward to watching this unfold. Keep up the good work.

so i take it you have a GP? if so what year?

i was pissed about the 6.5's, but i will make my own baffles soon.

im not sure on the length of both amps but i know for a fact i can fit them both on both seats. maybe i will try what you say. the only reason i would like them on there individually so i could put the seats down individually.

and as far as the battery goes, i figured thats what i would have to do, not that big of an inconvienience. only problem is having to get a little extra wire, but compared to what else i bought for this, thats nothin.

if you have a gp, got any pics of your install?

Nice car! My aunt has the GTX with the paddle shifters in it and is a nice car, but under-powered. Must be a heavy fawker!

They do have a huge *** trunk, so I deffintley see no problem with you doing this Sundown setup. Nice equipment and progress looks good thus far. Good luck on the rest of it.

Also my aunt don't get 30mpg in here car or anything close to that. Hungry v8!
