[sealw98 10+ year member]

What is the best way to get the bass out of my trunk, it has non-folding rear seats no ski pass and it doesn't really have any open areas in the rear deck lid. My car is a 1972 Pontiac GrandVille 2 dr ht thanks for any suggestions.

Put a tube from the top of your trunk through the rear passenger window. BAM! Bass from the trunk.

Yes I do have kids and I kind of wanted to make it look close to stock just in case I ever sold the car, the tube from the window sound interesting are we talking about makeing like a port in the rear deck lid?

yeah, just port your rear deck

Another idea is drill a ton of small holes/few larger holes in the rear deck and re-fabric it with color matched speaker grill.

So how do you port your back deck and keep in nice looking, next question is this going to increase the chances of me lossening the rear window, with the bass hitting against it?

I really doubt it'll break the glass. If it hasn't done it without the deck ports, it's not going to with them.

remove the rear carpet piece cut a square port in ur rear deck then either install the back piece or cut a hole in that too for even better results i did this on my 73 impala but i had the port connected to the sub encloosure i think ur car has a huge back deck too, i could put 6 6x9"s in mine and the port it was so big

careful cutting the hole though i would not use a jig saw cause the vibration might be too much for the seal on the rar window doubt it would break it, i used a jigsaw once on a 83 caddy i was porting the deck and adding holes for tweeters ended up the rear window seal came loose on the bottom and he had to get it re-sealed

aero ports thru the rear deck.. or take out rear fill speakers.. and ur worried about re-sale value if u cut the car, its a 72 for gooness sakes., unless its a show car i doubt many people will care

So how large should the port be? and excuse my ignorance, but what are areo ports?

I think aeroports are the circular looking long tubes.
