[QUOTE="Kevzaz, post: 4086154, member: 583598"] Ok, so I am completely new to this stuff. I did install my head unit, but thats easy... right? Now, a new challenge. Installing subs. I am planning on getting this. [URL="http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/shop/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=156"]http://www.soundsolutionsaudio.com/shop/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=156[/URL] (Opinions on those subs would be very nice) Now, next step... A box. I saw this box on the internet... [URL="http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&Partnumber=260-648"]http://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&Partnumber=260-648[/URL] Now, should I build my own? This would be a new experience for be due to the fact I never build anything bigger than a wooden tool box for my dad when i was 7 years old. =P Also, I don't really know much about the dimensions and stuff you guys are talking about, its like a foreign language to me. 'Enclosure recommendation is: 0.75 - 1.0 ft^3 sealed on the 12" 1.75 - 2.25 ft^3 @ 30 - 35 Hz Ported on the 12"' I understand its .75 feet cubed but what dimensions (width height depth) would be best? I want to hear great boom boom and still keep quality. Next is the wiring... I have a 2005 pontiac vibe with the stock sub and amp in it still. The sub is located in the trunk (where I want to put the new sub) the the passenger side. The amp is under the passenger seat. Would these wirings be a good place to start? Or should I scrap the whole idea and start fresh? The problem is I don't really know how to get the wires underneath the floor and all that. I don't know what wire goes where. Etc etc. Now, would it be easier for me to find a local trustworthy shop to do the stuff for me? How much would something like that cost providing them with the amp, subs, and box? So pretty much just for labor. I really need help guys. As you can tell I know as much about this than Brittany Spears knows about parent hood. [/QUOTE]
