[QUOTE="Quartersawn, post: 8672179, member: 676770"] The keep_hope_alive thread is what made me itching to do the sound deadening. I am a tinkerer so I think it will be a lot of fun. I cannot stand all the road noise in my corolla and since I will have it for a while 300-400 to get rid of that annoying whir at highway speeds is easy to justify. (I put 115k miles on my last car in 4 years) You do have quite a bit of room in the trunk still, however I am exploring all my possibilities in order to keep the sub out of the trunk if at all possible. I know I know. Another guy that wants room and bass. But I haul a lot of stuff for work and will most likely have to take the subs out every other week if I put them in the trunk. This is what I am toying with right now.
