[QUOTE="Freggles, post: 8667675, member: 676445"] [SIZE=12pt]So I just picked up an old ‘92 Sonoma. It’s a single cab truck with literally zero speakers but a “dual” head unit. I would like to make a symmetric set of custom speaker boxes for behind the seats but I’m not sure of how to configure the speakers in the boxes or what speakers to get.
