Got Bass?
This build is for my father. He recently had his GTO repainted and decided to redo his interior as well. He asked me what I could do to give him better sound than what was currently in there. He is not looking for anything crazy in there as he'd rather listen to the engine. Here is what we will be using:

Kenwood KDC-X395

Kenwood KAC 1502s & 2404s

Hybrid Audio Imagine 5.25's & 6.5's

Hybrid Audio I6SW

Knukonceptz Wiring

RAAM Audio Sound Damping

The car:

A little filler on the kicks, still need a bit of help

Not very often do you see somebody with the balls to cut up a classic car. I took major crap when I put a full system into my 64 Rambler 440. The people in "Goodguys" just didn't get the joke. The front mount subs in my 72 Chev PU were much more stealth,so much less crap was received. Good on you and your dad.

There is nothing wrong with cutting a car. It just **** better look and function nicer than stock

 
no sub stage!?!?!?!

The passenger side kick is a royal pain in the ***. Best way to be sure it gets smoothed out? Give it to your buddy who is a body man.

Nice, in my 66 GTO I just bought a set of kickpanels that were ready for speakers. I had to find the slimist comps I could find thou. Found a used pair of Kicker KS650's that fit and just cut a hole for the tweet. I didn't want to mess with cutting into the rear deck so made a Tline and mounted the box below the rear deck in the trunk. Still waiting for my amp rack to be built.
