post-28102-1205293235_thumb.jpgI just finished my custom subwoofer enclosure for the back seat of my 99 996 C2S Cab.

I chose to pull the lumbar and bottom cushion rather than trying to configure a speaker directly behind one of the front seats. There were a couple of reasons for this...

- I'm nearly 6'2" and need most of the room the seat provides for

- I was aiming for an enclosure around .6 to .8 cubic ft of air; therefore I needed space

In the box is a JL Audio 10W3-D6 that will sound quite nice once it's hooked up to a JL Audio 500/1 amp! Unfortunately, I have to wait on my Alpine IVA-W205 to arrive this weekend before completing the custom stereo install.

Comments/thought?

sweet, looks like you didnt lose too much cargo area (besides the loss of a passenger seat)

any reason you didnt go with grey carpet to match?

The interior color is black. These particular pictures show the contrast in the colors of the carpet.

Rotor,

Thats great! My installer wanted to do the same exact thing. I got impatient because he told me it would take 2 weeks and I punk'd out. The one thing you WILL notice is you wont have to crank up the volume so high to get good bass. With my 6x9 setup, I have to crank the volume to get thumping bass. There is no "warmth" at low volumes. You wont have that problem because you built an enclosure. I love it. Good for you rotor!

Thanks for sharing.

Joe D.
