Default New Subwoofer installed!

Well i had a spare JL 12w7, amp, and 2 400 amp batcap batteries in my garage so i got them installed. Had the old sub removed, and had the rear deck dynamted. The first false wall they made was HORRIBLE, so i made them redo it, here are the pics, enjoy!


After install:


After making them redo it, they had to use ultra leather because they ran out of vynil, i asked them what i owe them for the vynil and stuff since it was originally carpet, they apologized for the first install and said its free

How do you get to the spare tire? I had this problem in my Tercel with the same setup.

Hey what is that chrome strip you have under where the trunk closes on the bumper? Or is it just the reflection angle.

Looks like it is in the center of the box. There is a lip of black on the bottom and not the top that makes it look off center.

Nice and clean

Has anyone tried replacing the stock sub w/one that will fit in the same location, w/a low-depth aftermarket sub like new offerings from JL, kicker, ect...?
