Silver Member Username: CharlesbhsDallas, Tx USA Post Number: 118 Registered: Jan-07 | i guess if i upgraded my speakers in the front it would work possibly. but i dont know any good 4" components.... but whats a good subwoofer that wont take up much room. but i want it to be ported.... |

Silver Member Username: Big_edge_headMilwaukee, Wisconsin USA Post Number: 203 Registered: Mar-07 | u can trim around the hole and make it bigger. all it takes is a sharp razor knife and just hack away at it till the speakers fit. or make an adapter out of MDF. it might seem like a lot of work but its really not |

Silver Member Username: CharlesbhsDallas, Tx USA Post Number: 120 Registered: Jan-07 | are the RE 8's any good for my subs? and thanks edge but it's a lease so i cant cut it apart lol but thanks for your input. |

Silver Member Username: Mike11202Sewell, NJ US Post Number: 739 Registered: Nov-06 | They make CDT Audio HD42's.. that would work great, the highs are amazing you definately will not need rear speakers I believe alteraudiousa sells cdt on this forum so hell give u a great price For subs RE 8's are good, you should also look at Soundsplinter Rl-i 8's or TC Sounds 1000 8's www.soundsplinter.com www.tcsounds.com |
