Silver Member Username: Aaronjp1990Lerwick, Shetland Uk Post Number: 127 Registered: Apr-06 | my stock ones are 13 but that not the prob. they go into the dash and the magnet is bringing up in the wiper motor on the passengers side so i need about 25-30mm of mdf sticking to clear it. and theres not enough room to mold it with fiber glass so i was thinking about making 2 box's to mount between the seats or above the headrests. any other ideas? |

Gold Member Username: The_image_dynamicSan Diego Post Number: 2438 Registered: Dec-06 | Make rings out of mdf and use that as a spacer to get to the (lack of) depth you need. Or maybe try to move the mount on the wiper motor a little down? Comps are generally designed to sound good in an infinite baffle setup and won't sound all that great in a small box. |

Silver Member Username: JtownPost Number: 166 Registered: Mar-07 | if that doesn't work, you should mount them inside your center console, assuming you have some sort of compact car. so that they serve the same purpose as the speakers in the doors, cept now the driver and passenger have sound coming from both left and right directly at them....maybe? |
