Yea sealed boxes do sound very clear. What did your old system consist of?

JJ dumb question, but how do you remove the rear deck lid. I know I probably have to remove the pillars n fold the seats down but just by glancing at (I haven't messed with the deck lid) I don't see slits for the seatbelts. Any ideas?

You will need to remove the side trim that goes completely around the windows (top section removes separately from the rest of the side) headrests, and from there it pretty much all falls into place. Be careful of airbags

right just remember you cannot remove the deck entirely without unbolting the seat belts as there are no slits. so you will just have to put it on the side or cut slits in the panel.

I must be getting old, because it's too loud lol! I was surprised by the clarity of the sub, I was expecting loudness but not a lot of precision; So I can say I'm pleasantly surprised. I'm happy with it, it sounds good at normal volumes but there's the extra bass if you just want to show off lol
