03 TL factory sub replacement
well ive done some searching and only found one thread from 05 from drcookie about replacing the factory sub. but it still left me with questions.
i would like to replace the factory sub with a:
MTX Thunder4500 T4508 (8" sub)
or
JL8W1v2/JL8w0
and any small 100-125w RMS amp i can find
my question is will this work? can these subs be installed in our factory location and not a true sealed inclosure? reading crutchfield reviews others have used the MTX as a factory replacement with great results.
my goal is to gain mid range sound/bass which i feel im missing from my current setup. view my sig for my current sound system. all advice and opinions would be great. thanks.
