I was wondering if anyone has removed the sub and the housing around with the 3rd brake light? I am considering removing it and building a custom box to port into the cabin of the car....any suggestions??

i wanted too, but it will look too weird w/o it, cause its a trim piece...

all i did was take out the sub and made it like a port like u said

nickjames

howd it turn out? does it sound pretty good? think you could snap some shots of it for me??

Just take the sub out and leave everything else. It will look the same as it does now, but there will be a hole under the cloth where the sub used to be.

ok, how about 6x9's in the indentations on either side of the sub...know if that is possible?

i removed my oem bose sub also and just left the space empty so that more bass could reach the cabin

i did iy, have 3 3" ports coming into my cab from a RF T212D2, what? did you say something? im losing my hearing bro. jk, it works! i build fiberglass and mdf and the downfiring w ports up, hits hard. i was nauseous

nickjames

oooooo, that sounds cool, was it a difficult process?

No it wasn't, just a basic knowledge on a skill saw table and a router. I used a fiberglass shell so the box is not constructed out of just fiberglass, it looks like it is though and sounds great.

does the bass sound clear and loud inside the car with the sub taken out, because what i did was pull down the arm rest, and the door and it sounds louder inside.
