I'm looking to do a system in my 2006 convertible-I was wondering what other people did to actually get SERIOUS bass in the car. I am wanting to go very custom and would like to see what direction some people took. I have 2 15" in my SN-95 convertible and still have my entire trunk and spare tire-was looking to do something along those lines.

Hey-thanks for the replys and the pics of your install. Looks really good-It's funny i have a Tungsten Grey convertible also. I just installed my Pionerr Z110 last night. After I recover financially(around xmas) I will start on my system. Please post pics when youre finished.

15" kicker comps- They are one of the few subs I found that work in a free air application. I still can get to my spare fine(17") I have an extra battery on the left side. I also have a parametric EQ, Line driver and 2 capacitors on the right side. I have 2 amps behind the rear seats (vertical).

I got my Pioneer Z110 installed and Pioneer 8" flat subs





Probably not gonna get real serious until after winter. I was perfectly happy with the way the factory subs sounded (for now) but I couldn't stand the way they looked-too robotic looking for my tastes.
