Hello Grant

I have installed a 12" Pro Plus sub in a custom made box behind the passenger sit. It is 500 watt sub and it sounds fantastic. No need to upgrade the other speakers or anything, it sounds brilliant.

Although my passengers don't appreciate it as much as I do! :lol:

I think the packages are a good deal in money terms - they're usually trying to clear out slow stock, or get ready for next year's line (oh so cynical) so why not pick them up cheap?

Save a bit of cash for a wiring kit, else you'll be running into interference problems (see last post in this forum).

You might also want to double check the air volume required by your subs - the 12" custom boxes behind the seat might be a bit tight for some 12" subs.

Personally, I think 2 x 12" in my 2 would be a bit OTT for my tender ears, but each to their own I say :lol:

good luck with it

Gaz you got any pictures of your sub box etc as I've got a 12 here and was thinking of trading it in. However if you have got yours to fit - the misses is only short so doesn't bother me

Hello Tallbloke

Bloody hell that is tall. I'm only 5ft 10 1/2 so I fit in fine. Do you have a T-bar roof and does your head stick out of the top?

I can't work out how to upload pictures mate.

I will try again this weekend.

Sorry for the delay I will get them on somehow.
