Were those leather seats factory?

And does that battery always sit INSIDE the truck. Good thing it's not a lead type :p


Is there 4 subs in that truck? Looks like 2 in the center, one under each seat.



As far as blowing them up. I have yet to try one of them subs. but it seems you can blow anything up if you put enough power to them.

I've blown 5 subs in 4 years. But 12, wow. Did you have a warrnty I hope?

the seats aren't factory, i went to a junk yard and found a totaled dakota quadcab, everything but the back passenger seat was messed up, i bought the seat fer about $25 ( dealership wanted waaaay too much, especially for leather ) drilled new holes to bolt down the seat, had it covered to match stock leather seats, and sealed up the old holes where the 60 bench was. i didn't want to put teh battery in the bed cause i plan on running other stuff off it and didn't feel like drilling holes in the bed. there are 2 subs and the amps are faceing outward under the seats, a friend of mine built the rack to hold em in place, and i took it to the same place i had my seats covered and had em cover the box and the rack to match the seats. the warrenty is WAYYYYYY outta date but a friend of mine has me covered on subs. i dunno i eather blow the coils or the subs start to crack in the middle, and nobody has touched the subs cause i don't let people sit in the back. i want to get the cerwinvega stroker pro. i was reading about it and apparently all i need is one. but at the moment i can't do anything cuase i am deployed so when i get back i can replace the sub and order my 22's


ps. that theft system u created with the gas, that sh*t is sweeet i am Very interested about that system in my truck.

That is quite the setup. I thought of pulling my 60 seat and installing another 40 seat to give room like that. But I may be haivng a 3RD kid soon :p
Now that I have two great subs behind my seats, I'd most likely leave it like it is now. It's ear defening as it is...




I never finished the gas system, but the tubing is installed. Got to REALLY think things out so I ONLY hurt the ones breaking into my truck and NOT my family!

I gave up on SoloBarics also, but not because they tend to blow, but because they sounds like crap.

Now I have a single 15" Brahma MKII, which murders my 3 15" L7 set-up.

I believe you are from Houston, correct? If so, we'll meet up some time so you can check it out.
