Jim, Sounds neat. I didn't think there was that kind of room in the
doors. I take it you have a Ext Cab? The Sub is on the floor behind the
drivers seat? I like the door/kick panel set up. What do you think about
using a thunderform for the sub? Sounds like your really into this.
How is a compition judged? I'd just like to up grade my system. Thanks
for the ideas. Bob
