Dynamatt everywhere in my doors, on both sides...ALL OVER.


Quite the pleasant surprise.

As to the speakers, the mtx 6.5s sound great matched up with jvc headunit.

Did you use your original speakers behind your seats for fill?

Sure the models called JVC-BB2 its discontinued but looked like the only one that would fit under our seats after doing some reading on the forums here.



I don't have a picture of it yet I'll take one when I get home tonight, but it fits under the driver seat (haven't tried passenger yet but shouldn't be a problem.)

How much does this bracket piece cost? All I did was measuered where I wanted them to go, this was kinda tricky as I didnt want the magnet to touch anything back there. Then used a jig saw to cut out the holes in that plastic cover, wired speakers, screwed everthing back and it was good to go. They haven't fallen out yet, I leave the passenger seat slightly forward to hear the fill better.

That must be one small sub, cause it is very tight under the seat. I think the Stealth box is the best way to go and still save some space in the trunk.

Before you go installing 2 more speakers and cutting stuff up make sure you hear the once you have in with an amp'ed setup.
