a buddy of mine is selling his sounds system and is willing to get rid of the whole system enclosure subs and amp for 250 is it forth it for the money. his amp is mounted in back of the enclosure its a sony xpod http://www.xplodsony.com/xplod...R2022the subs are 12" kicker not exactly sure what model

do i need this and how good of quality is the amp and subs, if i were to get this i would probably build my own custom enclosures are the 12" subs to big.. thanks for the advice in advance.

I don't think that box will fit in the trunk, even if you got rid of the false floor and metal plate elevating the floor in the back of the trunk. (If you ever take it out, you'll see what I'm talking about.

If you want 2 x 12" subs, you'll have to do some slight trunk modifications, but not with that box!

oh no that box would definitely not fit in my trunk i would end up making my own custom enclosure out of fiberglass maybe one sub per side so 2 enclosures not sure yet, im just asking are these subs/ amp good quality and worth the 250 im going to spend for them

Thanks Doc.

personally i would hold off on that, save some money, and buy a good quality system.audio equipment is fairly expensive(well depending on your standards) so you get what you pay for

well it depends... if you're looking for a permanent system, then no.. I'd wait... but if you're just looking for something to hold you over.. then $250 isn't a bad deal!

Hey surman, have you tried to change the LEDs in the turn mirrors yet??

yeah i guess im going to just wait then when im actually ready to go all out and get a nice setup..

Doc as for the leds i took apart the mirror and had to bake the little light housing for a couple of min that holds the 5 leds its just a led ribbon and a chrome reflector the leds can be resolidered as a matter of fact i should order some leds to finish that up.

email me if you need any info.
