Tbar with Subwoofers?

Post by Road_Rebel »

Hey guys,

Does anyone here or know of anyone who run tbars with subwoofers?

If so...

Where do you put your glass when you have taken them out?

I was thinking to only get one big powerful subwoofer and hopefully the 2 pieces of glass will go behind the passenger seat....

Your replies will be greatly appreciated.

Regards

Daniel

Riot68, might take out the plastic in the cubby hole and see if it fits as I have one of those alpines. Just on top of the cubby.

It does fit but only just, I took out the old stock premium sound sub and it will just squeeze in...

BTW are they any good? Not actually got it wired up yet...

4 x 7" Rockford Fosgate subs - 2 each side - mounted on the floor behind the seats, mine's not a T-bar but should allow the roof panels to fit.

They are mounted on top of the boxes on carpeted MDF boards, sound quality is great.

i got a 12" Type R in a custom box that i made which fits snug behind my seat, i also have a bmic so no room in boot for tbars.. luckly they both fit pretty fine behind the passenger seat :p just watch your tints on the rear 1/4 window if you have any!

Yeah especially considering the size. My headunit has sub out but no volume for the sub out, and it's actually a bit to loud.
