A better way to tie my sub down...

[runamuk]

Currently my sub box is tied in place with a few taekwondo belts, what have others used instead? It's not a bad setup, although better speakers in the back doors and a bigger amp to power them would be a bonus... maybe some dynomat too...

wwwaaaay back when i had a sub in my VR6 i created a metal bracket that bolted it to the child restraint. was simple but nice and secure.

as the hawk showed, that is what you should do, you will be able to use the factory 4 mounting points from where the CD shuttle would normally have been.

Also HitmanR32 what is wrong with mulberry?
That is an awesome colour for a VR6.

I wouldn't call my music Doof Doof, but I can tell you a little bass can make the music sound better. I really missed my sub in the few days the box was being built. It's very possible to enjoy a sub without letting the world know you have one. It's about that little volume switch, the secret is not to turn it to the point where the people in Germany can actually hear the music :P

Velcro on the bottom of the box and stick to the boot lining lol

[runamuk]

That's really not going to hold... I'll probably just get one of them fiberglass boxes.

Haha Runamuk, I read the title to this thread and thought the site had become one of those BDSM websitesj:
