    I suspect you will hear it just fine from where you are.

    Love it!!! Just today I was considering how to get back some of my bootspace... I considered buying this sub. But shipping was killing...
    Loosing the tray would be OK I guess compared to drving around like this for the past months...

    Yea If I'm not mistaken the tray on top of the spare is like 2 cu ft, which is can it a good size subwoofer. If your looking for 8 inch subwoofer sun down makes an awesome one, or shok industry or American bass

    Thanks, for the suggestions, but the link to the 8" was just a compromise because it would hardly cost any bootspace. But when building myself, I'll drop in one or two of the 12" Aliante subwoofers I have lying around :)

    I know this is small but thought it was pretty cool. Surprised PIONEER doesn't offer stuff like this here in the US..

    :) Lying around as in: they were supposedly the shizzle, so I started scouring Ebay for them and found one (Mk2 Phase Evolution), then a pair (Mk 1 Phase Linear) and then a single LTD for peanuts (relatively speaking that is... damaged cone, but fully functioning). Just saw an Ebay add claiming my Mk1 LTD only has a production run of 100 and there's only a few left (I think the guy was exagerating, but he is one hell of a salesman :ROFLMAO: Made me wanna buy his one too)

    They are making a comeback...
