Do you mind my asking how much it was? I'm just trying to gauge how much that would cost me out here...

Thx. Well price would depend on your choice of equipment and the level of fit and finish you want in your system.

Assuming all that you've done here, same equipment, etc...

It will rock the house! I just need another local car here to test this in. There is enough roon there to install amp and sub. Without going need the spare at all!

As far as adding a 6W3 - would it be worth doing that if you *also* have the bigger woofer in the spare location? A sort of more-detailed mid-base woofer?

Thanks for taking time to answer questions!

I try not to quote prices over the internet because custom shops charge differently due and prices on equipment and customer relationships. But I can say that SRR2449 got a great deal.

As far as having 2 sub woofer systems I seriously doubt that you would want both. The 6w3 set-up has worked with great results in many Porsche 911 installs that we have performed. Now there may be enough room to install a shallow 10" sub in the spare tire itself but it may not give the best desired low bass effects.

Thanks Jeff. I was really just trying to get a ball park figure to see if it was in my price range. I didn't really want to be spending more than 400 for a set of component speakers, but I am pretty sure they would run more than this. I called up one shop and they gave me a price of 600. I am not sure if this is high or what not but i'm thinking for now I'll wait on these though they look really nice in you install. I was wondering for the pillar. Did you actually drill out all the little holes and then wrap it with the grill cloth? Also the black stuff holding the tweeters in place, is this like black hot glue? I really appreciate all your input and help. I still do not quite understand what you were trying to say about the three channel amp though. Now that I've given it some thought, I am assuming that the right front signal and left rear signal are not being used? I understand if you rather not go into detail about that.
