They only did one single chamber, but there is a LOT of air space to play with if you're able to go with fiberglass.

The floor really wasn't raised much at all, maybe 1/4 of an inch at most and that was only due to the panel on top used to make sure the entire floor was covered. The finishing panel is 1/2" MDF and sits in the same place as the stock carpeting.

It was a tight fight, though. The box is 3/4" MDF and the subs have a mounting depth of 6 3/4". You have about 8" from the lowest point to work with to maintain stock height.

They cut out a hole in the middle and built a pedestal in the box to go around the mounting for the spare tire.

Oh, nice. I had a similar idea to that. That's why I was wondering how they did it. I dunno if I would have gone with a single chamber for 2 subs. I don't really like the sound that it tends to produce. I find that you can have much "punchier" bass with single chambers.

Well, since I do fiberglass work pretty well now, I can't wait to get my hands on a Z!!

What Kenwood Unit is that? Backup Cam?


How much did it cost? Ballpark range.

Kenwood DNX 7140 - $1100 from sonicelectronix.com, $1500 MSRP.

Note if you want Kenwood to support the manufacturers warranty you will need to pay the $1500 and get it from an authorized retailer.

How much was the labor cost?
+ Box?

A ridiculous amount. About $900 for the box and $500 or so for the amp/wiring/cap. Had to pay a little extra to have the wires run for 2 amps, though, so I have the option to add one in easily for the speakers at a later date.

Damn.. Are my numbers right?

$900 Box
~$500 Labor + Cables/Amp/Cap
$1500 Kenwood DNX 7140
$600 2X P3D412
$80 2X P312G

= Grand Total $ 3580

Also the cost of the amp ($400 iirc).

Fortunately I already had all the other parts from my previous car so all I really had to pay was box/install and getting the HU.

Still way more money than I would like to have paid, but unfortunately don't have the tools or the place to do that kind of work here on the island.

Yeah, I have the stuff from my old car.

All I need is the HU, and Box/Install

Yes,..
Security and Sound is expensive, but well worth it IMO....treat your car with respect and done right the first time for a clean install...

Im may go there if Im too lazy to do my own install...not sure if I want an amp for just front speakers...still deciding on which Kenwood double din to get...

Also, you NEED the Nav accessory to run navigation and its not built in?
