    Oh, and the spacer ring is a great idea. I'd like to rig it up so that I can also install a speaker grill, so I don't puncture the sub during one of my Costco runs...I mean, during one of my Moab runs.

    PHO2GR4 ,with the 10" sub you are using you could fit 2 in the rear door without the spare tire. It would be a little more work. Add $50 to the price i gave you. shawn

    Cool!

    Now all I need is a VX to put it into. Not only was my Ebony NOT delivered today, as the transport company had indicated...but they didn't even CALL yet. They said to expect a call 24 hours before delivery, so I could be here to accept it. Their office is closed on weekends, too. Bummer.

    I'll call their 800-number tomorrow to see if they can give me a better ETA.

    I'm actually down by Fort Lewis, but I work in Seattle on weekends. Don't get the VX up that way very often because I drive my more fuel efficient VW, but we could work something out. There are enough active PNW VXers that we could probably have a small meet some time here in the near future.

    Well i just bought a full kenwood sys (cassette deck with remote ,CD changer,capacitor,digital spectrum analyzer,two subs,two 500 watts amps & four 6'5 speakers,hopefully I know how to install the system.

    The missing piece of the puzzle is the encloure,the two subs are 12'' & the speakers are 3 way;I'm thinking about customized box,but i'll never give up on the spare tire whatsoever.

    you have 2 choices. 1 is to lose the spare and install one in the rear door . Option 2 is to get a custom box built for behind the rear seat. I can build you one If you are interested. shawn

    Think about this.. The devotion you have to your spare tire is devotion that includes.. if you blow a rear tire.. you are dedicated enough to the spare that you will jack up the front.. remove one of those tires.. put the spare on there.. then jack up the flat rear tire.. remove it and put the front tire you just took off .. there.. that is the only way to run around on a spare tire that you store in that place in the back...

    A good plan if you are stranded in the middle of nowhere.. but if you are near a tire store.. there are alternatives
