Default Cab Cubbies

Could I get someone to take several pics from different angles of their cab cubbies and rough height measurment and also how large the diameter to the bar is. Most of the pics I can find are just from the door with the seats leaned forward. I'm thinking about making subwoofer enclosure to replace my rear seats and would like base it on the cubbies if possible. Thanks.

I've been thinking of doing the same thing, even going so far as to install FatMat sound dampening and re-carpet the back using perlon.

So anyone with experience doing a rear seat delete and installing speakers please chime in.

Well i had a box that did just that, it was done with fiberglass to fit the rear seat area and then had an MDF face. It held 2 10's and really was quite a beast. Its in my dads s2 now as i seem to be stuffing people into the back seat of my car pretty often. Ill look for pictures of it while it was out.

That would be great. I pulled the seats out of my '85 years ago, hell I sold it in '07, so I could do that.....I still have pieces of the burch plywood I cut to build it. I wish I could get my hands on some signature material so I could match to front seats and door pannels.

The 2 -10's in the replacing the back are nice seat vibrators. I didn't like it at first till I put a later of Raam mat on the floor. That cut the road noise down and tightened the bass up and now sounds great. I'm putting 2 box's of Raam mat in the car with the cover foam. I'm 1/3 way done and the sound from the Focal's also sound much better. Yes it adds 50 lbs to the car but it's a daily driver and not a track car so the lower road noise and better sounding audio is a good trade off.

Any pictures of the installation of the sound deadening, I'll be ripping out my rear seats soon to do the same thing.
