Boss Bass 600 Mounting?

[dovienya]

Sorry for the delay, this weekend has been absurdly busy. Sure, I can snap a picture of it behind the seat. There isn't much to see, however. Will probably snap a quick picture either before or after work tomorrow.

Of course with the low end of my system sounding good, I'm realizing I'm lacking a little in the high end. I've already upgraded to the Polk DB 651 door speakers, so I'm trying to decide between sticking some other tweeters somewhere, or switching out for some different door speakers. Have been looking at a quad coaxial set by Sony. Each 6.5" speaker has 3 tweeters. The low end of the speaker is pretty weak, but the high end is up to 27khz.

Love the infinity's 6020cs components If you are needing more tweets buy some and use the rear channel wires that way you can adjust the power to them with the balance.They sound great in the door window pilar.

Ok as for the boss600 It can fit under the dash but you will have to take the upper dash out and build a bracket to hold it up, also will give room to acsess to the battery/tire area.Still seems like alot of work.but cool

I might put it under the passenger side seat will need to remake front seat bracket seems easier to do. Fabricate it from the stock bracket.

don't forget to dynamat the outer door panels I need to do that next.

Great! Pics would be much appreciated

Okay, so it's a horrid cell phone picture, but here's the unit on behind the seat, with the seat tipped forward






Cant really tell from the photo, but that's on the angle behind the drivers seat, directly below the netting of the "cargo cover".

It actually fit pretty much perfectly into a bit deeper of an indentation in the carpeting right there. And with the industrial velcro I picked up at the hardware store, I dont think it's going to move.

Dynamat in the doors will be happening at some point. I'm still not sure if I want to go so far as to try to fabricate somewhere for some tweeters to go, but we'll see what happens.

Lets try this again Bad post...
Ok going to make the passenger side seat brackets to install the boss600 under the seat tomorrow. Pre mock-up it fits under and have full seat movement and handle usage. It should only stick out 1/2 past the original bracket. But looks good since the silver rib side will show. You can't see it when looking into the car and if the seat is moved alittle forward totally hidden.

P.S. don't ever tell the wife you are going out to the garage to work on her car and that you will be using a plasma cutter DOH!!!!
