Silver Member Username: Aman2005Post Number: 209 Registered: May-06 | Hello Lee and mike, The box will not basically in trunk. IT will facing up behind the rear seat, like the position of stock speakers. I have a hatchback lee, like a Accord or benz. Its a Skoda OCtavia, http://skoda-auto.co.in/ritdi.htm l |

Post Number: 896 Registered: Feb-06 | link don't work. but i think i remember seeing it before, red 4 door right? and if i'm right, and you say it's like an accord, then it's a trunk, not hatchback. and you'll probably have best results from facing them towards the back of the car. |
Silver Member Username: Aman2005Post Number: 210 Registered: May-06 | http://skoda-auto.co.in/ritdi.html Actually, I can not buy sound deadning materials, like dynamat. Because, here in India, they are not avilable. And buying on eBay will cost me as same as buying a new amp. Without dynamat the trunk will be continously rattling. I havent installed my system yet, I've heared my friend's system. He has a cheap and crap in his car LOL, that also make the the trunk to rattle which looks like sh-it when someone is standing outside the car. Thats why I am asking, that how much will be difference in the bass if I place behind rear seat and not in trunk. |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 898 Registered: Feb-06 | i'm still lost if you have a trunk or not? if it's like an accord than it's a trunk. i'd put them facing towards the rear, maybe putting the rear seats down if you don't use them to open it up more. or not using the rear seats at all and face them inside the cabin. or do you mean putting them on the back seats? |
Silver Member Username: Aman2005Post Number: 211 Registered: May-06 | mike, i'm not planning to place the box on rear seat and cannot put down the rear seats. You knowthe place where the stock speakers are placed? on a plastic, or what it is, tray? which can be seen through rear windshield. I'm posting the link fo the car's pics as i cant upload here because posting msg from my cell phone. http://autoimage.cz/skoda/octaviaiirs.htm the link is something like dat, |

Gold Member Username: BestmankindLos Angeles, CA USA Post Number: 4185 Registered: Oct-05 | i think you should put it in the trunk firing back. |
Silver Member Username: Aman2005Post Number: 214 Registered: May-06 | I know lee that it will sound great in trunk. Buy If you have looked at the4 image, I dont have a lot of space. I have to travell around alot and cant afford to block the trunk. I just want to know that how much differene will be there if I place the box facing up behin rear seat after removing the deck rather palcing the box in trunk facing backward. |

Silver Member Username: Aman2005Post Number: 215 Registered: May-06 | Thans juliob, If I install dynamat, what will be effect on bass? Please clearly mention. Will it stop rattling of trunk? Also, where to install the dynamat? I mean floor of trunk, lid, sides, what?? Thankyou |
