get rid of the 6x9s man, they will just fook up with the bass from the subs (due to a clash in sub frequencies below 100Hz aka "mud" effect). Replace them with some small coxials and run them off the HU, or coxials in the rear 1/4 panels and run them off an amp with low gains

Its been said many time before, but the only best way to get decent sound out of a pair of 6x9s is to have them in a sealed box and even then with a crossover on top cutting out the lower end stuff

Eitherway, looks nice mate, although i would have had both subs arse out or both arse in...looks a tad odd like they are Also mate, clean the cone of the left sub, looks abit dirty
looking good like, keep it up mate

In mine all u hav to do is fold the back of the seats flat and the false floor ma Ice sits on slides back against the front seats.

Just far enough to get the spare wheel out, takes 2 mins

in mine i undo a screw in my boot and the spare wheel drops from underneath the car

In my corsa i mad the false floor into two sections so it was easy to remove to get at the spare

Not very easily but you just have to bring a screwdriver along with ya so you can undo all the wires at the amp and unscrew a supporting peice of wood (bit behind the powercap) then it all comes out in sections lol

i thought you used different internal measurements for subs when isobaric and solobaric example. you take you left sub now the room in that box is say for example 1 but you have the sub magnet etc inside taking up room however if you take your right sub been solbaric means that you havent got that magnet taking up the extra volume in the box so the left box is 1- sub magnet and cone volume however right box is 1

get what I mean? the volumes of the boxes should be different? also if they dont run in perfect time to each other surely the soundwaves off the left sub hitting the right sub will knock it to fuck? just a thought

looks sweet as tho.
