Default interior customizing

So I was listening to the stereoand had the subs up real loud but I thought about how restricitve the back seat is to letting the bass out of the trunk and into the front. That gave me the idea of doing a little customizing,so I thought about cutting out all the rear deck where the 6x9s are and replace it with plexiglass and cut holes in that for the speakers, but to let out more bass I was also going to cut some holes in the plexiglass like ports in a sub box. This would almost make a viewing area and let some of the neon lights that are around the subs into the rest of the car. any input is welcome I just want something to work on. thanks

there are alredy slots in the rear deck so some sound can get out......you dont wanna cut that metal out and repce with plexiglass because then it wont be very strong....that back deck helps support the rear half of your car and keeps the car strainght....

just put in a fold down rear seat if you dont have one

Not to mention if you do that, that plexiglass would rattle like a SOB!
