Subwoofer install
This is how I installed a sub on my 99 Ram 1500. It worked for me and did not take up any space with large and/or expensive boxes...I:
1) unbolted center seat/console and turned it upside down, 2) positioned/centered 12" sub on bottom of seat and scribed a line where to cut, 3) Cut 1 inch inside of scribed line with grinder and cut the 2 metal rods, 4) de-burred cut metal with hand file, 5) Dropped sub in and outlined where to cut out foam using utility knife with new blade, also used fingers to pull/dig it out, 6) positioned sub screw holes so they would hit into the metal frame, 7) drilled holes and screwed the sub into the frame, 8) Connected wires and done!!! If
you appreciate this... thank you, you're welcome... if you don't like it... that's cool... don't like it but don't hate and
post no negative **** either.

Tidy and out of sight. You cannot argue with that. What are you driving it with?
I highly recommend those squishy type of ear plugs.
I just got my truck.
Drove my last car for 15 years with no sound system at all.
As soon as I got it roadworthy, titled and registered, I'm driving down the road listening to its quite adequate factory sound system and enjoying music behind the wheel for the first time in 15 years and I start thinkin about upgrades.
...Slapped myself.

Ran 1\0 cable thru this grommet on firewall.
The cable entered into the truck up by the emergency brake release pedal... then I popped off the kick panel and fed the cable down towards the floor trim piece...
Removed these screws ... they were corroded and full of crud, so I used that little pick to clean them out so that the screwdriver would seat well and not strip them out....
Then began tucking the cable in the crevice... it fit well... then I had to decide how and where to route cable to under driver side seat... that's where I'm installing the amplifier...
This is where I made a small slice and exited cable to under the seat....barely noticable....
Grounded to seat bolt... sanded the area very well...and very important...
Power, ground, remote turn on connections with amp bridged
Control and RCA side of amplifier...with amplifier bridged
JVC head unit... works for me! Thanks for looking..
