After sitting in the back seat of the 240, I wondered how anyone could engineer such crap. I guess it works if your some 5'5 Japanese guy. Since it smelled like cat piss(ask the previous owner..) I decided to make a speaker box and just ditch it. I took all the seat foam, seat belts including the ones in the windows and chucked them out. My friend and I spent about half a day and put this speaker box together. It perfectly fits in the slot where the seat used to be, including an angled back. I have a pair of 6x9s, but you can see there is plenty of room for 2 10s if you so please. If you are interested, i could probably throw some plans together.
I am going to carpet it when I redo the carpet in the car. You can see in one of the pictures that the carpet was cut. I am going to wait until I do my swap before I throw new carpet on everything.
It weighs about 50lbs. Its easy to take in and out, so if your ever racing, just pull it out and call it good

10s? bah! 12s own! actually, in all seriousness thats a pretty cool idea, seeing as the rear speakers suck at stock size. but i dunno, i just got rid of my sub box cause it was too heavy, and i bet that thing's got some decent weight to it....but props anyway!

to each his own :) I would have done more speaker, but its all i really wanted. I already had a 2 channel 300w amp, so I figured it was the best for me. It has enough base, good mid, and the speakers in the front take care of everything else!
