Exactly I told him there are only two sizes. Found the same salesman hopeless before and dread each time I go there and have him serve me.

Of course the downside is as soon as you put anything in the rear you will muffle anything directional (anything other then bass) that they produce....

Yeah exactly rattled like hell in the roof console, as for the drawers I won't to go as high as possible on one side as I can't put drawers on the other side as my dog wouldn't fit I've test run an old pair of 6x9s in the tailgate and it sounds a lot better then before. I don't mind if it muffles out high pitch as they are mainly to add a bit of bass anyway

Cheers

You could run some low pass filters on them and just run them as bass drivers....

Got very frustrated that car audio "experts" at autobarn etc are all 15 year old girls that don't know how to use the sound board anyone know where I can go for good audio advice not after expensive stuff but it seemed like they didn't even want to turn it up so I could hear the speakers. I wish wow sight and sound was still around they had the best service in my experience

Where are you situated?

Yeah cheers that's sort of the plan the amp I have has a bass boost so I can run more bass thru them without running to much bass thru the fronts which are run off the head unit. Cheers
