Wow. Sounds like something I should have done when my carpet was all pulled back for my transmission swap.

Yeah, that's a good idea for sure. It would be nice to be able to get it up behind the dash and onto the firewall too, but I am guessing that would be a real project...

Yeah and I can say from experience that pulling the dash is no small feat. I am interested to hear how much that helps. If it does indeed help, I may have to go to the audio shop and get myself some dynamat.
