New center console/armrest

Well, as the title says I have a new arm rest. It is just as sick as it gets. It is a Kenwood dual sub that I installed in there because I got it for a steal along with a Sony 1200W amp and a capacitor. This on top of my 200W amp for the front door speakers. Let me tell it is just ridiculous but I like it. Helped someone out who needed the money.

Subwoofer wired and ready to go:


Sub bolted on to the stock center seat console bracket:

Seats back in.

How it looks for now because I don't want folks trying to steal my chit:

Thanks guys. Let me just say that even at lower volumes everything sounds better. BTW that thing is ported on the driver side.(of course)They say bass is harder to discern where it comes from and that may be true except that sucker thumps the driver seat. I feel it big time. This setup rivals what I have in my den and that is with Bose stuff.

Oh, forgot to mention that my fenders and body panels don't rattle like the hoopdie chit you see rolling around. Solidly mounted in a solid vehicle.

Looks good Mike. Neveer even though of replacing the center console with a kicker. Juat plase don't start wearing baggy pants and wearing your hat sideways.
I can imagine the sound must be great.

Looks good Mike you did a nice job. I bet it sounds great.

Only one thing went through my mind though when I saw the pictures: There goes any chance you might've had at any roadhead.

Yes, I said it. I'm demented. God made me that way.

True Lisa, but with the right song the middle passenger could be very interesting to watch!! I always have to pull over for that anyway

LOL! Yeah, I fully admit, the #1 thought that ran through my head was this: wonder how I'd crawl around that thing...there's no laying over the top of it. hmmm.

Glad I wasn't the only one thinking that.
