Looks great.Im building a wall for my 5th gen. I like the idea of the subs integrated into the wall but i dont think my 10" subs will fit. Im also running deep dish 6x9s in it. Ill have photos up once my interior is done since everyone wants to see what ive done

How many are you using, that's a 10" in there and could have done two easily but don't need that much for my taste. I wanted one twelve but wasn't going to fit as nicely.

i have 2 kicker comp 10''s that are deep. I think im going to build the wall out so i can run my 6x9s in there as well cause as of now im planning on doing seperate boxes for the 10s and putting my 2 amps and 6x9s on the wall. I have 4 point harness bucket seats so im gonna have a mounting bar behind the seats so that cuts a little room out. My 6x9s are about 5'' deep if not a little more. I also thought about just doing the 10s on the bottom and fiberglass the 6x9s out so they pop while still having the wall flush if that makes sense

The air space required for the subs are in a closed box 12x12 ,12x12.5, 13.5x12.5 so just over a foot cubed

Looks great. I enjoy the one my PO installed. It's more than enough.
Good work.

Alright, got it in. Here are the pics. @Littlemanristo I have buckets with harnesses as well, no bar though. You can see the back of the center console too. Had to remove it to get it in but not a big deal.

that looks really good i think im gonna do something simular. but i think im gonna do a harness since im making like a pro street and wanna have it as safe as possible. your wall looks good. im gonna angle my box out though so it the subs face up a little and my deep 6x9s fit. i got 12 sq ft of dynamat for $30 if you know someone that works at best buy they get great discounts

Looks great! Really complements the interior theme.Oughta sound good without the bench seat to muffle it.Buckets will make for a far better soundstage.I noticed the difference that made in mine.Nice work,congrats!

Would you happen to have dimensions for the seat brackets for your racing seats

Actually, the PO put the seats in and made his own mounts. From what I can tell he made a box and mounted the sliders directly to that and then bolted the box down. I'll be removing the driver side soon so I can get the seat to adjust forward a little more so if you want some pics of the setup I could do that. Might be a few days though.
