Has anyone done this to their Aveo?
As far as I am aware no one has done this yet (but many are working)...
Pardon the naive question :oops: but...
where would the spare go then?
I honestly wish I could do that though. When I went looking for a sub woofer and what not for my car, I decided against it because I need my trunk. And having the spare came in handy 'cuz I hit a crater one night, bent the rim and flattened the tire instantly :x
The sound in my car sucks. If it would be possible to have both the spare and the sub woofer, I'd do it in a second.
Personally C3 Customs is working on a dual solution BASS and Spare.....I will keep you posted....Quote:

You'd Have to make a bracket for the sub to fit in the well.
Has anyone done anything to upgrade those aweful 4 x 6 speakers in the rear window of a hatchback? I threw some 6 x 9's in boxes and set them on top of the tray in the back and placed interchangeble connectors so i can switch speakers in case i need to put some thing in the back. I have 2 12" subs in the back with its own amp and up graded to 6 1/2's in the front, all alpine. Sounds good, however if i ever wreck those 6 x 9's are gonna kill me. :cry:

bazooka tubes or infinity bass link's are the best for this car from personal experience.
On the other hand, I couldn't be happier with my 10 inch sealed sub(150W rms) with a 140watt (rms) amp and 5 1/4 and 1 inch components in the front and 2way 4x6 in the rear. All for under 200$. Thanks to the surplus store :)Quote:

I am not taking anything away from Bazooka or Infinity but there is better equipment out there and best is relative to ones' experiences.Quote:

Where space becomes a factor, and depending on the desired effect, they can be great, there are, however other solutions that are just as good, if not better in some ways, if I may name a few, even give ideas.Quote:

5) flush seat boxes (snug up to your rear seat with a forward facing speaker)
As I may like the sound, I am not a fan of larger speakers 12" and up, primarily because of the airspace and power requirements, but some are a fan of the plain old squared box, though they are not very space efficient.
In the end, you got to go with what you like.
