First of all I'd like to say that I'm a little late on the upload. I got the jeep roughly a year ago and it is a '02 se with 53,000 miles on it. Since then I have done some big and some small modifications to it. Mods include:
~a new quadratec black diamond sailcloth replacement top
~smittybilt roll bar covers
~cover king seat covers
~a set of Polk audio replacement speakers for dash and soundbar since the old ones were blown.
~a new sony head unit
~new LEDs for the dash and for the dome light
~5 32x11.5r15 bf goodrich mts
~5 15x8 mammoth wheels
~3 inch zone off-road suspension lift kit
Here are some pictures of the jeep as it has evolved.

Finally done with audio. Installation of my subwoofer was quite brief and only took me about 3 hours even though I had to take the seat out. All wiring is hidden and the sub is now under the drivers seat secured so the floor with a sheet of Velcro. Had to cut the carpet under the drivers seat, but I don't plan on having it on there forever. Despite how small it is 5.75x8.5 it hits hard enough to sound like a 10. Great product and would recommend to anyone looking to get a decent, but not door rattling amount of bass in their jeep.

The sub is attached under the drivers seat via Velcro. It also came with a remote which I attached to the center console. For the wiring I attached to the head unit with an rca cable. There was also another wire (blue/white) that goes to the back of the headunit. The power comes right from the battery. It's a nice little sub and produces enough bass but not too much. I would recommend this sub as it comes with all necessary wiring except the Rca cable. It is also very compact and easy to conceal. I hope this info helps. :)

New Sub



Why would you choose to fire the sub at the rear door? Do you have a concern of damaging the speaker with stuff in the back of the Jeep? What about damaging the door from the vibrations? I know sound waves from a subwoofer are omni-directional but directly firing that at the door seems like it would cause more of an issue that firing it at the back of the rear seat. Thoughts?

Birthday and 1 year anniversary presents for my soon to be girlfriend. Dry spell since I'm 18 and only make ~150 in tips and ~60 overall hourly every weekend. And I'm a college student ;). I wanna regear eventually but idk if there'll be a point because my engine is being run by four squirrels.

Regearing is well worth the $$$. It will add an extra squirrel. ;)
