What can I fit?

Ok, I want maybe some 15s, 12s, or something in the area circled, and i was wanting to put an amp on the part to the right. What can I fit in the part circled? If anything?

GM purposely put that well (where your t-top bag is, the part to the left of the circle) for subs. Ofcourse, when the first of the third gens came out, no body used subs in cars yet(not untill '84). But someone traveled back in time and put it into the original blue prints.


Actually, our cars are some of the best stock configurations for custom systems. Get a tube, or box, or whatever makes you happy, and drop it into that hole. Forget about storage!!

This what I have in my 1987 305 trans am!!









I hit 140.6db at the dash!!


Won Third place in the 101-250 power class!!

Not bad considering I have:
-Sony Xplod cd player
-Clarion EQ
-Radio Shack 100 watt amp ( run the mid, midbass, and highs)
-Pofile Baja 150 watt amp (not brigded, and running the subs)
Profile active Subwoofer crossover
2 12" Lanzar LXR (6 years old) subs
Pyramid tweeters, 4x6's in the dash
Sony Xplod 6x9's in the back
Kicker passive crossovers on mid's and midbass
And a custom box I designed for the car!!!

Most people were shock by what I had in my car at the SPL show over the xmas holidays. I competed with guys who had $2000-$3000 systems with Kicker and Rockford fosgate amps and very costly Subs but only hit 130-135db at the dash. I think that it depends on how a person installs their equpiment in their car, and not how much money they spend on it!!!

boom,
RPettway
