6x9 speakers...not in the usual place

Just made this yesterday.They sound pretty good back there.Trunk acts sorta like a box.
Later on ill mount them from the back so i can install grills up front.

Still have speakers in the rear panels.Just wanted a grilless look.Cause i like the look of perforated leather, matches the door panels/seats.

Thanks guys, really glad how this worked out.Was originally mounting my amps there, but they did'nt fit.So on a whim i decided to try the speakers.

Re: 6x9 speakers...not in the usual place

nice. A couple of 8" free air subs would probably do well there also

Thanks. Unfortunately I don't think 8" subs would fit.the space top/bottom is barely 8.5".Might put a 8" bass tube by the amps though.
