You ever see AAA tow guys try to get a lowered car on a towtruck? My old neighbor and my lil bro have lost front bumpers, and the tow guy isn't liable for damage. All tow companies make you sign somethin that they aren't responsible.

Killer DIY tho, especially for maintaining the spare. I love the infinity Q shape controls on their amps, but to save space you may want to check the JBL digital monoblock sup amps, That's what I have in my accord, and it BUMPs, under 1 sq ft footprint too.

 

Really?
I've never had trouble with AAA tow guys.
Lowered Civic, lowered RSX, lowered Accord, and well... s2k's already low from stock.

 

doesn't AAA take like 2 hours to get out there to you?
I think I've heard of this before from people complaining about
it.
I'll just keep my spare and my buddies business card in case
i need a quick tow.

 

just tell them you are blocking traffic
usually gets out there in about 15-30 minutes
when they get there, i just tell them i pushed the car out of the middle of the road.
lol

 

I always use flatbeds whenever possible, but they get bitchy about sending one out. The fork ones suck, always causing damage.

 

VERY CREATIVE IDEA~ For a second I thought you are gonna use the sub as a spare tire in the case of a flat~

If only I was as creative as you, I wouldnt have make a custom BOX. ADD REP FOR YOU~ \o/\o/\o/

 

just let out the air slightly on all your tires. lol

 

Just an update... Progress on mine has slowed significantly because I got laser vision surgery last Mon. Not really allowed to do much (this is the first time I've gotten on FitFreak since then). Hoping to continue work this weekend, will include pics.

 

Finally wrote up a DIY, but put it in a separate thread. Thanks for the help, niko!

 

ive been doin the same exact thing but im putting two 12 inch shallow mount pioneers. instead of cutting in to the floor cover i just took it out completely and replaced it with carpeted plywood thats cut out to fit. the way it looks at yours it doesnt look secure enough just sitting in the spare. i built a box that surrounds the subs and im goin back to the drawing board to see what two 10's and a 15 would look like or look into fiberglassing to come out the sides where those small compartments are.

 

This is an awesome post - want to see more photos towards the finish product!!

 

Here are a few more pictures of my sub box that fills the spare tire storage area. I also built a "shelf" that covers the entire trunk are that allows me to still fill the trunk with stuff and not damage the sub or amp but also provides adequate ventilation (can takes some pics and post if anyone wants to see).

 

damn! that is nice! I've been dreaming about doin this as well but my to do list for my gd is getting longer. it's too cold out to do any work that i want to.

 

..

well honestly i hope u master urs because i was just like u, i love knowing i have the space and i dont want to jepordize it with a big box and amp and all that.. truthfully i dont want something thats gonna boom from a mile a way either.. i was actually looking into a stealth box made by jl audio but 1. they are an arm and a leg, 2. they only have it for the gd so..... but im 3 hrs away from u and if u willing to give me a great price or work something out then shit...lol im down..lol

 

Well you all could go JDM with it and get the puncture kit. My Fit didn't come with a spare and instead has a puncture kit under the board. Saves some weight also since you are adding some with your sub, amp and enclosure.

 

All, I am now selling my version of this setup. Let me know if you're interested!
