I finally put on a sticker that I bought nearly a year ago. The Shocker!

I put it in the rear quarter glass behind the driver. I figure it's the least obtrusive for the driver (me)... and also the most visible to other drivers. hehe.

I also figure that it would be a good litmus test to whether (or how) I would get along with someone. Of course, it's a HUGE indicator of the kind of person I am.

I'm wondering what you'd do if you were to get a favorable response to that sticker from a big 400 pound beast of a woman that wants to be stuck and pounded...

Subs determine amp
amp determines power needs
Transitive property.

2 cvrs and 750 watts rms put me at the threshold of pain. You compete?

I suppose. You don't need to run the subs at the maximum RMS rating, but they definitely won't be as loud.

Myself, I have a Sundown SAZ1500D and two SA12 subwoofers. Actually, it's the same equipment that ALL4SPL has in his Fit.

I drove it... like every other day.

The Fit has to be the most boring car I have owned...

-it always starts
-nothing ever breaks
-hardly ever needs maintenance
-stop for gas every 4 to 5 weeks

WTF!

No I didn't and I believe they are built in. They blink at the same rate as the bulbs so it works!
