I was trying to figuer out a way to put a Subwoofer in my 4Runner any ideas??

 

do you have a stock head unit? if so definately get an aftermarket one. what are you looking for in a sub?

 

welcome to yotatech!

search on here and you will see lots of creative ways people put them in

some have put them in boxes and mounted them to the floor behind the seats and some have accualy put them in the pannels
it all depends on what you want to do

 

head unit??? and i wanna do just a single 10 for now.

 

head unit, stereo, receiver, they are all the same thing. whatever you want to call it. putting in one 10' sub would require a new "stereo" w/ sub out wires in the back, an amp, amp wiring kit, the sub and sub box. its easier than it sounds. about 400 to 500 dollars later you are impressing your friends.

 

Oh haha yea we've done it all i got a 2001 chevy that has a Alpine Deck iPod ready and a alpine E10 Subwoofer in it like what im trying to figuere out is the best way to securely set the Sub Box into the back of the 4runner and not be easy to take haha.

 

Bolt it to the floor.

 

are you building a box or just buying a pre-fab one?

 

yea but what about the sub itself...But yea i would like to build one so it would probalby house the sub better i was thinking.

 

i dont think that someone is going to go unscrew screws just to steal your speaker
as long as your box is bolted down, i think your good

 

haha u never know. But i was thinkin of maybe making like a cover over it so it just looked like a square box in the back.

 

first look at the volume specification for the sub. then use an angle finder and find out the angle of the rear seat. once you have both then find a "sub box wizard" on the internet where you can type in the volume needed and angle of the box. built that ind either bolt it to the floor or screw it to the back of the seat

 

well, putting something solid over it would not work, i really do not think that you could do that and the sub still sound good

 

True commando but ill just have to see what i can do i just need to see some pics of what others have done maybe to give me an idea on what is possible.

 

Use a gas can, works great.

 

a gas can..lol

 

um, i made a little amp in a gas can, its just a little 20 watt amp with a 4 inch speeker?, a one inch tweeter(i think thats the size), a 12 volt power supply, and a battery in a 2 gallon gas can

 

Thats pretty cool haha.

 

Ah yeah, a gas can:

 

question is does it sound good?
