What happens if you get a flat tyre, or your tyre blows (meaning you cant use that space filler crap in a can)?

There is also a panel that covers the woofer so you can put stuff in the boot.

driftpig01 Member 67 Member For: 19y 5m 23d Location: "NORTHERN GOLD GOAST" Posted 07/04/06 04:17 AM Author Share Posted 07/04/06 04:17 AM Sorry about the lateness of my reply had to duck interstate, will take some more photos on the weekend, no I did not cut a hole in the carpet, however did make some small slot at the rear to allow a little more stretch. You will have to turn the spare tyre up the other way and take out the piece of board so the extension where the subwoofer sits inside the tyre. FYI the sub box is about 48l, it has 2 50mm ports which are 78mm long it is tuned to 32Hz and the port have a coefficient less than 0.15 so they don’t whistle. The port size and length will be different for every woofer.
