Might be a tight fit! But good luck and post pics as you go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had two alpine R type 12"s in my ba ute years ago running off an m1000... Was loudddddd. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if you don't end up using both subs you could always just sell one off.The spacer should be easy to make for the front speakers, just mark one up out of mdf.

I swear I saw a amp somewhere in a mag I think that allows the hookup of factory system speakers.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
