I've always had my sub in the boot of my car, but with the impending gas installation I needed to find a new solution, and this was the result.

Yeah I know, the way I figured it was if it didn't work I could just head off to the wreckers and get a new armrest.

Turns out theres a metal sheet in the center of the armrest, so we pried the cupholders out and measured up the size and depth of the sub and started cutting, safety first as you can see.

Ran the cables down the center and under the back seat.

To mount the sub we just drilled into the sheet and bolted the sub in

not the most practical of solutions but a bit of fun really.

Doesn't sound too bad untill I try to get a decent volume out of it, but I'm not sure how much that has to do with the fact that its only 250WRMS and how much it has to do with its position.

Then chances are its not.

Subs that require an enclosure will not work well for long without one. You will simply destroy the sub playing it like that.

Go buysome plywood or build the box into the arm rest
