I had the day off work today and I remembered I had a sub kicking about in my loft, so I thought I'de get that up and running in the coop for something to do, I found all the wiring which was suprisingly still all there. I spent about two hours messing about feeding the power wire through the tiny weeny little hole in the engine bay, then through passenger door and back in the car and under all the carpet along the passengers side, then fed the phono cables etc through the front console behind the head unit, along the middle of the centre console and out below the ashtray and under the carpet in the back, then took out the rear seats and fed them all through the boot and then ...

ROTF, good effort! I like how you even tried to remove the boot seal to get it in!

I remember Stan

I had a similar situation with my Rover coupe, which has a ridiculously shallow entry to the boot!!

I have one of these tucked behind my passenger seat. Fits nicely \:\)
