240z speaker setup. Help me plz :P

[speedyblue]

72' 240 isn't lying about the alternator. I know more than once I've come home on a rainy night, lights on highbeam, stereo cranking with 3 subs, wipers going and demister fan blasting. Jump in the car the next day and the starter won't turn. Lucky I used to park on a slight hill. I used to kill the stereo demister, and high beam about 2 mins before I stopped just to get a bit of charge back.

My 6x9's are mounted in the front of the toolboxes as EScanlon mentioned, but with 2inch spacers to keep more room in the tool boxes. The treble doesn't suffer too much as the tweeter on the opposite side is in line of site with your head. (tweeters only really work properly on line of site. Anything in the way blocks the sound) But the metal cutting was done by the PO, so it didn't worry me. I think it is the best spot in the car unless you are after extreme sound quality. That would require cutting holes in your door panels.

Just take your time, think it out and buy a sheet of MDF to ensure the speaker is mounted to a solid base.

Have fun
