Yeah I still been looking at this one and prob will go for it well at least for my first one.

@adrimo I do enjoy building stuff feel good after you have achieved it but I just want it all sorted now as I tried to do the drilling for the door speaker wire yesterday but couldn't remove the wing panels/bumper.

Separate note how do I remove the side skirt is it just the two pins in the rear arch then slide it or something I just don't want to snap "anymore" clips ;( lol cheers

Shape not a real issuse and you can use a box maker program which gives you measurements then just give it to wood shop to cut then glue, screw and carpet it.

There is nothing wrong with mixing brands and having a ready made sub/box combo.

I have never heard fli but if JJ recommends at least take a listen if you can.

Car audio is not like a remap where everyone gets the same map and loves the extra 30bhp, it's very subjective.

Re: TV touch screen ?

Ok so from your point of views guys what's better then enclosed or with the hole then ?

And yeah was on,y looking at them tubes due to it being less space but didn't know if they still give out the good bass etc ! And yeah I have been looking at 8" and 10" won't go no bigger than than well not in the fortwo them sizes are plenty big enough I think !

I was only asking on the placement of it as @problemchild I was thinking of just buying a sub and making my own box but kinda wanted to know the best placement so I could build it properly ! But then if I build my own don't it have to be certain size and shape to work properly ?

Re: TV touch screen ?

8" will be fine......

why not build your own enclosure

Re: TV touch screen ?

1. The vent is called a port, this basically makes the sub think its in a bigger box and the size of it tunes the bass to different frequencies, but basically gives lower deeper bass. Generally a sealed box will give a tight faster bass response. But remember I'm talking generally as there will be lots of variations in between.

2. I have never had a bass tube, I have heard them namely bazooka and they can be just as good as a box but use a smaller sub and less space.

3. Size really depends on taste, I have mostly had 10's, I like them as they are more weightier than an 8 but take up less space than a 12, my last car had 2 10's at one stage but in the smart 1 is more than enough, I may consider a 12 in the future depends how board I get.

4. Experiment. Generally they fire backwards towards the rear, at the moment mine is in a box designed to fire downwards, across is fine but I don't think facing forward is good for a hatch, this will mainly be used in saloon/cabrio cars where it will be fired through the ski hatch.

There is no definitive answer do what sounds best for you.

Re: TV touch screen ?

Sorry guts I no this has already been discussed but can't find it.(the thread) the sub I was going for is too big so back to looking again few sub questions thou--

1) what's the different between the subs with and without the air intake holes in them ??

2) what's people's views on the bass tubes does anyone run these or have tried them out ??

3) what is a good and the biggest sub size I should go?? Ie: 8"? 10"? 12"?

4) what is the best way the sub should be facing ie: to the boot,to either side of the rear wings or sub facing the seats ??

Re: TV touch screen ?

Ok so just zero everything put mids in doors and go from there it just there is a massive difference in the the original ones and the new ones ! But it will show more when I get them in the doors i guess !

Re: TV touch screen ?

If the speakers look ok no rips or tears it should be fine. And mid-bass will be better when in the door, the crossover for the speakers will stop it getting the low bass frequencies as it's designed to do a specific job, for testing connect to the amp direct with no crossover, do not do this with the tweeter though.

You should buy a speaker kit of silent oat deadening about £20, check caraudiodirect
Site, then put around speaker and inside of door while you fit speakers.

On crossover leave switch on 0db
On amp turn both gain down, turn freq to 0, then leave switch on full


Only when your ready to set up properly then adjust these, just turn gain up a bit for testing.
