I ond't think pictures could do this install justice - it's truely a 1 off, you won't see another golf with anything like it! I think someone did take a pic though - hopefuly it'll be up soon.

Title: Re: "custom" boot install
Post by: vw-bob on 03 September 2007, 19:31
ok guys and gals here it is, it something of a wonder how it works.

its made up of a sony head unit, a 12" warrior sub........and the 2 speakers from my bedroom stereo. and thats it!!!!

i have no amp powering anything, it all runs off the head unit. i have been told that it shouldnt work due to the ohm resistance (i think thats what i was told) but it does. and it doesnt sound too bad either!!!!

this is here in all here beauty

you can get in-line low pass/high pass filters which remove the high or low frequencies. try ebay  :wink:

obviously you going for the saving weight idea as its a thourgh bread race car you have there... no amp is one clever way of saving weight.

well done!
