In most higher end convertibles we work on, we do a JL 8" woofer (custom fiberglass enclosure and completely stealth) on the floor under the dash of the passenger side, still allowing enough leg room for a passenger. It's the best way to get clean bass , but is not going to be "glass shattering." If you're willing to lose more leg room, we could squeeze a 10" woofer in there. Either option would run right in your budget range. Otherwise, we could definetly do an enclsoure in your trunk for the 2 12's...but I wouldn't exactly recommend it. Come by SoundAdvice on Columbus and Dale Mabry and one of the salesman would be happy to go over a couple options with you.
hey man thanks alot, i really appreciate the advice, the only reason i wanted to use those subs was because i used to have them in my 00 cougar and they were badass but yeah i could always get something different, also is the sub suspended off of the ground, you say up under the passenger side dash is it like facing down towards the floor cause i think that'd be pretty freaking cool and alot more well...theft resistant. i wouldnt want someone to walk by and see my equipment and cut my top or something. but yeah like i said thanks man definately have to head up there this weekend
