update on this install.

I have to make a new box for 2 12s instead of the 3.

Seems that the customer after spending a week with the car says its WAY TOO LOUD!
When we went over the build he was told this car would blow your ears away and it seems that he didnt believe me when i Told him that.Well suffice to say he has gotten 2 tickets for the sound system and now wants to step down from 3 subs to 2 in the hopes it wont get him in trouble!!
How i love that complaint !!!!

Switching from 3 to 2 probably isn't worth his effort. We're talking less than 1.5dB difference on the same power. Why not install an LPL to let him turn it down from the dash?

Those come with the amp to keep the label getting scuffed I think. I assume they would be removed in the finished install.

yes the tags were removed after install.The amps we under the trunk mat and not visible.Hopefully next go arround he lets me show more but this guy is a bit neurotic.
I suggested a lpl but hes dead set on steping down to two subs
