The Wheels in my head are turning....
Only if there was a way to put it back to stock after I had my way with it. Like it never happened...

If you have access to someone who can sew, it's easy enough to buy some foam, cut it to shape, and make a seatcover that pretty much matches the original. You can even make it a three piece so you can work with seatbacks and center speaker as separate items, which is what I'll do if I put a small sub inside the cabin. That way the original can just go in a bag in your garage.

Hows the sound quality? Does it sound muffled at all?

Holy zombie thread revival Batman!!
That's pretty ghetto.
It sounds a bad as it looks. If I where on meth I would at lest get proper 6" subwoofers not some co-axle full range door speakers. Then again I would have stuff them in the rear quarter panel.

there also aren't any free-air compatible 6" subwoofers. 6" subs are hard enough to find, let alone decent ones!

That's looking cool. Even Bose personal sound plus has also launched idea of this kind of speakers.



I am also thinking to upgrade my sound system and in this regard, I am thinking to buy a new speaker. I think coaxial ones would be the right pick to replace my vehicle's factory speakers. But confused between too many options. Probably, Rockford Fosgate R1525X2 Prime could be a good option with a low price tag. What are your suggestions?
