You can do that if you like... but I still prefer my setup and it was worth every penny!

I have since changed the position of the tube, I got rid of the straps. The tube moved around to much.

Its such an awesome set up. I have it pressed up against the back seat parallel to the back seat. It is held in place by a single 6 inch bracket bent at a 90 degree angle screwed into the top of the tube, and the back seat. Has not budged in 6 months.

I'll post my tips. I bit off of another forum member.

10 min.

For future reference, install the bazooka yourself.

Dude I stood in amazement when I was able to change shower heads, and use water sealing tape correctly. Like I built a castle.

I would not be able to install the tube myself.

You should have seen me Saturday for two hours trying to figure out if I put a drop in filter correctly. Its some sad shit man.

My girl tells me oh my car is making funny noises, so I pop the hood and say oh timing belt looks good, carburetor's ok, lets take it in to get looked at. Like I know what I am talking about. So I don't look impotent.

100 Watt. [ame="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002QYS8W/ref=oh_details_o03_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1"]Amazon.com: Bazooka BTA8100 BT Series 8-Inch 100-Watt Amplified Tube Subwoofer: Car Electronics[/ame]

Having been through the HS years with the crazy system I was very skeptical of going with an inexpensive choice like the Bazooka. In the end I picked the BTA10250D on sale for $125 and gave it a shot, it was too cheap to pass up.

It's light, easy to remove quickly, and sounds surprisingly good. It adds more than enough bass. Best bang for the buck I have seen yet for this car. Highly recommended.

First post!

The bazooka tubes do put out a surprising amount of bass for their size and wattage. I was about to buy one for mine as they are really easily removed for track days when I found this guy.

A little pricey but it is tiny and has the amp built in and is easily removable (1 molex connector and 2 straps)

'Zookas weren't cheap when I was in high school, but then again, that was when you could build most of the amps available from parts at Radio Shack. Ask me how I know... Only up until about early/mid-2000's, they were twice the price.

If'n you aren't going to audio competitions, this will work in most hatches for less money and with 80-95% effectiveness.

I was so scared a bazooka tube was some sort of ridiculous exhaust.
