Saturday mods. Exhaust tips and a bazooka tube.

It's been a long day. I will post pics in 10 min. Got my bazooka installed. 8 inches was perfect. I still have 3/4 of the trunk available. The guys who installed this had no clue what they were doing. It was sadly amateur hour. I've got to hide some wires myself. End result is fine.

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

10 min.

I can't wait to see how it fits. My buddy had a bazooka tube in his F150... it really it's all you need to fill out the low end when your stock system isn't crap.

My Jeep's stock stereo blew majorly but I worked at a job that gave me steep discounts on mobile audio equipment. I got most of that system torn out and ready to go in my FR-S or sell. I might go a different route though in the interest of saving weight.

I've never been out to smash windows but high fidelity audio is important to me.

These are 3 8" JL w3v2s in a customer fiberglass enclosure filled with acoustic foam hooked up to a JL 500/1 set low. Combined with some polk components powered by a JL 300/4 and a high end pioneer head unit with 5v pre-outs. It was beautiful.

Most bazooka tubes are amplified (meaning the amp is part of the package).

Yeah it's amplified.

I'm happy I still have a trunk, and the sound is good. Feel like I'm 17 again. Lol. I haven rocked bazookas in 15 years.

I used to own a Wrangler as well - it never occurred to me to put anything expensive in there. =)

Are the exhaust tips matte to begin with? I like the look.

They are matte black. DC sports Bolt on exhaust tips item number EX 1011B from Pep Boys. I think they were $25 each.
