Re: Buddy bucket issue

Well, here's an update. After searching around, I did find some 6x9 boxes that would fit, and fire the speaker toward the front instead of into the seat. They fit, but I did have to space the seat up some. I used some steel spaces an inch long that I got from Lowes, and they worked perfectly. I cant feel them under the seat when I sit down, and I only put spacer under the front of the seat... I have origional 67 buddy buckets that have been recovered, and anyone that has sat in them knows that there is very little adjustment in them. Just using the spacers in the front actually gave the seat a little lean to it, which I found more comfortable instead of the very straight up seating position they had before. With the added speakers and new headunit, I am more than pleased with the sound now. I may not have some big subs in there to rattle my bones, but I do actually have more bass output and a fuller sound. Just right for the 5 hour trip Im taking in it this weekend. Thanks to everyone for your help!
