My Sub Upgrade
Upgraded the EPS system in my d with a pair of Jehnerts under the seats and a Morel Ultimo SC 10" in a homemade epoxy glass enclosure in the trunk. Powered by a JL XD 400/4. I was planning on getting some (better) matching carpet but just got tired of looking at 'glass. Definitely improves the low end but the EPS system still needs a bit more EQ work which I plan to do with a MiniDSP. A Zapco DC amp would have worked better but I already had the JL sitting around without a home.
Big thanks to Don Amann (6spdcoupe) of Unexpected Creations and Technic for his kick ass harnesses and support he provides to the community .

Very nice, clean install.
I'm looking to do something similar with a Zapco as well. I'm assuming you have a Logic 7 stereo, and the subs under the seats were just a straight swap? How much difference do the Jehnerts make as a direct swap? |

I have the EPS stereo, but it was a straight swap. I never tried them with the stock amp, but with the JL I thought it definitely improved the lower end. I still felt a bit more was needed, I'm not a base head, just felt it was missing a bit. It also needs some eq work but I imagine it would be a bit different with the Logic 7.

I don't know the specs of the stock Logic7 amp and which subwoofers would pair well with it. |

In regards to mine, Musicarnw only makes the setup one way.

Putting it IN the battery door lets you keep 100% of the trunk floor area. The woofer the OP used doesn't need more room. |

The only tool my car came with is for the sunroof. Don't plan on using that anytime soon or do I regularly need access to the battery. On that off chance I do the sub easily comes out with one bolt.
