it depends on what they are, but doughtfull

edit: sedan or coupe. my sedan has a bar under the sub, which doesnt allow for any depth. coupes dont seem to have the bar there

Well since there is only ONE stock 8" sub I say fitting two is more than doubtful. Looking at the depth of the mounting I would say it definitely is not possible.

a buddy of mine bought a pair of those subs and did a lil DIY home sub with them. Ran about 500w to the pair and they sounded pretty damn good. I thought about running 4 of them in my car but decided to go with one 12. Hmmm... could get all four for 150 shipped. Could be interesting off 1kw. Might look into this further. lol

stop reading the advertisements. Kenwood has never made a sub that could handle 600w/ea.

Anyone care to take a pic or two of the stock sub/location? I have a JL 8" that I'm thinking about putting in my LX sedan...

kenwood makes an amp that u could tap into ur rear speakers if ur going to keep ur stock H U, put u have to run the power cord to ur stock amp so if u turn off ur radio ur subs wont go off.

I'm guessing you're not native to the US because your English is atrocious. I seriously had to read your posts at least 4 times each and I'm still not sure I understand what you're saying. I'm not saying I'm an English teacher or a professional writer but man, think about what you're trying to say before you hit "Submit Reply."

Well, where are you going to place them? Are you going to run them infinite baffle, sealed or ported? How much output are you looking for? What kind of music do you listen to? Lastly, what's your budget and do you care if it's brand new or is used ok?

umm i want to find aftermarket subs that hit hard and can be placed in the stock sub positioning and not in the turnk but if it comes down to it i will buy 2 10"s.. but i'm not sure about sealed or ported and idk about output or wat it is.. and i listen to deep bass rap/hip hop and occasionaly punk/screamo rock and budget under $600 and used or new is okay.
