What is the source you're using and how's your imaging, soundstage, and depth?

Also...you CAN relocate those wiring bundles in the kicks up into the dash area for more room...

I'm using Clarion's NX 501 -all in one headunit.

Not known for its SQ - but its a good all arounder with decent NAV.

I did relocate the wiring blocks all the way up under the dash (about 14 inches away from where they were originally)

Personally I think it ends up sounding pretty damn good considering how narrow the cabin is. The stage is high and up front - the depth is pretty good (although not always at the end of the hood like some cars I've built)

At its first IASCA show (my first show in over 10 years) it got second in class SQ - (1st place was a much bigger vehicle with similar setup)

once I build 6.5"s up front / add the second sub (sealed up front) and tune it, its going to sound amazing (I think)

I'm kinda thinking Dayton RS28F's in the A-pillars (padded down a bit and off axis ) - ALONG with the TangBand Bamboo 3.5" (Also in the pillars - almost on axis) - and maybe even the Peerless SDS 6.5 in the kicks (rather than the TangBand underhung or the Type X).

Well...with that said, we should have you show up at Keith McCumber's shop in Coquitlam BC next year to make a Yaris statement! You in Amateur or a Pro/Am class?

You may not need it, but on the pillars, that little white Molex plug is the antenna. That plug can be removed IIRC and the wire can be soldered. Space savings.

The coquitlam event(s) will be in the spring and summer of next year. The season is pretty much done for this year.

I'll keep you guys in the know in this section.

However, shopping for ugly femal pants in the women apparel boutique is not a pleasent experience

Ha, those are some Sexy Modern Edgy Generation pants you got there!

Thank you

There was a bunch of stuff that I felt I could have done better

The next iteration will have nicer kick panels and maybe two-way a-pillars

Love the Pre-Mitek Xtants!

Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If only I had the skill and patience to do the work you completed.

Deadliestflea · 09-11-2014, 10:24 AM

super clean install! love the mid bass! i need to step up my setup now!

sqcomp · 12-04-2014, 05:01 PM

Love the pre-Mitek Xtant amps.

I recognize those passives.

Next time you do pillars, look at angles and placement on the tweeters. I say that having used those tweeter locations before off active EQ'ing. I just looked at you pillar and doors again...The sedan is a bit different. A sail panel location would widen the stage a bit, but, no sail panels in the hatch unfortunately.

^ Old pillar setup that helped place highest points in class for IASCA in 2011.

Derick and I have a lot of tuning track recommendations if and when you need. We both are good people to lean on with placement and tuning questions.
