    Detailed Pics of Subwoofer

    Well I found a stock subwoofer that I was thinking if I could modify it for a 10" woofer or put a different 8" one in. It's 1 ohm which i could have sworn someone said speakers were 2 ohm. Here are the pics. The box is bigger than I thought. I fit 22 liters in there so about 0.78 cubic feet.

    Can't close sunroof going 80mph or higher.

    I was on the interstate going with the flow of traffic. It was finally nice and the sun set and I was wanting to close the roof. It said "Sunroof Position Not allowed. Please reduce speed" Thought that was kinda of weird. i've never had a car not let me close the sunroof due to speed before lol.
