I posted this over on the nearly 50 page Hansshow Audio Upgrade thread ... but since that one can be so overwhelming.
Well, the Rockford Fosgate P300-8P will fit in the factory location!!
I installed the sub along with the Hansshow DIY harness. My SR is a 12/19 build so I have the rear parcel speakers. But my harness had those left and right reverse, so I had to switch the wires (there is a youtube video out there about it).
It sounds so much better now. I haven't compared it to the premium stereo in our LRY. Overall I think it is very similar, but the SR definitely has more bass!
I tapped the signal off the Hansshow harness and got power and ground from under the seat. I took the audio
signals from the front woofers. I tapped into the pigtail that goes connects directly to the car's brains. Pics from Peter..
The bass control knob is mounted with 2 tiny screws in the carpet so you would never see the holes if removed. I wrapped the knob in the same vinyl as my center consol.
Other than the 2" of wire going to the base knob everything is completely hidden. Also everything can be complete uninstalled.
I did bend the bracket near the tail light that is typically for the carpet backing panel, but it could be easily bent back into position.
The sub just barely fits and it mostly just wedged in there with foam. I have 2 brackets coming off the 1 anchor point that I bent. It seems very solid, but was a bit tricky figuring out how to get it in there. I may add another bracket or 2 and I will trim back the foam after I test it out for a bit of time. I also installed some Noico (dynamat).
I need to spend some time adjusting the car's EQ and the settings on the subwoofer, but so far I am very happy!!
