go to www.imageshack.com
click on browse
select the pic's from your computer
click host
it will bring up a bunch of different links, copy the text marked thumbnail for forum and paste it into your corvette forum post.
when you post your reply, it will show the pic, not the text

Im thinking behind the driver seat?


Mounted mine directly to the top of the sub box and then to the rear deck carpet.


Keep them both covered with a nice custom carpeted cover with a metal screen over the sub.

I love the W7's. I have had them for 3+ years now...back in the day I had the hookup through my dealer and I was literally one of the first people to have the W7's and they have treated me well!

Illmac - Everything looks great! Glad my guide helped.

I mounted 2 V series Alpine amps behind my seat ... most guys have trouble driving my car though because they can't get the seat back far enough. Otherwise it's fine. Good luck to ya.

I know this is totally off topic, but since you guys are into systems ... I need some advice. All of you guys' cars look incredible by the way. I am wanting to upgrade my alpine amps that are ancient and was thinking about going with 3 Audison 2-channel 400's. Do you think they are worth the cash'ola? If not ... what do you recommend in their place? Any advice would be appriciated.

Dont know how much power the MB's need, but I am using a PG Tantrum 600.4.

150 to each front component (CDT's) and other two channels are bridged running 300 to my JL 10w6. More than enough power for me.

Sorry to be off topic, but I notice you are from Naperville...you ever go to many cruise nights? I am from Wheaton...

My amp is mounted under the passenger's seat. It just fits, but you can still slide the seat.
