240 Speakers, one mo' time 200

Unless you want it to be showy, I would really try to keep the stock grills, and put some black acousically transparent material between the grill and the speaker. With such great visibility of the speakers, being so high on the doors, to look "not stock" is to invite theift. The more you keep your car looking original, the less likley theifs are to pay attantion as they walk past it in the walmart parking lot while window shopping for free stereo gear. My 240 has about 1500 worth of stereo in it, and it is all very well hidden. Also, if your head unit is in the upper dash, move it to the lower. Its harder to see down there, and once again, especially with the face removed, may go un-noticed by theifs. Hiding bigger speakers on the rear deck is a little more difficult, but can be accomplished by getting material similar to the cloth on the rear deck, streaching it over the deck, to cover the holes, and bottom mounting the speakers.


Whatever you do, good luck and enjoy your new sound.

P.S. one dvc audiobahn sub pulling 400 watts rms from a us amp, a Blaupukt san jose mp3 playing head unit, and infinity kappa mids. Sup?
