KEEP the stock look dred, or do a center console like ^^^

Its more impressive IMO to have music that is not seen and still sounds good. I was told by some vendors that it cant be done but I fit a 10" Premier behind the backseat of my dad's old model L200 in a fiberglass enclosure and the seat locks (anyone who had experience with these vehicles should know what little clearance you have back there). I am almost sure you have more space in the frontier. Check SR he go sort you out, or one of the other willing installers... or try a thing yourself.

There's no point in loosing your entire back seat.

ay loud what dimensions u have for the box in the back? you used 3/4 or 5/8 mdf?

The only way the box with the 2 8" DD fit properly in the Frontier was with some mod to the seat.

The seat had to be shimmed 1" with longer bolts and nuts.
The jack bracket had to be removed.
The lock mechanism was also shimmed.

but seat still fully functional and subs sound great.

loundsounds: excellent craftsmanship.

How hard is it to move the seat forward or up a few inches?

trini44 · Posted: Tue Nov 24, 2009 10:13 pm Post subject:

Not hard just 1/2 hr work and $30 in bolts,washers and nuts.
