POWER to the Stereo system that is! A Clarion APX201.2 200W Power Amplifier and a Bazooka NOS-8 Subwoofer Speaker System.

There's a couple of places that make shelves. I wanted one fast since I'm headed up north next week and Glen & Pat happen to have one in stock. Here's their site:

The whole darn car rattles if I turn the base up too much. I gotta keep in on the lowest setting. These old ears can't too much of that base!

Carey,
Thats sweet!![:X]
And looks hecka nice!!!
Glad you were able to get it in there. Wheres the amp?

Yours rattles?
Im running a 800watt actually 300-400watts RMS, ah, Boss amp with a Polk/Momo 12" sub. With all settings at half and the bass boast on the CD player on +2. Mind does not rattle untill turned to +4 or higher on the remote gain located by my drivers seat.

OF course I have insulated the heck out of most of the rear pillars, stock speaker areas and some of the roof liner. So maybe that helps mine? [:I]

It sure sounds good though, and is noticable as a "system" while driving.

Only goes louder when windows are down or entertaining occupants in vehicle.

Colby,

Clarion amp is under the front drivers seat. Adjustment are facing out towards the door so I can turn down or up the whole thing whenever the occation arrises. Yea, the first time I turned it on the seat and steering wheel were buzzing/thumping and I knew it was adjusted to high.

They were selling them at the show in Daytona and I believe if you bought a picture of yourself in your cruiser on the track, it came with the picture. If you contact the organizers of the show http://www.firstcoastptcruisers.org/ they are the ones that were selling the sticker so maybe they will sell you one or two. They come in black, white and silver.
