You gonna fix the carpet in front of the amp so it looks cleaner?
And I feel for 'ya... there's not much option as far as subs in that trunk go. It looks good but the only thing I'd be worried about is stuff moving around in the trunk and damaging the sub. I prefer to have my trunk usable.
You could use some brackets and some bolts to bolt the box to the floor (even though the floor isn't solid, who cares... this is just to keep it from sliding around), and put a speaker grille over the sub. Then it would be pretty secure and you wouldn't have to worry as much about stuff damaging the sub.
I took an entirely different approach with my box though. Had a guy build me this...

thanks guys =]
trust-yeah i just need some more of those clips to hold the carpet in place. since right now it doesnt have any lol. And yeah the box for the sub has little metal flaps to hang it up or tie it down to the floor ( in his pickup it was hanged from the wall. so it wouldnt move around)
thats a nice set up! your trunk looks clean.
i have 2 10 inch kickers in my sedan but i think i want to dynomat the trunk before i put anything bigger in the del sol.

So i noticed that my gas pedal doesn't come down all the way. if the car is idleing and i push on the gas, after i let off the gas the car idles at about 1,100. but when i push the pedal up with my foot it goes down to normal.
Im guessing a spring or something on the pedal/cable is worn out or something?
any ideas on what it might be?
also... when i push on the clutch, and release it slowly.. it makes like a spring stretching noise or soemthing like that. any ideas what it might be?
i knew i would have to replace the clutch sooner or later... but this is too soon haha.

So i went out to Summit Racing today and got me a B&M Shifter for 46 bucks. and some ES black Bushings! haha now i just need to figure out how to install it since i never done it before. gonna go try it in a bit..lol
#30
well right now i got a few questions on the install..lol https://www.hondacivicforum.com/foru...ad.php?t=84818
also, the stock shifter comes with some bearings at the bottom where it hooks up to the shift linkage. and the B&M didnt, so im not sure if im supposed to use the ones that came with the stick one, or just leave as is.
