Anybody done this? I just bought a sweet one with only 27K miles. I have a really nice stereo with Alpine 9853, ipod interface, Alpine Amps, It would look as though there is no place to put a sub in this truck. If anybody know about this, I would appreciate being educated.
Oh, yeah, that's right. They put those bins in there, didn't they? From what I remember of the Tacoma, my approach would be to either build or buy something that would fit into one of those bins. If you make a tight enough face that will fit the bin, and then port it somewhat properly, you will get some effective bass response out of it. I would take the lid off the bin behind the driver's seat.
One thing you need to understand about low frequencies: they are non-directional. You can place a bass speaker just about anywhere in a car and it will make no difference. It's kind of like a garden hose with a nozzle on it: the high frequencies are like the stream spray; wherever you point it is going to get wet and surrounding areas will stay drier. Bass is like having it set to shower; it may not be as hard hitting as the stream, but you cover a wider area.
