about the middle of the car more toward the front of your door to start and then they go backwards from there. do you have bolt on or weld on?

They go directly under your seats, underneath the car, from front to back.

Do the bolt on ones just bolt straight into your floor pan or what? Fivepointooh, are your subs full length or non full length?

From what I've gathered you need to take your carpet out before welding any in, at least if you like your carpet.

Remember if you run bolt ons all your doing is tearing holes in the bottom of your car
