kid_red's 2006 Mazda Mazda5This is my Mazda 5 Platinum Silver with touring package. So far I've added a stubby antenna, installed the AuxMod for my iPod and recently installed an Alpine F250 and Image Dynamics 8" subwoofer.

kid_red's 2006 Mazda Mazda5 I've also just added the roof rack and recently picked up some 'eyelids'.

As for the stereo, it lacked bass. So I had to come up with an idea to solve my lack of bass dilemma. There was no place to put a subwoofer and I didn't want to waste precious cargo room. So, my wife came across he rear compartment and it looked deep enough for a JL Audio 6". However, someone suggestedkid_red's 2006 Mazda Mazda5 the ID8 sub that it would fit in a fiberglass enclosure. I had never done fiberglass before so I did a lot of research before I felt confident enough to jump in. I will show how I made mine and took a ton of pictures.

So, go on and see my installation process and I hope someone can take something from it.

You mean for the polyfill? That's in the fabric section, they stuff it into pillows.

Very nice job. I'm trying do a similar job using your instructions. What section of Wal-Mart did you get your sound dampening material from.

Msking that Sub out of that space was awsome.
