Well I talked to Crutchfield, and they reaplced my subs, etc, however I also blew my amp AFTER I blew my subs (from my own ignorance), so I needed a new amp.
Went to BestBuy, got like a 700ish watt Rockford Fosgate, and they had this deal that landed me 2 FREEEEE 10" Dual subs! Sweet! Not exactly thundering subs, but I had a plan for em'.
They're going in the front of my car on the floor in a little box.
Here's a couple pics of how far I got tonight on it.

As you can see it's not especially big.. I'm kinda of worried about how good it'll sound being that cramped, but I couldn't get it any bigger where I'm squeezing it in.
It's going to go into the middle part of the front seat.. where a floor/stick shifter usually is, but since I have column (Park Avenue, not Alero) there's a bunch of open space!
I test fitted the subs in and the holes are awesome! Considering I don't have a very good jigsaw I'm happy with them.
Anywho, I'm hoping to finish it/ get a lot farther tomorrow. Basically just the top and angled piece left to do on it, then make sure it's sealed decently and get the wires and such.
I'm not sure how I'm going to upholster it yet... either with carpet the same as my interior floor, vinyl the same color as my leather seats, or some fake leather or something the same color. Suggestions?
Finally, along down the road a bit I'm hopefully going to add one of the Oznium LCD TVs to the top of it, as well as put my switches there, too. However, instead of putting holes in the top of the box I'll make a little small tray box to add to the top of it with said TV, switches, and if I'm feeling ambitious I'll make a CD holder there, too! (the cd's in my car now just slide around on the back seat)
So that's about it, I'm pretty happy so far since I don't do like.. ANY woodwork, lol.. comments? Questions? Criticism?
Lets hear it!
