Ok so ive been doing a bit of research around and i'm really interested in adding some mid-bass to the car. seeing as that's the one area of sound that sounds the worst in my car. anything 20-100hz sounds great but higher then that to the 5.25 american bass range = nonexistent. i want to make two boxes of some kind to be mounted in the 6x9 deck. each side having the 5.25 speaker as well as a mid-bass driver. not gonna go with the kick panels. any input/experience with this is greatly appreciated

Rear fill up high = instant fail
You want them mounted low. Custom cutouts into the rear molding (for a 2dr car?)
Besides that you will want a crossover to bandpass them.
5.25" speakers dont produce a strong midbass presence. Nature of the beast.
I would put them in a sealed box, around 2 liters or so of air.
If you purchase speakers through me I can test them (T/S Specs if not available) and give you specifics for box sizes.

yea its 2dr. the back end has both seats folded down (indefinitely) with the amp mounted on the larger of the two sides. i have a 80rms x2 amp with a crossover hp and lp. price ranges on some mid woofers?

im more interested in the mid bass drivers that play 50-250hz. but those are some badass speakers

Actually those would work rather well...

How about the arm rest portion...

they are definitely mid woofers, not mid speakers

i was toying with the idea of mounting speakers in the sides of the arm rests. ryan was helping out with that one time or another i believe.
my 1990 cougar had side mounted speakers, i think it sounded much better, even though the speakers were only 5x6

I had a 94 cougar and I custom mounted speakers under the arm rest portion. Worked awesome.
