Thinking about adding a sub and upgrading the front speakers. Did my brother's 90's Lazer back in the day and it sounded really good. Had 5 1/2" mids in the door and a set of 3 1/2" and 1" tweaters in the dash with a 12 in the hatch.
Was thinking of 2 routes, first one would be a removable box/sub amp in the hatch with a single 10" so I can ditch it for track days. Second would be replacing the stock rear speakers with 8" subs.. Anybody got any ideas they can share? -------------------- 92 Eagle Talon TSI AWD "The Black Golfball" How fast can a 14B go???

I would go the removeable box route. I've played around with those rear speakers a lot, and I've never been happy with the sound. It has a lot to do with the direction they face. Put a box in the hatch, and play with the positioning (bounce the sound off the back, off the glass, etc.) and see what soundst the best. Plus, you can't beat the ability to shed that weight at the track.
