So finally getting around to upgrading the stereo on my '74 914

We did replace the factory deck with a CD / aux input deck a while ago.

Looking at replacing the speakers.... I've found many threads on what works for those.

But lots of people mention building a box for the passenger footrest to house a subwoofer. I can't find any pics of that..... built but not installed, or installed!

I have a center console and was thinking of just getting a 6" tube subwoofer and putting it in there, ideas on that?

trying to do this from my phone.... I don't expect the links to work. Wish this forum was on Tapatalk!

Because of this link....

speaker pics


I'm thinking of adding these to the speakers in the kick panels...

And then one of these either behind the Passenger seat or at the passenger seat footrest...

But then I'm also looking at just this in the passenger seat footrest....

I do like the 914 Rubber speaker mounts but they are on backorder. I also really like the custom sub mounts but I don't know squat about car stereos so not sure I would want to mess with an amp and all that.


So........... since I'm indecisive I'll just go ahead and replace the carburetor and figure this out later.
