******** and spare tire install question - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

BriCo84 · 11-08-2010, 09:27 AM

This question is for owners of a ******** box and a compact spare tire.

1. Are you able to access your spare tire after the install (assumming you are using the larger driver side subbox, and the passenger side amp rack)?

2. Is there enough room for all the wiring even with the spare tire there?

Nice looking setup. Is that a ********box or a custom enclosure you built yourself?

Can you also post some pics of your wiring if its not too much trouble. Im interested to see how you fit everything down there with the spare tire there

Really wiring pretty straight forward , power wire from battery to amp, ground to bolt that also attaches battery ground cable. Those are the only 2wires that go under spare tire (plenty of room) speaker wires are just tucked in around sides to sub box, signal wires also run up to rear speakers from amp.

Anyone with the ******** enclosure would have the exact same problem. I have the ******** enclosure and it literally looks exactly like the one above. Im really hoping I dont get a flat now haha bc its gonna be a pain in the butt to get the spare out now.

Since I haven't installed it yet I am not sure about this, but is the subbox and amp rack mounted in somewhere? Like with a bolt? Or can it be easily disconnected and taken out?

Have both pieces, but not installed them yet. Still working on the rest of the system.

If it's something your worried about you can always cut the carpet and put some velcro under it to hold it down.

I have the ********/Kicker Stealth boxes installed and have no problem getting into my spare tire compartment. I trimmed the carpet so it doesn't go under the enclosures very far so it will be easy to remove. None of the wires are in the way either. ******** has an awesome setup!
