Digndoug, you could always build kick panels and then put the 6.5" drivers(I'm assuming they're for midbass) in the doors...I wouldn't want to compromise my leg room in my car though personally. You could put them in the rear, but I'm not a fan of rear fill, and I think it might sound a bit funny having the midbass come from behind you.

And to hollandceli, I'd try a boat repair shop or an autobody supply shop. I got my last gallon from Home Depot, but I hear it's cheaper at boat repair shops...too bad I live in a desert.
