I completed another audio project that I've been wanting to accomplish for awhile. The owner before the one I purchased the car from, decided it would be nice to take out his rear speakers before selling it, so I bought the car with no back speakers. I had always had the intentions of putting ones back there but I had no idea if the brackets were gone, or if there was even speaker wire there in the first place. So, I took off the panels and looked back there, both were still there. But I decided to do something else besides putting 6.5" speakers in the factory location. I decided to buy 6x9 boxes from my work, and add some 6x9 speakers to the back hatch instead of putting the stock ones in their location. I went out and bought some Sony 6x9's (normally I'm not a fan of Sony, but these speakers at my work (Best Buy), were the hardest hitting 6x9 while still containing clarity), and bought the boxes. The speaker wiring was a hack job, so I re-did all the wiring and put loom around the speaker wiring for minimum interfence. I also used some spare Dynamat to line the inside of the boxes, worked amazingly. I never knew how much of a difference rear speakers made until I realized what I missed when I didn't have them. Who needs a sub when you have two clear, hard-hitting 6x9's? I'd highly suggest this to anyone looking for bass on a budget. Here are some pics of the overall project completed, has anyone else done this before?

Pics look like crap because of night-time and flash, but it looks very clean in person.
