    I went out today to look at options for improving the sound from the standard RNS510 and after talking to numerous "specialists" and being offered everything from $150 DIY 6.5" Sub to a $1500 ++ Custom fibreglass enclosure with a 12 inch sub and monoblock amp.. I decided on a FOCAL BUS25 Slimline Active sub pictured below.

    It is a 10" slimline dual voice coil sub with a 150 watt amp built in... not massive but it will be enough to fill out the low end which is what I want.




    Now to figure out exactly where and how to mount it...

    There is this option... Bass solutions for VW boots..
    Or I can mount it on one side as it is only 80 mm deep...

    I also need to find the time to do all of this...lol

    No more spending..... for now anyway..

    I think you will find the focal sub to be very good. My business is in audio (not automotive i should add) and focal have a good reputation as a high quality, well designed product. Enjoy.

    I have got focal speakers in my ds3, and can i just say that they are fantastic. And yes as Mac said, from what i have seen, Focal have a very good rep. in the audio industry. I thought I would add that I am usually a B&W guy myself, but hearing the focals (especially for automotive speakers) I am thoroughly impressed. Enjoy the bass!

    I have been trying to find a picture of a roof wrap that extends over to the spoiler, but it's curved along the lines of the spoiler. I think it was discussed that it must be painted when Andrew got his wrapped and Carbon Demon done straight line.

    So since I'm getting a Votex spoiler which needs resprayed to CW might as well get them to extend the black roof.

    Cheers guys

    So for those mad modders with too much money here are a couple of pictures of an interesting looking mod that may be worth a look. From what I have read they are a straight bolt on and seem to be around 500 or 600 bucks. Thoughts anyone?

    Hmmm..... I don't know the roc doors are pretty long... It'd be swapping the door width problem for a door height problem..
