Default Installing a JL Audio Stealthbox and a 500/1v2

I have a 2007 with Bose system and Navi. The stealthbox is the v2 version from JL which has 10W3v3's instead of 10W3v2's. The box has already been installed in the car but the amplifier hasn't. I also have the remote bass controller that I'll be putting somewhere.

For amp mounting location i think i will put it where the stock sub is at because i want to keep the glove box usable in case i need to store something.

For sound extraction I will be pulling the audio signal from the subwoofer amp Inputs directly into spliced RCA's (Slash amps have hi-level input directly built-in)

For the remote lead I don't know where to get it from so I need to find that out. For the power I think I will need to run the wire down the passenger side of the car since the battery is on the passenger side.


I leave you with a couple of pictures of the car. These were taken at a photography studio that was taking pictures of the stealthbox for the JL Audio catalog/website.







Any help or direction you guys can give me I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

I broke one of mine too trying to hulk smash it in to the hole in the sheet metal, so I stuff the hole in the stealthbox with some rubbery type speaker sealant I found around the shop, you can probably find it at work.

oh so you just sealed the hole and didnt put the stud back in. so the box is attached by one stud only. I guess that will work.

I need a little more specific description on this type of foam since there's like 10 million kinds of that at work. Is it open cell or closed cell? what color? is it liquid?

You know the stuff that comes with new OEM sentra taillights to seal them against the car's body? THAT stuff. Think of a 1/4" round rubbery solid tube that can be pressed or used to seal stuff and is kinda sticky.
