Today I was on a mission to silence my stock subwoofer, When I bought my mountaineer a few weeks ago I didn't realize it even had a subwoofer but after driving around I located it and also realized it was blown.
So I wanted to eliminate the stupid cracking sound so that I could have my nice...crappy stock speakrs :
So I went to work pulling off the plastic peice that covers the sub (what a PITA) I then took all the screws out of the subwoofer and realized...I couldn't take it out..I'm guessing theres something else holding it in from the back? either way I just wanted to make it stop working so I didn't have to hear the crappy noise in the back.
I cut the wires going to the sub and in doing so I remembered that I had a couple subwoofers laying around I bought for about $10 a piece during a discount sale. They were CHEAP.
I wasn't sure if it would even work out so I got some wire and my subs and hooked it up and wala... cheap crappy bass. BUT it sounded 10x better than the blown stock one. I found an old box laying around and just put it all together. Should work til I get up the $ for my system.
I've since then properly done the wires (not with duct tape ha) and put the sub behind the drivers seat to make believe its better than it is
