If you are interested in buying a MTX Thunderform or Q-Box subwoofer that installs in the rear cargo net area, get this...
To install the box or bypass, you must remove the interior rear quarter panel, which includes removing the seat belt with a T50 torx bit. Just because I am a cheap skate, and didn't want to buy a T50 torx bit, because I knew i would never use it again. I found something that works just as good. If you have any of those screw driver bits that go to an electric screw driver or drill. The hex side that goes in the chuck of the drill fits a T50 bolt perfectly, there is just enough room to fit a socket over the rest of the bit. Voila, I probably only saved a $1.00, so unless you use 10-10-200, who cares. HA HA.
 






actually, you know those screwdrivers that usually come in a kit that have those exchangeable bits on 'em? i think at napa you can get a torx head bit for a screwdriver (or drill, i assume) for like $3 or $4. thats probably what im gonna do.
