SUB INSTALL FOR RHD CARS

Adrian2073 · Oct 18, 2016

Hi Guys,

There doesn't seem to be much information regarding a sub installation for 6G RHD Mustang, so I thought I'd document my sub install of a JL Audio Stealthbox into a RHD 2017 Mustang GT. Hope it helps.

If you don't mind me asking how much did that cost, it looks almost factory

its listed at USD800 on their web site. I'm pretty sure that's what I paid but I brought it back myself as luggage. Its not a cheap solution but as you said its a factory fit.

Thanks man!
I pick mine up tomorrow. Time to start modifying

I had to make my own for my Rangie. I used a 13" Focal driver.

how hard are these to hook up ?

The sub itself is made to fit where the factory sub goes. JL Audio supply all the hardware. It uses two bolting locations that the factory sub would use plus an additional one near the tail light. The only mods you need to make to the car itself is cutting some small holes in the boot liner to allow the 3 bolts to pass through. Overall not a difficult install. As for the electrics, read my guide attached in the first post

Great write-up and pictures. The instructions seem to follow the LH drive model very closely... Should be good for everyone to use!

What material is that you mounted the amp on?

Adrian2073 · Oct 25, 2016

I used an old sign I had lying around, but it's basically foam board.

Have been requesting more information as to how I'm supposed to install a powered subwoofer in the trunk, and the safest way to do so, but didn't get any replies on the forum. Your post saved me a lot of hassle Adrian!! Thanks a bunch, man!!

One question for you, though! How's the signal from the rear deck? I read somewhere that it was best to use the input signal directly from the factory amp instead.

I haven't hand any issue getting the signal from the rear speakers. Yes its true you can get it from the head unit and line signal is definitely better, but its less critical for a sub. I also didn't feel motivated to pull the dash apart on a new car. Glad I could help

Thanks once again, Adrian!
