Low end in a 2004 Ranger

My G/F's dad wants a little more low end in his 2004 Ford Ranger. There is very little to almost no space, and he really doesn't want much. He also doesn't wanna spend much (less than $200). This is what I found. Any other suggestions? Kicker Comp 8" Kicker KX 100.2Nik

If the kicker sub dosn't fit well then maybe you could fiberglass a box for it.  Bass tubes are overpriced for what you get but they do fit in some tight spaces.

Hey Nick, how ya doing? We've just started selling the new JL W1V2 subs. they're in your price range, they sound great and the best thing for your Ranger they,re much SHALLOWER then any other name brand subs I've dealt with. Checkum' out. TCSS

Hmmm...I might have to check those out. I'll take him to our local shop to listen to them. I never buy anything there because they charge to much and the manager is a know it all p***k. Anyway, I probley will have to break out the glass to make use of all the availible space. I've never seen a bass tube that would fit back there. It's pretty tight and he still wants a little floor space to put things. Acctually now that I think about it he really wants alot of things.Nik

W1V2 JLs only come in 10", 12" and 13.5". Maybe you meant W3V2? They come in an 8".

Hmmm, I gotta say, I'll be AMAZED if you can fit a standard sub in that vehicle. Especially if it has the newer shortened body style we just recently got at work. This might be a little out there, but why not consider speaker upgrade with a good amp? I know, it won't handle as well as the sub, but for the vehicle, the limited space is ridiculous... The situation I have seen was a guy in a S10(similar sizing) that he was basically snug on the steering wheel... Just an idea...1998 Monte Carlo w/

JL 10" W1V2 is only 4 1/3" deep. Should be no problem getting it into this truck, especially if you fiberglass.
