MTS THunderform

[Curtis66]

Hello, I'm new to this site. Just got a 2001 lightning and I'm looking to upgrade the sound system. I have 3 8" kicker subs from my old truck and I found some wedge boxes for $30 each. I already have a kicker ZX750.1 amp so I could get bass going for $60.

I fount the MTX thunderform custom box that holds 2 10's, so for a few hundred I can install a custom setup... What I'm wondering is if I would loose any leg room with the MTX setup? I am 6'1" and like the seat all the way back when I drive. Does anyone have the MTX setup? How do you like it, and how much leg room do you loose with it installed. Any guidance would be greatly Appreciated.

I have the MTX setup in my 2000 L. I have zero issues with leg room and I'm 5'11''. The seat still has plenty of room to go back. I think it might even go all the way back with the MTX box back there. I can double check when I get home.

Awesome! If it goes all the way back I'm in. Would greatly appreciate you checking. How do you like it? What subs are you using ?

I will check for you when I get home. As far as the subs I believe they are just the standard 10" that came in the box. The gentleman that had the truck before had it installed with a new Kenwood deck, replaced all the standard speakers with Kenwoods with 2 amps, 1 running the subs and the other running the regular speakers. I think it sounds great though. Nothing that shakes the crap out of you but good clean sound with good deep bass.

Very cool, and a little back massage for the icing on the cake !!!

Sorry for the delay but yes my seat does go all the way back and still has a decent amount of recline. I think they designed this box perfect for this truck as far as fit and usability of the seat.
