Re: Subwoofer Hell!!!
You can buy an amplified version of the Bazooka tubes and a non-amplified version. Here's a link to the non:

What amp are you using?
The downside to the Bazooka's is that the subwoofer is complete junk and can't handle barely any power. But.. the enclosure is golden. It sucks to have to pay so much money for just a plastic tube, but it's what works and when you look at the option of trying to build a weather proof, round, perfectly ported enclosure.. you'll end up spending as much if not more money along with hours and hours of time.
So.. get the tubes.. and right away go ahead and unscrew the sub and toss it... sell it on ebay.. whatever. Get yourself a few SS screws and mount that Kicker sub in it's place. Use some foam tape around the rim to seal it. It should fit perfect or just slightly off.. but the foam tape will seal the sub in even if one or two screws don't totally line up. Put the tubes under your dash facing outwards.. and use the enclosed mounting straps to secure the tubes. Hook your amp right up to them like you have your other subs. I dropped in a pair of huge 12" Pioneer 3500w competition subs into my 12" tubes and seriously.. it's deafening. The bass out of these is unreal.
What series of Kickers do you have? I'm hoping that it's not the square ones. Also, if you're not using a gigantic amp to power them (something around 200w RMS per channel), then you can use the stock woofers. I can never do anything half way.. that's my problem. I'm running 900w RMS to each one..
