Custom stereo '16 Elantra GT Options

[Chris Drenner]

My good friend has been doing a custom stereo install in my GT, and I wanted to share a little bit of the progress with you.

The dash locations with have Morel Hybrid Integra 5.25" point source drivers and will be powered by (1) JL Audio HD600/4 at 4x150w per channel.

The kick panel locations will have Image Dynamics X-69 6x9" mid-bass drivers and will be powered by (1) JL Audio HD600/4 bridged to 2x300w per channel.

The hatch will have (4) Alpine Type S 10" woofers, each pair will be powered by (1) JL Audio HD750/1 at 1x750w per pair.

The system will be controlled by an Alpine PXA-H800/RUX-C800 combo, the C800 controller will be mounted where the overhead sunglass holder was.

The amp rack will hinge up so I can access the spare tire.

Well, upon viewing your installation, my first response would be, "to each his own". If I was into music listening of this magnitude, I think I'd rather set it up in my home instead of my every day vehicle. (I also own a 2016 GT). To me, installing sub woofers in the rear of a hatchback vehicle defeats the purpose of the vehicle: to be able to carry large objects.
Anyway, good luck on your installation.

I have a large home audio set up as well but I enjoy driving and listening to music.
The hatch floor will only be raised up a 6 inches, so I will still be able to use the hatch to carry average sized objects such as luggage and groceries.
