I wish I could have kept the blazer but don't worry I will be building another at some point. Until then everyone is just going to have to put up with me posting about my Jetta around here lol!

Yeah I like the look so much better now. And I am happy with my my purchase. The wires and LOC will be here tomorrow so maybe I can find some time this weekend to get it installed. I also picked up two 12's and an amp from a coworker to install in my sons blazer today so that will need to be installed as well.

I used to run 2 12s back in the day but it got to be too much for me. I am happy now with just one 10"

I have learned that running Tiguan springs will net about 2" of lift!!!

I drove my wifes mustang tonight and it was like driving a big lumbering monster struck compared to the Jetta lol! I will have a few actual updates coming soon

I am happy that I now have an easy way to transport my bike around and VERY happy with the $50 I spent on it all and even more so after I came inside and priced everything out that I got today.

Oh and I also got my sub installed and it is perfect for what I was looking for. I still need to do some tuning with the amp but for now I am very happy! I'll take pics of that when I clean out my trunk lol!
