Default Anyone cut into backdeck for more bass

I have a bandpass box with two tens.
I have been thinking about cutting backdeck because in my older car (Honda accord) it sounded a little better if I dropped the back seats.
Any ideas

I wouldnt do that if I were you.. Your going to loose the structural stentgh of your car by cutting the backdeck.. Why not just fold down the seats if you want more base,,

Default I had a dual bandpass enclosure, two 10"s, in my

Volvo (pre-TT) that I ported through the back deck. It was great b/c all of the sound entered directly into the cabin.

I'm a stereo newbie, but some people in this group have suggested the following instead of cutting into the deck:

1. Remove the rear deck speakers so that the bass can travel through the speaker holes.

2. If you car has a ski-sack (and you don't use it for skis), then you could cut out the sack to leave a large hole. Then you only have to lower the rear arm-rest instead of the whole rear seat.

Default i just keep the drivers side folded down

it's a curse of having an insulated interior. technically trunk sounds should stay in the trunk
