volksnuts’ Lariat Maverick build

[MavDave]

Just got home from my trusted local car audio shop (known them 30+ years!)
Confirmed 12’s will fit under the rear seat
Going with 2 Kicker 41L7124’s each in an approx 1 cu ft box
Going to have to up my amp power as my JL Audio amp isn’t going to have enough power to run these…. Lol
They are suggesting Rockford Fosgate T2500-1bd (2500 watts!)
Not sure I’ve got space for that amp so we will revisit once I get the box done

As far as signal I forget the brand but they have an adapter to output rcas before the amp so I can run whatever configuration I want which will include basically not using the B&O amp at all

Very tempted to use this art series amp for the front stage

I was doing some poking around the interwebs and found this. I was thinking of using one when I eventually get to upgrading my audio.

Talk about a tight fit
Kinda forgot about the bottom of the seat bottom
Will have to do some clearancing to keep the cone from potentially hitting the seat
Removed a few things to make working on it a bit easier

Going to my friends place tomorrow to make some decisions about how to make this all work

There are too many Maverick parts sitting my garage
I can’t even use my bench
Some would say maybe work on one project at a time
Current projects up in the air
Suspension…..
Fender vents…..
Fog lights…..
Audio system……
Plus a bunch of random Bronco Sport parts also clogging my garage
Not to mention the Skyline tail lights that need attention (second set on bench)
Jeep Liberty suspension parts also sitting there

I probably should take a week of vacation to get caught up

Gonna need a ride to the meetup Saturday?

I typically take my vacation time to work . Who needs R&R

So how hard is taking the rear seat out?

Oh and that Art Series amp is sexy!

You have to pop off the side plastics to get to the bolts
It comes out super easy in one piece
2 15mm nuts on each side

It still drives!
Just louder than before
I’ll prob throw some blankets or something back there until I get around to putting it back together

Looking forward to the audio setup!

My sister picked up her 23 Bronco Sport Badlands yesterday (in the maybe second best color behind hot pepper)
And I’m now super jealous that hers has seat memory and auto dimming rear view mirror
I’m sure memory seats is not something I could manage to retro fit (or willing since I’m the only one driving my truck) but I have to guess the auto dimming rear view mirror is possible
Will probably have to wait until my wife gets hers (in Hot Pepper!) so that’s fine…. Maybe I’ll get some other projects knocked out by then (hers is scheduled to be built next week I think)

Eruption green..... would have been the PERFECT color to add to the maverick line up for 23, but Noooooooooo. And I would have totally ordered it!

Another piece to a future project

Part # please. I’m a stickler for Factory installs.

I’m glad they didn’t because I’m in too deep on this one to switch over to green

Idk, found on eBay for like $75
Searched 21+ F-150
Just look at the pics to make sure it’s the right configuration switch

I bet those Bronco Sport seats will bolt right in the Maverick!

Shhh... she'll never know!
