I looked at that, and while the 370z is listed, I'm not sure it will fit. They have our car as 23mm, but after measuring and dividing, it appears slightly larger. I may just suck at measuring.

Either way, I like it better on the windshield It allows for fast and clean disconnect in case I get pulled over or park in a "shady" area. Perhaps the mirror mount would provide the same advantage, not sure.

Also, how does the sub sound in the Z? I've always thought that even a nice sub in a Z would sound shitty. :/
Sounds amazing, honestly. I've ran systems from dual 15" subs in a hatchback to competition 10" subs in a trunk, and this sounds great. You won't win any competitions with MY setup, of course, but it sounds good.

I'd think really hard before putting dual 12"s in the back. A single 12" or 10", or dual 10"s will probably all sound great. Dual 12", unless properly noise-deadened/dynomatted, I think it may sound like crap. Just my

FWIW I got the 23mm mount from them for my Escort and it works great.

Nice system, bet it sounds great!

And if anyone is wondering, in the first pic you can see a little metal toggle switch. That's my DVD bypass. They said they couldn't just bypass with the wires, so they installed that. I put a DVD in, flip the switch on, start the DVD, and flip the switch back.
