[Shotimes] JBL subwoofer

[Steve Tatro]

Are you working on a Gen2?

My '93 has the 4 studs (with 4 square "washers") attached to the steel
shelf.  The plastic sub box has 4 holes in it, with recesses to match
the 4 square washers.  All held together with 4 nuts.  Lines up pretty
nicely and holds pretty firm.  No rubber isolators of any sort.

No idea about the foam.  I can't imagine it needing to be replaced?

Good luck,

With advice from Gil Shoemaker and parts from Al Fitz, I am retrofitting
JBL into a car that came without.  A question about mounting the
subwoofer to the parcel shelf:  The sub housing has four studs on top
that fit holes in the steel.  Surely there must be some sort of rubber
washer or other vibration isolator at these four mount points.  What was
used at the factory?  Anyone who has parted out a JBL, what should I
use?

Also:  I have read about people getting fresh foam around the subwoofer.
What's that all about?

Thanks.
