[Shotimes] JBL subwoofer

[Carl Prochilo]

Joe,  I recently replaced the sub in my 92 because the original had failed.
Don D. located a deceased 95 parts car that had a good sub.  The sound
opening on box has foam around it.  I'm not 100% sure of this, but I seem to
recall that the mount points on the sub had rubber grommets to allow for
vibration.

The point of all this is if you have the factory sub, the installation is
very simple.  Four screws and the connector to the amp.
