Default Another Car-Specific Question (I Know You All Hate These)...

[Heavy Sigh]
God damn it.

There are no prefab holes in the rear deck metal (Thank you, RG. It's
not that I didn't believe you, it's that I had to see for myself). It
wouldve sounded so GOOD, too. Ah, well - **** it. I guess we'll find
out how it sounds when your two-ways are down by where someone's feet
would go if they were sitting in the back seat. If it's sufficiently
bad, I may have to get some components (there are tweeter mounting
locations [that already have blown tweets mounted] up by the rear door
handles)...

I'm almost done building the box!! This is gonna be one pretty piece
of Audio Art. Wish me luck everyone!! (Pics will be posted and
whatnot by Wednesday! I'll post to let everyone know where/when!)

The 96 passat GLX (I had one) came with one of five different
alternators. You had to look at the vin code to figure out which one
you had. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the jettas had the factory
holes and some didn't, even in the same make, model, and year. It may
even have something in between. Maybe they used to same die to stamp
the rear deck for cars with and without the speaker holes, and then cut
the final holes for only the cars that needed them.

...you know I'm still going to look, don't you? I won't be able to
help myself - plus I've got a couple of websites telling me that there
are prefab holes. Personally, I hope you're wrong.

I'll find out tonight. Here's hopin'!
