KW181 - Fit in car?
KW181 - Fit in car? Posted on: 06.02.2013 by Albertina Fay Any KW181 owners out there??I am buying a set of k12's and a KW181 tomorrow. (YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!) However, I am not able to get a hold of someone with a van or pickup and wanted to know if the sub would fit in my car. I own a 2003 Acura TL Type S. I highly doubt it would fit in the car while it's boxed, but I am hoping it fits without the box. (Front Seat, Rear Seat, Trunk??). I don't want to waste a trip because it did not fit in the car. Can anyone help me? | |

I am going to be testing them on Saturday at a park for my cousin's bridal shower/party. It's totally overkill, but it is perfect to test and see how they perform outdoors. You told me you were going to start doing some mobile gigs.... How is that going?

| Takako Pansegrau 26.11.2013 | I'm believeing of getting the same set up (KW-181) and wondering if it will fit in my old Honda Accord Sedan... Please post pics! |
| Klara Kinnebrew 08.02.2013 | Definatly need pics. This is the exact setup im looking to buy here within the next few weeks. let us know how you like everything! |
| Albertina Fay 07.02.2013 | Update: So I finally picked up the speakers. I was able to fit the KW181 in my back seat with no problem. However, I needed take it out of the box. (Box was flattened and fit in the back seat as well. I was able to fit one K12 on the other half of my back seat, with the box. the other went in my trunk, also in the box. I also bought the tote bags as well for the k12's. Now I need to get myself the cover the the KW181. (He didn't have any in stock.) I'm one happy camper!!!!!!!! I'll take some pictures on Saturday when I load them up in my car again. Stay tuned... |

| Julissa Serrone 08.02.2013 | yo....did it fit??? I had thought about investing in a mini sub (EV) to go with my tops, figured that would the only sub that would fit in a 2 door car. If you could get that to fit, that would be impressive man. So are you doing some mobile gigs now? |
| Albertina Fay 07.02.2013 | will do! I am surprised I was not able to find a picture anywhere on the interwebz |
| Wilma Quinty 07.02.2013 | Post pictures if you do manage to fit it in your car! |

| Harley Zitka 06.02.2013 | Find the measurements of the sub, then get a box the same size (or just a measuring tape) to see if it will fit. Most likely, your best bet will be the front seat. I have an EV Live X 18" sub, and it just BARELY fits in the front seat of my Honda Civic Coupe... but it fits. |
