Citi golf Xcite Sub Enclosure

Post by TemoMK1 »

Hi,

If im not mistaken the Citi Xcite came out with a subwoofer that was mounted to the left/right rear in the boot.
A stealth/hidden type enclosure.

Does anyone know where you could possibly get something like that?
Or do you guys have any good fibreglass builders in CPT who could build me one.

Basically any advice or ideas how to hide a small sub in a citi as I infrequently use my boot.

Thanks!

Try VW. They may have a few in stock still. One dealership had a special with sub, amp wiring for a grand I think. Still regret not buying it.

Ahh ok, that looks quite nice. How do they sound? Was probably an 8 inch?

Lols... Go to sound shops in your area and ask them you never know if anyone may have had a bigger system fitted and didn't take the box back...

As per the thread, you will have to try VWSA and chances are slim of getting one. Alternatively, any reputable sound installation shop, should be able to build you something similar.

Or do it yourself. Its not difficult to build a fibreglass sub enclosure in the space. Many YouTube tutorials to follow on that. The problem comes with tuning after but im sure a sound guy can help with that
