How do you port subs through the first aid kit in a 1994 e320?
i have 2 12" kicker L5's in my 1994 e320 and i heard that you can cut through where the first aid kit is in the back to get more sound in the car from the subs. does anyone know how to do this?

1. Why are you doing such crap to a fine automobile? Next you are going to ask us how to put 20" 's on it.
2. I wouldn't do it through the first aid kit. Take out the back seat, then the rear parcel shelf (which holds the first aid kit) and you'll notice that the chassis has many holes of which to port a tube. Choose the appropriate one and cut into the parcel shelf. You may want to dampen the shelf with acoustic treatment like Dynamat before finishing. Also, take out the first aid kit and dampen the enclosure. Otherwise it will rattle and buzz- drives me crazy when people take short cuts on acoustic treatment.
Also, don't listen to the bozo that said why would you do such a thing to a fine auto. They obviously believe that the junky Becker system with a cassette tape is a GREAT system. Couldn't be further from the truth. Those systems are junk and MB should be embarrassed by such trash in their cars.
Hope this info helps. Good luck on your project!
3. CHECK OUT THIS BOX CALCULATOR. ITS AMAZING. just make a box tuned to its freq. that way its as loud as the sub can possibly be.. I just made one for an audiobahn aw1000.. which are not that nice but it turned out to be louder afterwards then 2 rockford p3's in a sealed box... NO JOKE. email me if questions
