ZJ soundbar - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I am going to start by saying that I know this is not hardcore at all PERIOD But it is something that people may want to do to their ZJ for when they pull the doors. I have found that the 98 5.9's came with a sound bar that is mounted where the light is in when you open the rear hatch. From what I have read you only need the bar itself, wiring harness and 5.9 amp(more power and outputs). You can also try and find somewhere to relocate your speakers to, but I have yet to find anyplace that will work(even getting smaller speakers). Or you can keep your stock amp and move the wiring around so your front speakers are in your rear doors and the rear speakers are in the soundbar. I am trying to figure out what the best solution is to this as I really want to pull my doors this summer and ride through the city I live in, Downtown Baltimore Maryland, bumpin country music. Thanks for all recommendations.

Sorry I wrote that post during the end of my Calc 3 lecture today, maybe not recommendations but ideas with pros and cons of doing them. The only problem with doing the sound bar is cost. It will cost around 150+ to get the stuff needed from the junkyard. So I guess What Have people done with their speakers when they pull their doors? Do you just put up with the lack of music or did you move them somewhere else inside the jeep?
