I need a new rear wiper motor in my '00. Anyone know the difference between the '97-'01 and the older motor? It would be nice if the only difference is the wiring or something I can work with.

After i said that I realized that there are number markings for which tooth gear you have in that tell you how to clock it

If you can, it wouldn't be worth installing. Not much space unless you do metal work. I screwed mine to the back of the bench. My amp was behind the passenger front seat with a false floor over it so passengers and groceries wouldn't damage it.

You'd have to measure, but I'd guess not. I put a Kicker CVT10 in the back of mine, and it sounded good but not great. I'd get a 12" if I get another XJ cause I listen to pretty much every genre.

Like I could maybe make a box and mount it under the front 2 seats.

Front ujoint at the axle. I had the same issue. It may be hitting the flange of the shaft. You can grind some of the flange away for more clearance at high angles

Have you ever looked under the front seats? There is hardly any room at all. Like posted before it'd be pointless. There is a method to doing stereos properly. Each speaker or sub needs a precise amount of space in a box to sound good. There's bass and then there is good bass. Half the idiots with systems in their vehicles have it done wrong.

There are websites to calculate the exact size cubic feet needed per you're speaker specs. Look I to it before wasting time with a improper install. Not trying to bash on your idea just trying to help. Good luck.

OK I'll look into it. I was in a simulator and they had a sub under each one of the seats I'm wanting to recreate something like that
