2022+ Hyundai Elantra N Installing Sound Deadening & Replacing Bose w/ 8” Kicker Comp R Subwoofer

In this video, I show how to install closed cell foam sound deadening material in the rear deck area of a 2022+ Hyundai Elantra N. I also show how to remove the factory 8" Bose subwoofer and replace it with an aftermarket 8" subwoofer. A speaker adapter is not made for replacing the factory sub, so I go through the steps of making your own custom speaker adapter. At the end of the video, I give my impressions of adding the sound deadening and upgrading the subwoofer.

This video tries to answer the following questions.
1. How do you remove the factory 8" Bose subwoofer from a Hyundai Elantra N?
2. How to install an 8" aftermarket subwoofer in a Hyundai Elantra N?
3. Does closed cell foam sound deadening make a difference in sound?
4. Do you need closed cell foam sound deadening in your car?
5. What does closed cell foam sound deadening do for your audio system?
6. Is closed cell foam sound deadening worth the money?
7. Is it worth replacing the 8" Bose subwoofer in the Elantra N?
8. What to expect when upgrading the Hyundai Elantra N subwoofer?
9. Do you need an aftermarket amplifier when replacing the 8" Bose subwoofer with an aftermarket subwoofer?
10. How much does the factory Bose 8" subwoofer weigh?
11. What are the specification of the factory Bose subwoofer in the Elantra N?
