Ok..we all know about changing the front or sail panel speakers ( depends on what year Fiero), add on amps, subwoofers, door panels etc. If they can make a sound bar for the latest TV's, why can't we have a slim width, slim height and 36 inch length soundbar for a car?? All auto have a space between the rear window and seats. Any of you guys have any ideas as how to make one or does someone make a 12 volt soundbar for a car ??

Try an RV equipment supplier. The TV & other electronics in those are usually 12vdc / 120vac in the US and Canada. Sound quality is pretty poor with the built-in speakers but they do make soundbars for them. (At least here in Oz you can get them.)

Only problem there is that your "sound stage" is behind you.

How many people watch a live band with their back to the stage?

Just hang the sound bar from the front of the headliner like the 80's WINK mirrors.

Heres one from Avengador1's car:

In 99% of cars, you adjust basic to most expensive "radios" so "sounds right" for the driver, everyone else is crap sound or worse "Screaming in One ear" even at lower volume for the Driver.

This is part of what 84 Fiero seat speakers was trying to fight. Give both seats some more left/right channels normally won't have.

Nearly all others adding big sound systems to any vehicle just want a "boom car" but claiming all kinds of BS to justify the cost.
