Sorry if I sound stupid, but how do you do the laser part, because all I know is to tape a mirror to my sub-woofer. and can i put it in my van?

i wouldnt recommend putting "music modified lighting equipment" in your vehicle. Here in the states (upstate NY) it could get you a 90 - 130 $ ticket per bass light (trust me i know)

What?? You mean if you have lights on your subs you get tickets even if they are in your trunk and not visable?

I think the lights he is refering to must be mounted in the actual car and visable from the outside? Because otherwise if you have shiny silver subs like mine, then even the stock trunk light will reflect of it and then could be classed as "music modified lighting equipment" lol

correct, i had some bass lights in my rear window and it was $90 per light i had 3 in the back window and 2 under the car

Oh please...people with no imagination.......you could try to combine 2 mirrors ar if you dont wanth to brake a mirror please use a mini CD or DVD trust me is much more resistent (and it let's more air pass) alsow combine 2-3 difrent color laser's positioned in a triangule or watherever position you wanth. if someone is gona try this thing please feedback : hackallnight.webs.com

no offense , but this is a pretty dumb idea , 1 , ma sub is in a custom box ect and is tuned to about 50 to 140 hz , dumb idea to tape a mirror to the port , it already shakes windows and doors ect througout my house , what do u think it will do to the mirror and number 2 blocking the port alters the sound of the speaker , most subs are designed to be either ported or non ported .

Well if it shakes windows then just point a laser at the windows. It should do about the same thing as this just not directly on the subwoofer.

I like the show but I hate my music rattling caused by the mirror. any ways to stop it?
Oct 12, 2008. 3:21 PMthatguysbow says:
i would get some foam or somthing to put around the edges of the mirror or air hole
Oct 2, 2008. 6:25 PMteam_nes_1986 says:
I would try taping the mirror to the actual subwoofer instead of putting it over the hole.

The 'light show' seems pretty boring from the video. It Basically did the same pattern over and over again.
Dec 17, 2007. 3:06 PMGorillazMiko says:
nice. thanks for giving the link for the laser.
