Do people bridge the lowers? Why? What advantage? Would I then need 8 ohm instead of 4 ohm for the lower speaks?

Do I need spacers? If so, I won't be able to add speaks as I have a Heavy Breather AC and it's 0.5" from the current door on my lowers.
With the heavy breather AC you will not be able to run lower speaker pods. The only way would be to shorten the intake pipe and run a shorter AC filament

That’s good to know thanks. Is that with a grille? What if I run without a grille?

I ran lower pods with that breather. Have to have a flat grill that doesnt stick out at all, and it still did touch the grill a bit.

Just like these, but not the same ones I bought. Same style.

Edit: to be clear I have advan black lowers. OEM pods might stick out further than advan blacks.
