I had KBDD on my 94 formula and on my 02 WS6. I love them. Whe I took my 94 formula to road school it felt great. Also the subs cut down on rattles.

I've heard some bad things about the bolt ons... after a while, the forces on the bolt points tend to open the holes up a bit. Best case scenario there is that they loosen up to the point where they don't work as well. The worst case is that you snap a bolt or two. I had something similar happen in my '74 Camaro with the bolts that hold the steering box onto the frame. It was ugly.

I agree with this. I don't recommend bolt ons to any of our customers. That's why why only sell the weld ins. A lot of people have had successs with bolt ons..however, to me, after a while they can pose problems.
