Take out your spare tire and have the 12" magnet down there, facing up.

Where are you located? If you are near indiana I know a guy who does awesome work. Do you want 1 or 2 12's? If you go with a down firing sub, you are going to lose some sound quality because the magnet will be using more or the trunk for volume of the enclosure, yet the base will still sound good if your "box" isnt too big of volume (.5' to .75' cubic feet depending on how large of sub)

So its whatever man... yeah Casper had his sub inside the car, in the rear passenger seats side panel. i think it was an 8

I had 2 12" woofers inside cabin... 1 on each side in custom fivberglass enclosures...

I say use the floor and loose your spare... build woofers face out.. not in... You may only get 1 but that would be sick...

or

build a box to hang off the deck facing into your cabin... in may block some of the glass work buy amp isnt as big as mine anyway...

Just a suggestion....

good luck!!!


my subs

well facing subs down 2 of them should be fine right??? the space in the trunk is so small after all that fiberglass just like a regular box. I think that would look nice.

Speaking of which...what did you do with them? Still in the car? If so, any chance you might want to sell them?

seems to be the question that all of you want to know.. alot of PMs on this...

They are molded in the car to the car... you want them buy my car for $10k...lol No way to remove them... To install them we cut frame support under the window and layed the fibeglass right in... so now the fiberglass box is part of the fender and supports the car... if you knock on the side of the fender under the window its solid as a rock..lol

once I sell the car I will have 2 sets of panels.. one stock and one with enclosure hole.. up to buyer if they want subs there or not!

and heres the link to pics:
