Sub Enclosure with Navigation System?

I have a 2000 TL w/ Navi

I want to put a prefab sealed enclosure in for two tens. they need .85 cf....

Do people generally unbolt and move the Navi in the trunk to drop a prefab sealed sub box in thier cars?

Where will I put the navi reader? are the wires long enough to put it somewhere else?

Will the bass mess my navi up?

If someone knows of a perfect prefab box for two 10's around .85 cf... that fits with my navi up there under the deck... plz link me to it.

No one moves the nav except for custom installs. The wires are not long enough to move it, they need to be extended, Ron from streeteffectz ha posted re this.

The bass from two 10"s off of a KW amp are unlikely to mess up your navi... we've had HOW many bass installs on this forum? It takes a lot of bass to FU your nav.

Cool Found A Prefab Box To Fit

I went to circuit city and dropped their sealed box in for two 10's. It fits under the navi and in that little part in the back of the trunk perfectly.

it's a q-logic box and is .75 cf for each sub.

I called MTX and he said that .75 was the minimum... He said that .85 would be better...

How much difference would I expect if I kept looking for a .85 cf per sub enclosure?

Or should I just buy this $60 prefab box and be done with it... ?

I just built my own box.. Very simple to do.. It pounds pretty hard and I've never had a interruption from the bass.. But the box does not touch the Navi at all..

I just tapped into the stock amp in the rear so I could still have my factory 6 disc and steering wheel controls..

And no it doesn't heat up at all..

It's just on the front of the box, no reason for it to heat up...

Question Couple Questions

MTX told me that for my subs that .75 was the minimum cubic feet. This one is .75.. should I go with it or find something in like .85? Seriously is there going to be that big of a diff?

Should I put polyfill in this box... if so, how much... Or do yall think this is a l<rappy Box all together?

If so, should I just buy something to make sure it's sealed or reseal it?
