Standard sub space

Chris mine looks like your bottom picture still from yesterday.lol.

 

Fiddy that could well be a massive help dude,ill see if the audio shop have tinterweb there so i can show him

The gove box door has 2 locating pins that act as a hinge, so looking at the profile of the sub hole this may well fit. I might have a look at this today.

Well i think im going to have a crack at making that box the fiddy kindly put up there.If it doesnt work then ill get someone else to have a go.lol.

will the vertically aimed box not cause all sorts of rattling trapped sound wave issues ? guess only real way to see how well it works is make it though .

from what i can see id say your best option for full stealth install would be a fibreglass botom for an mdf box int he stock space either bolted or surcurely stuck down behind oem covers .

If I were going to do it I'd be using nothing more than a good 8" sub to get the proper volume. A JL 8W7 would kick 95% of other 10" subs into next week.

+1 totally agree with you Rob

You cant really just stick a sub in there though can you? theres nothing blocking all that off from the otherside & its full of holes everywhere.Surely a 10'' matched to a custom box would be better?

[sunset350z]

Thats what he's saying. By going with an 8" sub you've got more room to play around with. An 8" will work more efficiently behind the seat than any 10", and will give much more tighter bass.

Exactly, you can't just plop it in there. You have to build it up and all the time taking up more space that a 10" sub needs as air to push for sound. So I'd go decent 8" that can both be built properly AND have the right volume.

I dunno,i think im still going to have a go at the box on here & possibly put a 10'' Rainbow amboss in it

Not all 8s need less space. E.g. the dd 9512s need about 3cuft where as an old round solobarik only needs about 0.3cuft. So its depends on what sub it is. Its not just the smaller the sub the less space.

Very true. But as a general rule it is the case, and the sub itself takes up less room which can be critical in tight spaces
