I'll take a look and give you more input and feedback when I get home since I can't see that at work. SQ is great but I personally don't think you're going to get your money'* worth spending $125+ for a sub and box that won't have much sound coming out of it. For a while I used a 300W 10" sub in the Regal and it was pretty loud for what it was, but that'* in a coupe. From what I hear, its even quieter in a vert due to the way sound travels.

Now, I know exactly what you mean in regard to trunk space. That 15" sub of mine in the trunk makes it near impossible to use the trunk for anything, but if you want decent sound, you'll need a decent sub.

Don't just take my opinion though, as I'm sure there are people out there with more experience than I have.

Be careful. That might only accept shallow mount subs.

okay question i did some mesuring for a 12and i think i can make it work but the sub specifies 1cubic ft sealed box i can only get a .67 cubic foot 7x14x16 box where i want it.

here is my question does a sub box have to be square or rectangular.
can it be like this

this way can utilize the corner and get 1cubic ft
