Alot of things will fit in your trunk...If you build it inside of it. Getting it in is generally the battle. Otherwise have a shop build one for you if you dont feel comfortable doing it yourself. It will cost almost the exact same to have a shop build one for you ($150). Everything looks good man, your going with the black cone version right!? It looks awesome in black _____________________________ (in reply to laserred38) Post #: 4

I'm pretty sure I'm just going to get a sealed box. I'm not going to worry about the scosche box.. I mean ya it looks nice tucked away in the side.. but i'm not going for the stealth look. other than that I just want to keep it simple for now its my first setup (in reply to laserred38) Post #: 6

I'll probably stick with that unless the people I go to for installation (ya I can't do it myself) can come up with some better. maybe they can I don't know. and no I didn't want to go all black with the subs.. haha I went with the silver. black might have looked pretty but i didn't want to take the risk.. haha. maybe there is no risk. either way I'm hoping this will sound good when its all good this is what I went with Alpine IDA-X001 HU eD 13Ov.2 sub NINe.2x amp Sealed Enclosure for 130v.2 from Elemental design. I think it should be pretty good.. lemme know and I'll let yall know when it gets installed and stuff (in reply to laserred38) Post #: 8

All of it arrived this morning (it didn't ship till 6p.m. last night) I was surprise big time. And I ordered the wrong box during the day and their customer service (eD) is just amazing. So i'm waiting for the box and then its installion time... I'll let you all know what it ends up looking/sounding like. (in reply to PReal) Post #: 11
