  • Hint: Use a descriptive title for your new message
    If you're looking for help and want to draw people in who can assist you, use a descriptive subject title when posting your message. In other words, "I need help with my car" could be about anything and can easily be overlooked by people who can help. However, "I need help with my transmission" will draw interest from people who can help with a transmission specific issue. Be as descriptive as you can. Please also post in the appropriate forum. The "Lounge" is for introducing yourself. If you need help with your G70, please post in the G70 section - and so on... This message can be closed by clicking the X in the top right corner.

So I have the 14 speaker system...In all honesty it's the best sounding stock system I have ever owned. I can live with most everything, except the bass.

The subwoofer is obviously free air into the trunk and just runs out of thump. Ok, easy enough, add one. But I don't really want to make a box and lose the depth of the trunk or lose my pass thru door. So then I get thinking about the spare tire well...that thing is H.U.G.E.

But then I am thinking the sub needs a hole in the deck/mat/"cargo tray" thingy, so I don't like that. And then I notice the area behind the wheel well and start looking at a fiberglass enclosure.

I have never done one and at first glance it's exciting and dangerous. God knows I don't want to get resin on anything, the time it would take to build it...etc.

Anyone have experience with these? Easy? Hard? How much room do you think there is that corner??? I have a 10" sub, 500 watt amp and a LCQ-1 sitting around...
