I have to tell you, you will not be able to hear the subwoofer in any trunk...

Actually, let me correct that. You may be able to hear them rattle and a some one deep note coming from somewhere outside the car, with the top down. However, the FEEL that comes with bass, that everyone wants, will just not be there.

Sound waves are just the movement of air. Bass especially. Thats the "kick" that you get from subwoofers... It's just pushing the air. Now, if you push air that is in a completely different, sealed portion of your car, you're not going to be able to feel it like you expect.

Feel free to try, however you're honestly better off buying a GREAT amp, and GREAT 8" door speakers and getting plenty of bass that way.

Oh well, just my two cents.

Good luck and Happy Boxstering!!
