I am considering getting a custom made fiberglass enclosure for behind the passenger seat. I talked with my shop and they said it's be like $400-500, but then I could fit a jl w1 12 with minimal leg rooms loss.

Just make sure the sub can "breathe" or else your gonna get some crappy sound. I have yet to see a good sounding install in a boxster with subs behind the seats and ive been looking at systems for A WHILE.

I know, they get so many cubic feet of packing peanuts and fill the enclosure to make sure its the right size. With fiberglass you can make every nook and cranny part of the box so it should work. When I sell my system I might use the money for that.

Wow, I would sure love to listen to your system when I get a chance to visit Cali. I checked out Eslai pics on the finish and they were awesome.

Could you explain more about fitting 10 inch sub in the spare tire area? How loud/strong is the punch of the bass from the front trunk?
