Off the Shelf 12" Sub enclosure that fits boot floor







Got the enclosure for $19.99 a few weeks ago from Fry's. Typically sells for $90, so I got a great deal. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-t8yE7qM...x?I=044T1012SS

The QLT-1.0012SS truck style box accommodates one 12" subwoofer in a sturdy medium-density fiberboard housing, upholstered with durable gray carpet. The sealed box design is compact, and contributes to deep, tight bass.
Since basket design and bolt patterns vary with each subwoofer brand, Q-Logic's ingenious QXs seal rings allow you to customize the baffle openings for almost any woofers available. The box has nickel-plated, spring-post speaker terminals, and comes with speaker wire, Polyfill, and a screw pack.
This box is designed to fit behind the front seats of many regular cab pickup trucks. Please measure the planned installation location to ensure fit.
Details:
  • Type 1 truck style enclosure for one 12" subwoofer
  • 5/8" medium density fiberboard construction with gray carpet covering
  • nickel-plated, spring-post speaker terminals
  • QXs mounting ring
  • internal volume: 1.00 cubic feet
  • dimensions: 29-7/16"W x 14-3/8"H x 8-13/16"D1 x 5-1/2"D2
  • warranty: 1 year
I'm sticking with the stock head unit and putting the amp (RFPunch100a2) under the passenger seat. Ideally, I need a 1.25 cu ft box for this sub, but I added some extra polyfill, so that should help. I'll also be adding a sturdy speaker grill for protection...

Well, I ended up mounting the amp to the seatback instead of the more complicated under passenger seat location. Sounds good, and I can still put stuff in the hatch.
