sub or spare wheel??, looking for ideas on sub location Options

[danny_t82]

Hi guys, first post for me

I have a 12" infinity sub which I have built an mdf box for and sits in half the boot slightly above the spare wheel (will get pictures on here soon!. Sounds great and was fun to build as well as a great learning experience, however I'm a bit of a perfectionist and am considering redoing the job to get a snugger fit in the boot and accommodate a power cap.

Have to say that the shape of the boot is a real b***h to try and fit a sub box hence I ditched the original. I'm looking for inspiration and ideas on ways round this problem and am sure you guys are the ones to ask!

I'm considering removing the spare wheel as a last resort and would like to ditch the shelf without making my toys obvious to thieves cos it rattles like hell.

Would love to hear your ideas and to see some pics of how you guys got around it...

Cheers....

Hi Scarrell,

I like what you've done there, if you can fit a 15" sub in the space of the parecel shelf then I should have no trouble gettin my 12 in there. Did u keep the spare in its well?

What do you recon about adding another layer of mdf to the top so that the sub is 'sunken' slightly allowing it to be coved with the cloth and keeping it outa sight, would this degrade the sound?. Also, is it necessary to have the port on the same face as the sub cos i dont wanna cover that and restrict its flow.

Cheers,
