So i have decided to remove my box in my trunk and to mount the subs into a wall in my trunk. I say trunk because i have coupe. So i understand how to make the wall and mount it to my car the fiberglass it too the sides of my trunk to keep it in place and looking good with out rattling around. Now if i make this wall the only thing that would act as the back(like the back wall in a box) would be my back seat.
So if i mount my subs into a wall in my trunk can i use my seats as the back of the "box"? or will i need to make a back pannel? I say "box" beacause i will be using my car's body to make up the top bottom and sides of the box... if it is unclear what i mean please let me know and i will try to explain better... -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2

You're basically making a baffle board setup and using the subs in a free air type of design. It'll work, just make sure the subs are rated for free air use. What I'd do is mount the "wall" at the front of the trunk just behind the seats with the subs facing forward. This turns the entire trunk into the box per se', and gives you a very slight chambered effect with the free space between the front of the wall and the seat backs.

Well i want to have the wall towards the back of the trunk with the subs facing the rear bumper... That way i'd mack the space right behind the seats and under the deck lid into the "box"... thanks for your input, but i dont want to have my subs facing the front of the car right behind my seats... i'd never get to show them off:) -------------------- 1 JL 1,000/1v2
