I'm looking to throw a box in the trunk of my 2000 Convertible, what fits?? The trunk looks a little tight but MAY fit a sealed 10". Anyone have any knowledge of what will fit in the trunk? Thx in advance.

i think u could get a a sealed 12's in there. I am gonna get a custom box with two 12s on on each side (left and right) from the wheel hump back. and the shop said it would fit well with glass and everything

the infinity basslink is clean, small and sounds great. unless you are one of those morons who perfers trunk rattle over sound quality. in that case you could be creative and cram just about anything in there, i know it's small but with the right angles, removing the spare, ect you can get plenty. please, get a good balance in your system don't get beat for the sake of beat I know lots of guys like that.

It's not so much I'm asking what sounds good (although I appreciate the comments), I'm more looking for what will FIT in the trunk. The trunk looks tight!

Re: What subs fits in the trunk???

I have dual 10" Volfenhag Comps, and I had to get a special sealed box to fit them behind the seats. If you want to fit them there then that's the biggest you can go.

Re: What subs fits in the trunk???

The mustang trunk can't be smaller than the little trunk in my camaro. I'm not talking about the hatch part, but rather the trunk (hole) in the back of the camaro. I fitted in TWO 15" Fusion subs with custom boxes. one box for each sub. If i could fit two 15" subs i'm sure you should be able to find a way to fit them too. It does sacrifice a bit of bass though if earth shattering bass is what you're looking for. Plus, i'm not sure but i think loud bass will be very hard to achieve in a convertible coz all the bass is not enclosed and escaped through the soft-top (sorry, don't know how to put it any better than that). If you want a balanced system without needing to tnue the bass all the time to get it perfect i'd go with the 10's. I just like havin 15's coz sometimes i want balance and other times i just feel like car shattering bass. Guess it depends on how much bass you like.

Ight to get costum box u need to go to a shop that works with things like that. custom body shops etc do that. but they are expensive!!! umm about the trunk rattling thing they didnt put it together right. they need to use doyromat(sP) and this will make the system sound awsome one of my friends gots a tahoe with enought power and such to break windows seriously i have seen it do that. and it sounds freakin awsome but it also cost him about 10 gs for everything!! but about the size u could pry fit 15 do this mesause from the bottom to the top and think u need about 2 inchs above and below sub for the box so if its 20 inchs or more u pry could go 15's hope that helps.

you could just make your own box, if you want advise go to caraudio.com they have forums with a bunch of info, there is a guy on there that will build a very good box for cheap.

it should, but i doubt that it provides decent airflow. check around that site though, their boxes are dirt cheap and they have tons of sizes. get a tape measure in your trunk and see how much space you are willing to compramise.

Guyz, make sure that you pick the right box for the right car AND the right sub. Too many people screw this up and wonder why their $2000 system sounds like shit.

Since you guys are talking about real car audio, check out some of the items I have on EBay. Make sure to click "see seller's other auctions" too.
