Yes! Someone else who fires subs into the cabin. Let me know how it works out for you; I want to do something similar with a single 12 through the 4th gen. ski pass-through.

u'll need to build a largh face to the sub. so the sub is in th emiddle or wherever you want. and the face covers the whole "cave" thing.. so you seal off the air from the trunk and the cabin. if you dont' wanna use dynamat to seal it off. use duct tape. that's what i used, same effect but a huge cost difference.

I've got mine in the rear deck. Or at least I should next month sometime. I buit an MDF/glass&kevlar sealed box which mounts perfectly to the underside of where the rear deck used to be. After I built that box and learned MTX wasn't goig to ship the amps in APril as previously promised I decided to make it completly from composites to save a little more trunk volume. 3 Diamond 12" macdaddy's powered by the MTX 1000D if they ever decide to ship the amp.
This is why I need to mount a gas strut to open the trunk. Sorry I don't have a digital cam. Spent all my money on the stereo, a wedding and a honeymoon this year.
Botos, it should be pretty easy to build your enclosure. Email me if you are anywhere near the east coast.

Kevlar?! That must've cost you an arm and a leg! So the whole rear deck got hacked out- that must be a sight.

My last sub box was MDF mated to a glassed tub that wrapped around the spare tire, but there isn't enough leftover volume in the Max's tire well to make it worth the effort. I was going to stick with a (comparatively) simple MDF box that just matched the slope of the back seats.

I actually am on the east coast, near Philly, so I'll have to see your setup some time. You going to E-town next weekend?
