Build 2 seperate boxes so that there is one on Either side.

Excuse me, that's the "Hockey Stick Hole" :D

Two individual boxes would be kind of tacky, visually, but if I ran two subs, that might be the way I'd do it.

Other than that all I could think of is rear trunk placement, which would take up quite a bit of usuable trunk space.

Block the hole. I highly doubt you use it that often, and if you do, then... I don't know. Buy a ski rack or something.

You could just make a wide box with a tunnel in the middle

If done right, it could be made to look quite nice I think....

heh...you'd have to be careful as to not disturb the airspace of the enclosure, but it could be done...then add a custom-made ski rack in the tunnel, loaded with foam on all sides to prevent vibrations but tight enough for the skis to clip in, and voila :)

Exactly, You could even for simplicity sake make two boxes then connect them

Sorry, but are those really twelves? They look like small ten's or big eight's. I personally agree with a custom pair of boxes built to either side of the ski hole.

They are small 12"s, I didn't like the look of the big 12"s.:laugh:

That's very true. Looking in my trunk I don't even see enough mounting depth for a twelve without loosing the spare. Unless they were placed at an angle at the rear of the trunk. But I use my trunk too often to mount a sub where it would constantly be scraped across.
