I am looking to see what can be done to the two smaller cargo compartment on the back of the coupe as far as subs are concerned.

Has anyone placed subs in there and if so how and what did you use?

Cannot use the center compartment due to methanol installation.

8s in a fiberglass compartment would work. You would need 8s with small airspace requirement... ARC 8s come to mind.

I recently had favorable (and surprising) results using a pair of eD 9Kv.2 drivers in 0.3 ft^3 apiece. Better than some tens as a matter of fact.

Actually designed to work with the 9Kv.2, wich is just over 8 inches. I dont htink a 10 would fit. I have a set on the way, Ill let you know how they look/sound.

I love mine. They hit better and lower than my idq dual 10's did.

Only current downside is that they don't fit the coupes The latch mechanism is in the way But they fit the verts and z's perfectly. Here are some pics though

There was enough airspace for those beefy JLw7s
