Default C-6 Convertible Sub Boxes

Does anyone out there make a Sub box for a convertible that retains space? I know about the high priced JL Stealth boxes. What about others? I need to see pictures as well. Rick @ RAAM, hdid you ever build your boxes?

I decided to get the JL stealth boxes and have Rick @ RAAMAudio modify them and use ID Subs. I can't give up any trunk space as I actually like to travel with my wife. (She brings the Kitchen Sink when I can get her to travel) She is totally disabled and she needs a walker if she travels as well thanks to two traffic accidents within 90 days.

Yes they do. The rear speakers are to be removed and the hole is to be covered by sound deadening foam.

It depends on your personal preferences, but many who put top end aftermarket systems in eliminate the rears to make it sound more realistic. My preference is to keep the rears, but with the right setup in the front you wouldn't miss them.

wouldn't it be more senseable to put an aeroport where the holes were
