Default Trunk Well Air Space

Hey All.

Does anyone know how much airspace is available in the rear well of the trunk? I am looking into doing a custom sealed enclosure for a JL 10w7.

Thanks in advanced.
Paul

I think I came up with 1.25 but it really depends on how you build the box also.

Thanks guys. I am looking at doing a fiberglass enclosure.

After doing some more research I will most likely end up using a 10w6v2 and not a 10w7. The 10w7 is just too massive . It would have been a great setup.

Thanks for your input.

Dude you can do it! Just don't forget the depth of the carpet.... not that I did that or anything just something to keep in mind.

Look for Conqueror, he has a bad **** box that I copied. Leolufsle has a pretty darn sweet box for the rear compartment if you decide not to go with glass. Hit him. He has pretty decent pricees. I'll vouch for him as we spent all day saturday working on my car.
