Default Need Speaker box dimensions

Can someone give me the specs on the rear box as pictured below? This one's from Corvette Central. I don't want to fork out $200 clams, so I'd like to make one myself and I like this one. Thanks!

Make it just big enough to hold 6x9s and long enough to fit between the sides of the car. That box will have more airspace than a pair of 6x9s needs anyways.

ATC, I built a flat plate type that fit in the corners from a template on CF. I want more sound, so I am going to the $29.00 boxes as soon as the car comes out in April. Too much salt around her in upstate NY.

Got the boxes yesterday. Two for $30 including shipping. They're in the car and sound great!

Please remember to screw them down. So many people just let them sit in their car not realizing they've just created two 10lb projectiles during a crash.
