Ideas for installing subs

Has anyone had any experience installing 12's in their C5? I am looking for ideas on what size box to build and where to put it?

12inch Rockford Fosgate Stage 2. Box bought on eBay - do a search for "ProBox". Box is substantially bigger than the SubThump box, BTW.

I started a project last year but stopped to make a go fast project priority. That project is close to its end and I should start back on the stereo project next week. I will be running two 10s. The bottom of this page shows what progress I've made on the stereo and some of the components I have to install.

Now EG, on the other hand, keep an eye on him as he changes his system once every couple of months.

Hey, I didn't see those pages before - now it makes my feeble attempts look totally ghetto

Well, we'll see how it comes out. This is my first time doing a stereo with all that crazy fiberglass stuff.
