just send me those pos thing and I'll dispose of them
anything can be made to fit but will require some custom work, for those subs I think rockford suggests a sealed box, a ported one will play louder but need to be bigger

the little flip down cover thing in the rear trunk is about 32 inches wide...15+15=30. oh yeah, it'll fit. just basically make a flat thing for the back and bam it'll work.

wow my descriptions suck.

add an inch for the basket, and a half inch for support and you get 32 1/2

it took me 16 15's to blow a window out of my van and that was barely and after alot of playing with pressures and competition, the reason spl competitors strap the windows is because of flex, strapping raises spl slightly (when your talking tenths of a db it all matters) if it does blow that means it was about to come out from a deteriorated seal anyway

When I got my subs installed the guy said that if I had mine turned up that it would bust out a window cause it puts so much pressure in the car cause its all open to the hatch...I know one of my friends busted out a window and she only had 1 10 sub in her firebird
