sean1991olds Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 I would have put this in audio except it is specific to the convertible.I'd rather not use screws if possible. The installer shoved the box where the top normally folds down into which is great until I want to use the convertible as a convertible The box I have is tall/skinny and tips over easy. My thought was to put it in the middle of the trunk and run some bungee/straps under the spare tire then over the box. Trunk floor would prob get in the way though. Quote
Psych0matt Posted May 17, 2016 Report Posted May 17, 2016 Not really helpful, but in my GTP the box tapers a bit, so I can wedge it tight under the rear strut brace Quote
GOT2B GM Posted May 18, 2016 Report Posted May 18, 2016 Lay the box down so it isnt as tippy? Heartbeat1991 1 Quote
Imp558 Posted May 18, 2016 Report Posted May 18, 2016 Get the parameters for the speakers and use an enclosure design program to make a box that not only fits correctly but sounds better than a prefab box. Quote
sean1991olds Posted May 18, 2016 Author Report Posted May 18, 2016 I ended up for now anyway laying it down as GOT2B GM said, reason I didn't do that before was the amp was mounted to the back of the sub. I had always had the amp mounted to the back seat, but for some reason on the car this came out of, the installer had mounted it to the sub. GOT2B GM 1 Quote
GabsOlds Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 Got any pictures? Â I'm working on putting a system together. Interested in seeing how much room is left with the box in there. Quote
Imp558 Posted May 19, 2016 Report Posted May 19, 2016 http://www.diyaudioandvideo.com/Calculator/SpeakerBoxEnclosure/ Â If you design your own enclosure you can have a lot more control over the fit. Also be able to tailor what it sounds like. Different brands of drivers will have different parameters and thus different size enclosure needs. Quote

sean1991olds Posted May 24, 2016 Author Report Posted May 24, 2016 I would lay this out differently, but the wiring limits different positioning. The sub/box is a JL Audio CS110-WXv2. Â Psych0matt, GabsOlds and tonytoca_87 3 Quote
