Like make a box to actually fit in the passenger seat in the back? Can't say I've ever seen anything like that. Do it and make the box in the shape of a person, you can have the speaker mounted in the stomach and have a port as the mouth with voltmeters for the eyes and two caps for the arms. Make hair out of random gauges of wire and then soundproof the whole thing with your choice of sound deadening to make him whatever ethnicity you want.

purerx7...that is a sweet looking box. What brand of sub is that? What kind of power you running? Only down side would be the absence of the rear strut bar.

Currently its running a 12" soundsplinter rl-p signed edition, im going to pick up the new idq v3 when it comes out. Its running off of 2 channels of a audison lrx 6ch amp and its getting around 400rms. The rear strut bar does fit i just havent put it back on yet.
