Default 2011 Factory Sub

Have a stock setup but want the enclosure, is that something that can be ordered through a local dealer? I know the older models are around ebay but I would prefer the 2011 model, with or without the actual sub.

I tried mopar sites but nothing came up for woofers in 2011 as it did for the 2012 version.

thanks

I looked into it and the stock sub enclosure for a 2011 runs about $430.

For that price you would be better off building or buying a aftermarket sub box and amp with a 10inch sub, assuming you can do the install yourself.

I did some research and found the same thing - JEEZ... that's steep. I'm going to try to find a member who would part with theirs, especially for those who added their own setup as well. Thanks for the help!

I am not convinced that they sell the woofer panel without the sub or 12v plug.

It may very well be all included with the part #.

I know for a fact that a 2011 console base comes witht he 12v plug pre-installed...

I think you are correct... it comes as a set - for 400+, it had better!

I see these coming around second-hand pretty often, I think that it would save you a good amount of money either getting the enclosure only or the whole sub.

I have my eyes peeled, I can find a bunch of pre-2011's but they redesigned them this year and i'd prefer it match the rear trim... if anyone has a 2011 setup they would like to get rid of, i'm interested. of course will provide them with my alternate trim for their 2011 as well!

I definitely would like to find something that takes up less space than what I currently have in the back. I have an isobaric box with a 10" sub...I saw something on the rugged ridge website once about subs/ box sitting in a plastic molded box...looked kind of cheesy but was out of the way and sat up vertically...goos space saver.

A plastic box will never sound good. Not dense enough and too much resonation. Stick with mdf or fibeglass
