Agreed. JBL makes good space saver boxes but they r pricey.

Build your own with fiberglass. It is a lot of work but well worth it in the end

i was able to track down a 2011 factory sub and put in a fosgate 8", love it. stashed the fosgate pbr300x1 under the steering wheel and everything is concealed and factory looking.... along with high end fosgate mids and tweeters.

totally happy with the way the project came out.
