Default Sub Box ideas

I have 2 10s in the back of my 4dr but the box takes up way too much room. Would like to keep both subs and put them in separate boxes on either side of the cargo area. Anyone done something similar? If so, post a pic

I have two 10 shallow mounts under the front seats. Works well and doesn't take up any space.

Will the subs into the rear seat work in the 4 door. I felt the back of my seat and it feels like it is built different than the seat posted in the pictures.

I found a great subbox enclosure that looks portable or easy install.
There is a few that you can either buy all ready to go or if your like me that has a few subs or amps from other vechicles i am looking at just an enclosure to put my exsisting L5 solo baric and mount my amp

Thanks for all the feedback, but I've seen these ideas. I what two boxes on each side so I don't harm them, or they don't get in the way while hauling stuff in the cargo area with the seats down in a 4 dr. Seen anything like that?

I researched at the local shops around here and most people say that in order to get good bass you need around 500 RMS x 2 at a 2 ohm
Or 1000 watts Continuous
Not peak
That being said it requires a fairly good sized box
They suggest to have one removable for offroading with amp mounted to it so it would be easy to take out

I got what you need but what Cu. Ft. do you need..?

I just made it last week. (got the Jeep the week before) Its .90 cu. ft. Which is perfect for my Infinity sub. (per there site and my ears)














It attaches by using a small piece of aluminum angle to a factory top bolt location. The rear with the straps...Its actually extremely rigid like that. Right now i have the hardtop off and its fine using the bolt even without the top there.
