License plate is just a reference towards the direction I'm talking about.

Lol... Personally I'd use an aero for all the work that octoport is gonna be, plus an aero is more efficient.

Aero port are so ugly imo.

Given the smaller dimensions I've posted, did the pair of sa15's fly out the window? Lol

Wonder if your gonna experience the same thing in your p/u as I am with mine....bass is louder/deeper with either window or door open. I gotta single 8 in a t-line box, sub/port firing towards ceiling.

I get that now with my x10 but my windows stay down, even on my way to work at 4am lol

Designing with an octoport is all well and good but in my experience the length might be an issue... personally I'd stick to a slot subs/port up slid all the way back to the rear wall up to the window line.

That's just me tho, and the space available will work I think after just looking at the measurements really quick.

Sweet! What's the asking price for a design with cutouts?

Try your best for an octoport, if not... would a kerf port be runner up to an octoport?

I think people think the enclosure will be louder with a kerfed port. They may have tested it with some subs but turns out they weren't as loud or louder than reg slot port. Kerfs might be a cosmetic thing or just for looks or smoother sound. Shredder, thoughts on this?

Octo port is my ideal port unless the aero is internal then I will not mind either way.

I'd like one sub behind each seat facing forward to minimize the visual presence of a sub but if this will sacrifice sound, I'm open to best scenario setup. With the box length, I'll have about 1-2" per side before touching my doors (in case port fires towards door).

Any preference as far as where you want subs and port orientation?

I think my new Preference is facing forward and port up. I've been trying to dig up frontier videos and builds for the past few days. Info I gather is face forward or up on subs and port up.

Thanks, when I say builds, it's to see enclosure setups and sub positions.

Found a decent setup except I have a crew cab.

Sooooo... will this fit then?

It's port/subs up, I hope it will be able to fit thru the door... lol

I'll need to make a prototype out of cardboard but I think it will fit.

Aero port is a no go?
