Looking for suggestions/opinions on dual sub box in 944

[aeronautica86 10+ year member]

Alright, I've got a 944 turbo, and I'm looking to put a system in it. Right now, I want to rip out the rear seats and put an enclosure where the seats usually are and have a couple of questions for you guys. First of all, should I build a box with the subs facing the back of the seats, or facing up? I'd rather place them pointing forward to draw less attention, but if they would sound like crap I'd do something else. Here are some pics of the car and how it will look with no rear seats in it:

I'm planning on using 2 subs, not sure if I'll go with 8s or 10s, but I'll use one of the following drivers: Soundsplinter RL-i8 or RL-i10 or DD audio 2510a. I'm also planning on going with a sealed box for simplicity, and mounting the amp either in a compartment built below the sub box or in a vented enclosure in the hatch area right behind where the sub box would be. Any suggestions on setup would be appreciated, or if this is a bad idea, let me know. Thanks in advance

Id say pointing forward, towards the dash, and behind your head. Just get a nice securty system before you do this. Get one of those, where if its opened, alarm sounds, and if it is tipped to a certain degree, everything locks up. (because thats the new way to steal cars, used towtrucks. They just pick them off, and take off with them.

But, anyways, in a car like that, and you plan on gettin some nice sound, I seriously think that secuurity is a must.

Thanks for the response, I think facing forward will work as well. As far as security goes, I've been planning on putting a security system in, and was going to include it when I put in the sound system, but I'm not sure what to get.

Does anyone have a recommedation for a good security system? One thing I want is a fairly understated key fob, not a funky shaped or pager system...

I reframed from helping, because to tell you the truth, I dont know all the much. But, the sub mots refered to me, would be the Kicker CVR. I made a thread on it. Im getting dual 12''s in my trunk. Thats what id reccomend tho, because thats what im getting.
