[QUOTE="Subless, post: 8495371, member: 669685"] I want to put it essentially on top of the wheel well. It won't form fit to it, but done right it could look like just natural round speakers in that location. If I can keep the length of the tube less than 8", it won't encroach on cargo space. I will get rid of the stock 8" sub enclosure and actually free up some space. At least that's the idea; execution may be an entirely different matter. I'll see if I can get a photo to help illustrate. I cut out a very rough 14" circle of cardboard and held it in place last night where I want the enclosure to go. The real trick to this is going to be the mounting. This company might come in handy. I virtually stumbled onto them - [URL="http://www.shortrunpro.com/l_bracket_c_vhv81ytw_vhv1ytw_vhv1ytw.aspx"]OEM Brackets-L Bracket[/URL] Cost is everything though.
