[QUOTE="Joe89, post: 7930290, member: 583644"] While the local audio shop [I]could[/I] be great, my experience with even the "reputable" and highly rated (e.g. YELP) shops makes me think you should investigate other options. Even with shipping, you would be better off going with a box builder on this forum. You can check the vendor's section to see your options. Are you planning to do the rest of the installation yourself? When considering sealed vs ported, you have to determine how much trunk space you are willing to sacrifice. If you could go measure the maximum dimensions you can dedicate to the subwoofer (plus a couple extra inches on the plane which the sub is mounted, so it is not firing into your groceries/golfclubs), then we can give you better advice. Edit: Because you want the box to sit flush against the back seat, give dimensions in the following format... Height (From floor to rear deck lid) Width Depth 1: the depth (+~3" for clearance around woofer) along the floor to the base of the back seat Depth 2: the depth (+~3" again) from the top of the seat (your height value) You should be taking into consideration how the box will be maneuvered into the vehicle, if you build a cardboard mockup you can test to see that it will fit inside through the trunk opening.
