[QUOTE="LsGuy, post: 8719196, member: 681035"] I get what you are saying, but my down fire box design from the rear drivers floorboard would have the opening pointing forward under the drivers seat with all other directions closed off by the foot well. Would this not concentrate the sound waves forward in one direction? Im not set on any one placement or design yet. I can't use a prop rod for the trunk, being my work vehicle my hands are almost always full when loading the trunk. I was actually considering installing one of those foot sensors to open the trunk so I wouldn't even have to use a hand to push the key fob button. Loading and unloading my trunk are a daily occurance. I was looking at it again yesterday, and I may be able to use extension springs to open and hold it. This would require no drilling or welding. It would be trial and error to find the correct spring weight. I'm thinking at the angle they would pull, 40 lbs on each side may do the trick. Finding a 6 inch extension spring that can extend a further 6 inches is tricky though. [/QUOTE]
