I've seen a thread somwhere where a guy put subs in the rear panels by the back seat. It was a lot of custom work, and it made the body panels rattle. I built an enclosure for my S14 that fits on the cargo shelf between the backseat and trunk. I wanted to fit 2 8" subs, but didn't have enough room and settled for just 1. The problem that I ran into was interference with the trunk hinges and bars. The length of the box is just short of the rear speakers. I ended up with only 0.5 CU FT of volume. It sounds good at normal volumes, but will "bottom out" if I crank it up. I really need to make it bigger by building a more irregular shape to extend it under the rear speakers and fill in more of the area. My Amp is mounted vertically by the jack with just enough room to get the jack when needed. I did a good job of saving trunk space and made a big improvement on my stereo's bass response. I don't need much 'cus I listen to heavy metal. This would not be a good option if you want "war drums" that anounce your presence to the hood.
