i recently got my hands on an alpine type x 10" sub for only $88 which is a steal.(retail value is $450). it was the floor model at a local shop. anyway, i decided i wanted to get creative while installing this. i am not completely done (obviously), but should be within the next couple days. i liked the idea of the jl audio stealthbox, but paying that much for something i can just build is ridiculous. i did have to cut out part of a panel in the cargo area, but it will be covered by the box. here are some pics, and i will update pics when i am done.
the first pic is of the area where the box is going(i had to cut out that whole "cubby" thing because the magnet on my sub wouldnt fit in there. the next few pics are just different angles of the box. it is going to be covered in vinyl that is the same color as the interior plastic.

Great Idea!

Great idea! How did it turn out?

Was thinking of doing the same, do you have any pics of the finished install?

Yeah I wanna see that thing in there. Did you cover it with Vinyl?
 






thats pretty cool b/c that space is dead not having a 3rd row..i have a 3rd row so i'm still debating on how to make the box so i could still use the 3rd row
 






here is a pic of the finished product. it is covered in 1/2" foam then vinyl. the color looks a lot closer in person. anyway, i am very happy with the outcome and now a lot of my friends want custom boxes built for their cars. i just need to get a grill on there but havent found one that is deep enough that i like.

Sweeet!

Definitely a great job. I have two 12's in my Subaru, was thinking of splitting them up, I'm gonna grab a measuring tape right now and see if a 12 will fit in this location!

Again .... sweeet install

depending on the size of the magnet, it should work.
