Hey I've read some threads about people swapping out their mach subs (I blew mine within a week of having my ex). I have removed the panel and retrieved the sub box which is now sitting empty in the back of my X.

What I have failed to gather from any of these threads is what sub will fit in the factory enclosure. Someone said the Infinity ref850w but I'm not sure they make those anymore and the mounting depth looks too deep from the specs.

I measured a mounting depth of 3-6/8" on the factory box.

I'm not trying to spend anymore than $150 on this so your suggestions would be greatly appreciated
 






I've read that these will fit but haven't tried them myself: jl audio 8w3, Kenwood KFC-XW800F 8" 4-ohm
I used fuel line as a spacer on mine and it worked great. Fast and easy too.
