Unfort I pretty much listen to Rap, so if you dont think that will sound very good I wonder if my best bet is to just put in some better speakers. What do you guys think? Right now I just have the stock speakers in my 05 stang, unfort I got screwed and didnt get to upgrade to the Shaker 500!! What do you guys think???

HAHA Very Nice, that is a sick setup!!! What kind of Jeep you have? I just got a 2003 Grand Cherokee Overland for my winter car, hence why I have no money anymore!!! I need to move to FL so I can sell it and then sell my stang and get a Shelby!!!

how do you keep that to stay in the back? Seat belt or some type of straps?? That doesnt look too bad at all, is it pretty loud cause its right by ur head?

thats definitely a pre made box. or someone has too much time on there hands....the carpet and the plastic is way to complicated, it looks manufactured..... but i'll put an order in for a box like that. looks sweet.

I realize this may not be the answer you are looking for but what about getting a complete Shaker 500 sound system from a wrecked vert / coupe and use that? I have the Shaker 500 system and it rocks better than my Clarion CD/MP3 tuner attatched to an Infinity 300 Watt amp and Fosgate 10" woofers in truck boxes that is installed in my '96 Bronco. Just an idea to save on space.

the box is a q-logic from crutchfield. its strapped in the back of the box to the floor in the trunk,the box fits great,sounds incredible it can be ported or sealed just by removing 4 screws to change the baffel.the trunk space is soooo small mine has 2 amps, cap,and my batt no room for a decent size box

I have thought about this for awhile, I looked on here and could not find any, you know where I could get it and how much??

It''s not an 05, but you could use this same concept: 1992 Convertible hidden enclosures

I don''t like to loose the entire trunk, nor would I sacrifice the rear seat.

The best thing for subs in a vert is to stick them in the cabin somewhere...maybe replace the front door speakers with some 8 inch subs or put a rear seat eliminator and have some custom subs on that...who wants ppl in the back seat of your mustang anyway...I know I don''t, especially being convertible....
