Default Will a 12" fit??

I was looking into getting a 12" sub for my trunk but was recently told that it most likely wont fit back there. I measured and its about 13 to 14 inches high in the trunk sooo i was just wondering if it was possible to get a 12" in there

Just make your own box it will be alot cheaper. I still have the drawings and dimensionsfor my single 12 box Imade if you want to copy it.

I have 2 12's in mine I wouldnt recommend making your own box unless your good with your hands and have done relevant work before. Depending on your sub as well you have to have enough space and volume or else it will sound like crap!!

Building a box is really easy. You can even get home depot or lowes to cut you mdf for like $.10 a cut. Just make sure they double measure and you havechecked your box design.

www.bcae1.com has a great box building tutorial. It is really really easy to build a box.

What is your budget? Do you need an amp too?

Box building is really simple if you have the knack...
