Default Sub Box in trunk

I want to get a box built with 2 sub woofers and an amp and put it in my 99 coupe's trunk. I dont care about trunk space, but I don't have a lot of money. Should i try to build and carpet my own box or have one built? Also, what are some good subwoofers (probably 10") and amps for the money?

one mtx 8500 a 10 inch if thats wat you want willbe fine with an mtx class d amp as far as 2 12s in the trunk of a mustnag that arent in the wheel well will be very hard to get in i have one 12 and it was a apin gettin in you could build a box that would fit but it wont be to factory specs and wont sound as good so go with one sub find the sub factory specs for the box and build away they arent hard but 1 12 would be fine i love mine

you can fit a pair of 12's in there no problem the trick is to build boxes for each in stead of just one. Build them your self its not hard to figure out the air space and read a ruler to get your measurements. Build the box out of 3/4 inch MDF, if you want cheaper and a little lighter use plywood. The best thing to seal the inside of the box is duct sealer.
