Default Box suggestions for a single 12

I have a single 12" sub I am getting ready to install but i'm not too happy with the looks of the current box. The carpet is ripped and peeling back and the box only fits in the trunk facing up.Iam going to make a new box for it, so I want some ideas. Ineed something thats not going to take up too much room.

Is keeping the speaker facing up a good idea? If so, I may just re-carpet the box. I really dont mind building a box, and i already have the materials/tools laying around. So if someone has a good idea for a box, let me know.

This is going to be a sealed box in a 04 Mustang.

Is the speaker designed for a sealed box install? You also need to look up for what are the recommeded box volumes for various configurations are for that speaker. If you have the spec sheet (thiele-small parameters)you should be able to look up the recommend box type and volume for the speaker through google. If you don't know what the specs are use this website to see if they're listed. They didn't have some of the ones I plugged in but your luck may be better.

The speaker is a 12" eclipse. I've got to take it out of the speaker box to check the model number, but at this point I just wanted to get ideas of the best way to place the speaker in the trunk. If i get the design I want, I can calculate the right volume afterwards.
