OK new question. I did some measuring in my trunk. The measurement between the rear wells is approx. 35 1/2''. that way the box will be all the way up against the back seat. The question is the box calls for 36 wide and 25.5'' deep.. Can i make the box say 34 wide and 27.5 deep? You get what i'm sayin? The box is RE specs for dual 12'' Sql.

not quite that easy, take your demensions...H X W X D

and figure out your net Cu FT

Then re adjust to the room you have and get your last side based on how it will match up to your orignal demensions

odd about Canada prices being higher - bc i think a lot of US lumber comes from Canada.

Will you update us with pics of your progress?
