So, I just bought a '94 SC400 today and look in the truck and to my amazement thats where the gas tank is!! Right where my speaker box is supposed to go!

Any of you have an SC? I'd like to see how other people are arranging their subs. I was thinking a 10" in a single box on each side? Can anyone link me some pictures to give me ideas.

edit: added year of car

That does help! It looks like he's using the spare tire well which he almost has to since there's no trunk space...

I was thinking of putting a sub at each end facing inwards. Has anyone had success with that?

I have done that in my stang before with sealed enclosures. and it sounded good. But when I switched to vented boxes they took up almost all availabe room in my trunk so now if I lower my seats all you see is my subs and the vent. For my personal taste I like the sound of the 2 JL 12w6's I have firing into the car rather than at the back of the trunk.
