I need a design or pattern for a custom made box for my car. Is there anybody out there that can help me out? I have a 1998 Honda Accord and I want to put 4 10" 2 10" or 2 12" in it(I,m not really sure on this just yet). The problem is, I want the trunk to remain as close to how it came from the manufactor as possible and I want to keep my spare tire in it's place. Is it possible? If it is, can someone help my with the design?

I also want the box to be a sealed enclosure.

what you are asking for is not really possible unless you want to give up the rear seat...
especially for 4 woofers sealed...

What woofers and amps are you thinking about using? You say custom, you plan on using fiberglass and MDF, or just MDF?
I'd recommend either 4 Kicker 10L7's (4 ohm DVC), each in 1 cu ft chambers, powered by 2 Kicker KX1200.1's. Or 2 Kicker 12L7's (4 ohm DVC), each in 2 cu ft chambers, powered by 1 Kicker KX1200.1. Both set-ups would be 4 cu ft (internal), and would take up a majority of your trunk.

I think I'm gonna run 2 12". I'm thinking on the line of the JL Audio 12W7-3(1.625 cu. ft. max.) or 12W6v2-D4(1.50 cu. ft. max) or the new Pioneer TS-W5000SPL(1.50 cu.ft. recommended).

I have yet to hear those new pioneer spl subs but they sure do look kinda sweet. I know for a fact that there aren't many subs out there that are better than the JL W7s, so if you can afford those you really can't go wrong with them. ------------- Ethan

If you’re considering the W7's I would not even think about going with the pioneers. My first choice would be the W7 and then the W6v2. I have never been a huge fan of Pioneers subs they don’t perform nor do they sound that great.
