Why would you want everyone to be able to see into your trunk ?

I don't know if you need the rear seats but modifying a rear seat delete with a plexi window from the inside would look good. I did something similar with a jaguar I worked on a couple of decades ago.

eh, that'd just be asking for people to break in and steal whatever you have in your trunk.

Thieves like sound systems.

Screw the box, I would just take the speakers and amps. No reason for a thief to steal a box, custom made for a mustang unless, its going to be put in another one

Question, with the box in place, how would you replace the rear shocks? Does it have to be taken apart? I'm assuming it does.

You can't get the speakers out of it without taking apart or destroying the box!

Never thought about replacing them... I'll figure it out later on when that time comes.

I can get to the shocks so that won't be a problem.
