Aftermarket Subwoofer set-up (trunk)
Aftermarket Subwoofer set-up (trunk)
I have a 2011 GT with the base stereo.
From the prior car I owned I have a Rockford/Fosgate Mono D AMP and two 12" Polk Audio Subs. Was an unreal setup in the prior vehicle.. It's why I kept the components... The box the Subs were in is gone as it was BIG and fit in the back of an SUV, but I did save the subs and the AMP.
Old box with Subs still in them...

I was thinking of getting a single box for the two 12's but that would take away the pass thru in the trunk and limit space.
Instead I'm thinking of getting a boxed 10" sub for the back right corner of the Trunk and using the amp plus new front speakers.
I've seen a SALEEN 12" side box once but I don't think they're available for purchase (stand alone part). I like the idea of using the back corners instead of eliminating central space or the pass thru..
What have you people done???
Appreciate the thoughts.

Do you have a source on where you purchased?
I called Crutchfield on that JL Box and the guy said it's a 13.5 Sub and Box assembly. Also said it's for a 2010... The picture shows a 2011 or later..

They advertize working on 2005-2009, but I can confirm it works on 2010 and up as well. The one thing I would suggest is to make a small braket for the top. It's only held down by 2 screws on the bottom and wiggles without a top bracket. I just used a small, flat piece of sheet metal, bent it, and drilled holes in it so I could mount it to the top of the box and the chassis. Works great.
After reading this thread I started looking around and it looks like Ebay is full of 80 dollar single 12" boxes.

I don't know how well they fit though.

If it says it fits a 2010, it will fit in 2010-2014 models.

Nice, I also added speakers and need a separate amp or powered Head Unit next..
I can barely turn up the gain on the sub, after I power up the speakers it'll balance out and sound outstanding... Pretty good right now, love a good sound system.
