95 convertible question i have a 1995 convertible T/A and i want to put subs in it and i know for the regular hardtop with the hatchback that most subs won't fit without buying a sub box and i was wondering if that is the same for convertibles or do they have more trunk space

either custom make your own box...its easy as hell...oooorrrrr jus put subs in the slot already in the car.. Out to the side of the truck.. theres already room for 2 10 inchers.. So either the custom box or just put subs in there....Just puttin subs in the sides where there is already a slot is the best IMHO...

its not for clearity, its because i want some thump
the vert does have less space in the trunk, if space is no concern then use your entire trunk, you can always have an audio shop see if they can fab up a box for you if you don't feel confertable with it.
You need to do things quite differently in a convertible, because the sound needs to get through to the passenger cabin (with top up) and basically fire through the top (when closed).
It's not a simple case like in the hatchbacks of just tossing a box in the hatch and being done with it. This approach in a convertible will just give you a rattling trunk lid and bad sound.
The nicest boxes I've seen mount on the top trunk shelf and package 8" subs (2-4). Search around for the threads, they can be found.
