Default Stealth Fitting

I have my stealth box in. I just don't like how the rear(part towards the back of the car) of the box is not sliding all the way in. What can i do to get it to slide in and get a nice flush look?

The one in the cubby hole area. Its a pretty small piece. No bigger than 3x3 IIRC.

It protrudes out of the top part. It's a fairly small piece that hangs down a couple inches max. I'd just cut it out and slide the box right in. What box do you have because some go deeper and are wider than others.

Nope! 10" Rockford Fosgate Punch 2. Its wayyyy overkill for me too. I mounted the amp in the spare tire well. Got a piece of metal and bent a 90* about 2.5 inches in and drilled it into the wall thats on the side where the t tops store. If yall want I can get pics of it too. its kinda messy in there right now I still need to route the wires for a more clean look in there.
