Default Sub is in...

Everything is in. Took a while and the heat here didn't make it very fun. I still need to mount the amp. I'm not sure how I want it yet. Or, if I even want it back there...

The JL W3 10" Sub in the Stealth Enclosure...


Remote Mounted Gain Control...

Now you see it..


Now you don't..


Perfect fit..


And the Amp. Not sure if I want it in this location or not. It's so thin(1.7") that it really wouldn't interfere with anything mounted this way. But, making the wires look good is my worry. Anyone know if I'd be at risk of hitting anything directly behind there if I tapped holes for screws??

is that remote gain or did you mean bass boost? box looks good......solid sub as well

I believe you have a decent amount of space to mount the amp there -- I've seen them there before on bare metal -- look under the car to make sure (obviously)

If you do mount the amp there tho, it is relatively close to the bottom of the well (as opposed to an amp rack or similar in back) and whatever you do put in the trunk might scratch your amp (if that's a concern at all).

It's a subthump. And it sonds great by the way. very clean and clear bass which is what I'm looking for. I'm not one to have pounding bass. The remote is for gain not bass boost.

It's a BLAUPUNKT THA1350 amp.
