    Think this would fit in my truck? At only 3 7/8" depth that wouldn't be too bad... I'm wondering if it would fit width wise though, the inside of the cab is 50" and if this is wider then nope. :rolleyes:

    Opinions? :cool:

    Very basic way to fix if it is too wide:

    Say for examples sake its 6 inches out...

    S1: Remove cloth
    S2: Measure half of the box
    S3: Cut 3 inches to the left of center
    S4: Make second cut 3 inches to the right
    S5: Rejoin the two peices needed
    S6: Throw out the off cuts

    Put cloth back on with the same process from Step 2. I don't know how they put it on I presume just glue.

    Then your finished. :waytogo:

    U really want to run 8" subs?

    And most of that enclosure looks to be useless space. The area between the speaker openings looks blocked off.

    I think you could build something like that yourself for the cost, and be able to run some shallow 10's. There are plenty out there that are 4.5" deep or less.

    I'm not sure about running one anymore. I was thinking of 8's just because I figured 10's wouldn't fit. That place gave me the run around anyways, so they aren't getting my business. Once everything else is done on the truck and I can concentrate on the interior I'll come back to this. I'll probably just stuff some speakers in the doors for now and that will suffice. BUT - I will be missing the low end... so I know it won't take long with that setup to want more. Always happens. :looney:
