RE: Sub Box
Build one that goes between the center console and the rear seats. That is what I did with mine. Got the box plans from a guy that has a 2002. You won't be able to use a 10" but you can use an 8" Kicker L5 or L7. I have an L5 in mine and it does okay. This summer will do an L7 and a bigger amp. The sub fires down. Email me at chumkiller@yahoo.com if you would like the plans he sent me. He used 1/2" MDF but I used 3/4". Those Solobarics can wreak havoc on a thin box.

RE: Sub Box
I was thinking about making something along the lines to this picture--maybe out of carpet covered MDF....With maybe one sub, with it's magnet protuding down into a hole cut in the floor under the L/R seat bottom. Wire in an amp and you've got a "hidden sub AND you can lift up the seat for louder sound or lower it for passenger space.....Do you think that would work?

RE: Sub Box
You mean MTX box??
It goes behind theback seat behind the driver's seat (the 40 part of the 60/40 rear seat)
The only thing is that you can't flip up that part of the backseat with the box installed......I hid my amp underneath the seat there (when I had it).......it's a very stealthy setup!
This is with the seat back off:
And where my amp was (seat flipped up for the picture):

RE: Sub Box
I mounted my amp under the right rear seat and had a box built like the MTX and mounted in the same place.
Had I known this MTX would fit my 06I would have bought one, but they are listed for an 04. Oh well.
