hey im new to this forum but been a mustang owner for a while, my current mustang is an 02 coupe. as of now i have a 12" sub sealed in my trunk. after christmas i want to go to 2 12" subs ported. it was hard enough 2 put in this small box, so i dont know how to put in two 12"s. i was thinking of trying from the inside but the from the trunk floor to the little metal hinge(connected 2 the firewall) that has the seat belt clips on it, is like 11.5", just a tiny bit to small. 1) is there any way to take that 2 inch surrounding piece of metal off, then put it back on? 2? is there any way to completely strip that wall and rear deck to get a huge box in ther. i mean i am lookin at a 4 cu ft box, so these r my options. if anyone has some good install pics or detail instructions or even some suggestions it will be much appreciated. thanks.
 
:shrug: Couldn't tell ya, i'm not an audio guy... but if ya have any engine questions! I'd say you'd be better off going with 2 10's (kicker Solo Baric L7's) and some fiberglass. two 12's is a bit much for a little car like a stang, but if youre wanting to do that, then you should look in the show & shine or the audio sections of these forums. Other than that i'd say go with a smaller box, or go with two small boxes rather than one big one
 
I had a hard enough time getting my one '12 sub and I had to recut the box 2 times and it still didn't fit properly. I think it's possible, but your going to have to give up some space in your box. I don't think you can remove that metal part, I was thinking about doing to same for mine, but no dice. I instead, removed the space tire, and moved the carpet back and fitted part of the box into it and then moved it back. It barely got in there.

Here's a pic of my box if it helps:

What kind of subs are you going with? Because if you have crappy subs... its pointless to go through with a huge install, when you could get a nice sub that will fit in easily for the same price... just let me know and i can help you out... i have a little bit of experience ...

just remember... "You gotta pay... to play."
