I am looking at getting back into the Mustang thing with a 97-98 Cobra.

I have a smaller system in the truck I have right now, but want to pull it out and yank the Mach 460 from the cobra.

What I want to do is to mount my Memphis 10" in the rear deck between the two 5x7s. The 10" is currently in a sealed box - what needs to happen in order to mount it and enclose it if necessary?

Thanks for any input

Well, I already have a sub that I would want to use...so I don't really need to buy one. I just want to know what the best way to mount it in the rear deck and enclose it - if anyone has done this.

But thanks for the input.

a mold out of fiberglass is about he only way since the deck is not perfeclty flat, or build a box that holds the sub in the correct place? might be more effective to make a nice sealed enclosure and call it a day. Subs in a sealed trunk sound better (acts as 2nd enclosure)
