I'm trying to. but I can't figure out where to buy it. Everytime I search that part number it comes up with the 1st Gen tC stealth box that goes in the spare.

it's on the JL site but not in the JL store yet. I would hit up a local dealer and order it that way. I wish there was a price. I hope it's cheaper than the tC1 model.

id get it, but going from 2 8w7's to a single 10w3 just wouldnt work for me, lol. i had 3 10w3 and then switched to the 8w7's and it was about the same output, so i know i couldnt do just one

thinking about doing a similar box that goes back to the seat and into the storage space a little for my w7s. just gotta get around to wanting to do fiberglass, lol. might take awhile

As soon as i can figure out how to order, i'll get it. Been trying the site to no avail. Maybe i'll be the first to have it on here.

Its not one for each side, it will just be the passenger side box.

I asked them about this back in August/September last year and they weren't sure if they were making it! Too bad they didn't just tell me to hold off, because I already bought 2 8W3's, a 250/1, and a 300/4. Unfortunately though I wont be using them in this car...perhaps the next!

Depending on price though, I'd consider this. JL builds an awesome product!

Online you can buy it here http://www.specialistscaraudio.com/stealthbox.html they have a 10% discount on stealthboxes and they're a authorized online dealer = warranty.

Any JL audio retailer with a store can order it for you. Call you local car audio shop for a price.

F Me!!! I've been trying to order the stealthbox but JL says if its not listed, i'd have to get it from an authorized dealer. Authorized dealer tells me they can't find it listed. I can't order from their online store either. Crutchfield doesn't have it and specialistscaraudio told me i'd have to pick it up. They are in Arizona! Any other suggestions?

Try to make friends with someone in Arizona that can pick it up and ship it to you. Check out the regional forums here.

tell JL to go F' themselves since they can't seem to launch a product successfully. I have had great experiences with JL products and quality but availability issues of new products has always been a nightmare when they launch new lineup and series equipment. There customer service is nearly non-existent as well. too bad. You could probably get a local shop to build you one for the same price... or less.

Finally was able to find a place that can get it for me. Jl customer service was horrible when I called last week and of course, this week they are closed until next week. Cost was 499.95 with free shipping and no tax. I'll let you guys know how quality and install go when I get it in.

Finally purchased the Stealthbox and received it. I haven't hooked it up yet to see how it sounds, but just put it where it goes so you guys can see it.

Finally installed it. Install was very easy and instructions were well written. I'm running an alpine mrp-m500 amp and its got really clean bass. Not too loud and obnoxious. It made a huge difference since I had replaced my stock speakers and had no woofer. This thing is clean, sounds amazing, and for the price is well worth it.
