good luck, i had 2 15's in my s10, and haven't thought of a way to put them in my box.
if you do find a good way, to make them easy to take out when needing to haul luggage/crap ... let me know!

Only one way man.... complete fiberglass on the floor, 1" MDF up the sides and the subs firing upward toward the ceiling... your choice of port on the face.....1" MDF face as well.... and brace the hell out of it.... man that'd be awesome, right?

Man that's gonna be tough, I had a pair of 15's in a sealed box for a short while, the box went to the top of the seats and still was really too small. I still had my spare tire and small storage area at the time so I coulda gained alittle more air space if I had removed those. I really can't imagine fitting a pair of 15's AND porting them. I hope you can figure something out, Good luck!!

dude there is no sense in spending all that money fiberglassing i can fit 12 12's with NO fiberglass at all i have 3 bout to do 8 just drop your spare and build off the base surface i mean 2 15's is a piece of cake if 3 12's was easy thats 36" vs 30" of cone space easy squeeze

If you use a pair of RE Audio SX15's and some aero ports you should be able to do it easily.

get some nice speakers polks or alpine if your shooting for competition sound both of those can do the trick unless your just shooting for intimidation by going with 15's i'd recommend 12's in an xb you could do 15's easy, as stated earlier, but 12's would be easier to work with and can get more cone space in easier cone space=more db's

ha ha i know im just leanin towards buying another project and leaving this one for the daily driver it was meant to be. im not going to get the results that i want without removing the back seat and making a wall from the b pillar back which defeats the purpose of having a 4 door vehicle, you know.
