so im bored, im out of work for a week or so, and i have a 1200 watt 12" kenwood sub, rockford fozgate amp and plenty of time..

ive decided to build a box that will fit over the hump in the rear floor board to hold the sub. the top will be level with the seats and i will move the cup holders up and angle the face of it in so the center arm rest will still be able be lifted up. im in the process now of finding a table saw to borrow.

here is a crude mspaint drawing. the bottom will slide tightly over the sides of the hump in the floor and i will have a bracket to bolt it down to the rear bolts of the front seats where they meet the floor.

ill probably have my amp mount under the passenger seat as my other amp is under my driver seat.

now i just need a damn saw! :superhack:

Is that going to be big enough?

I just have a 10 inch in a truck box on my center hump, and its a tiny box. Of course you may have more room than I do too
