By the way after you get the DB6501 setup, your going to need more bass. I have a great subwoofer setup to show when I get the chance to take a pic. You use the spare tire/wheel itself as the enclosure- no fiberglassing required. Just seal the bottom with foam weatherstripping where the wheel makes contact. the rubber tire will seal the top (peace of thick plywood). Cut a hole for the woofer. Crank it down with nylon straps/ratcheting mechanisms. I threw the carpet right on top. The ratchet mechanisms propped it up so it wouldn't touch the speaker.
