I used a combination of 3/4" and 1/2" MDF rings, stacked, nailed, glued and sealed with silicon. i really did not care about the look since it will be hidden under the carpet.

Later on I want to buy an Alpine 4 channels amp for the fronts and rears. I know that the rears are not needed but I had already purchased them when i read your advise on this site.

I will keep you all updated.

Cool, that's kinda what I was thinking it looked like from the picture. I recommend using drywall screws instead of nails as they will never come loose and a caulking tube of F-26 liquid nail to glue/seal. Thanks for sharing, I've been wanting to do something in that same spot, but have never messed with fiberglass so what you've come up with is a good potential solution.

As popular a "stealth" position as this is for the car, as well as the fact that this location was also the bose location......... you'd think we'd see an aftermarket enclosure for this by now
