i have not seen the inside of a coupe well enough to know if there is room for a box behind the seats, but i am sure any audio shop will be able to fiberglass a sub box to fit where you want the sub. It depends i know shops around here charge 500+ depends on the size of box and if you want the box painted or wrapped in a vinyl.

Im going to do the same setup. Any ideas about what I should expect to pay for the custom build and install for this project (building the fiberglass box, installing, sub, head unit) ???? I have the amp and sub already but dont want to get screwed on the install of everything.

would a 10" sub fit or is the 8" the way to go

I'll throw a link to my thread in here so the guys can get an idea of what can be done in the coupe model.

A 10 inch sub may fit in there, but would be cutting it close. The depth of the sub would be a worry as well as the width between the seats.

For a custom box like that id say 500-700, Prices around here for sub install is about 20 a sub, a head unit is about 75 if u get nav about 100, amp is about 30.

Thanks for the info. My installer says that 10" would fit but wanted to make sure. $500-$700 is about right as well. This is what I'm going with-----

I had a custom box made for my Z based on what was shown in this thread! Thanks for the idea.

Nice, really like that. I am going to aim for a truck box in the boot... once I can get the Bose system back in working order!
