Help me please. I need to build a 1cu ft sealed box or 1.1cu ft ported box. I want to put it here (back of Jimmy):

...mounted to the wall and then kinda 'morphed' into the factory interior with carpeting, trim, blah, blah, blah.

The space I measured for this single 10" sub box is 16" tall to bottom of window by 12" wide from rear of interior to back of wheel hump by 6" ideally (possible 8" if necessary) deep.

My Kenwood KDC-W2505 10's specs are;
power range 35-300 watts RMS peak power 600 watts frequency range 28-800 Hz sensitivity 91 dB SPL top mount depth: 4-1/2" sealed box volume 1.0 cubic feet ported box volume 1.1 cubic feet

What can I do? How do I figure this out? What the heck have I gotten myself into now?Upload

well with those measurments the biggest you could fit is about .5cu/ft before speaker displacement.

well, crap. How big a box am I gonna need? I really need the most space I can keep in order to haul my tubs and boxes that contain my BBQ gear when I go compete.

any ideas? I have two tens and want them in the back here without taking up any space...lol. Typical, huh?

So if you had two 10's that need 1cf per speaker, where would you stick 'em in order to leave the middle open and the seats able to fold down and on and on.....

photo shows where I would like them, but that space, as mentioned above is really not just right, ya know? I need some help from someone that does this daily that can give me an idea of what I can do.
