    ok, i actually took a pic of what i started (and didnt finish yet because im sellin)

    this is the very very rough version of what i was thinking... basically i was bored one day and wanted to work on the VX outside so i got out the saw and rattle can to see if the spare would even fit, and if the subs would fit.

    i did test fit the full size spare (31 inch), and it WILL fit inside the rear door.... it does block your view out your rear view mirror, but i dont use that anyhow haha...

    where the spare tire mounts-


    and i 'microsoft painted' where the subs would go...





    i also like this design because it keeps the subs from being damaged, due to the full size spare being mounted in front of them...

    Jack, I think that would look good if it covered the entire opening. Then mount the subs (2 10's?")at an angle (left top/right bottom).If you 'glass the back you would have the entire spare area for volume.

    im strangly obsessed with things being symmectrical... so personally i wouldnt mount them angularly, but for some it might work better.
    i was planning on building a box then foam insulating the rest of the cavity to increase resonance. i was just gonna use two low powered 10's to achieve more than a shallow mount 12...

    and yes, it eventually would of had another peice that would go back from the top of what i have currently, to the window. and i was gonna mount the amp up top there... or maybe the air tank i purchased, and hide the compressor behind the box.
