I built two ported enclosures for my 12" solo x's and moved my big system into my 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee. Big difference in sound... Way less flex also.0nly problem is when measuring the cargo space..my dumbass didn't take the wheel wells into consideration.. End result..... Boxes dont fit properly. By making the new boxes narrower , will need to make them taller to keep the same 6^3/ sub configuration. Finally... My question...How would yall think it would sound with subs up. And Port foward....right above rear seatbacks/headreasts? How would it effect the SPL(more important)... Thanks in advance.

I would but due to the depth of the enclosures... The ports would be too close to the back glass...
