A free air sub is only going to introduce noise and vibration around that small chamber (fuse box, wiring harnesses, clips, gas door, etc.), and the airspace is tiny anyway, far from what you need for a true infinite baffle setup. The cargo cover is not rigid enough to be a distortion free mount for a sub. It will never hit super low in that space. That cargo space is way too small and closed-in to function optimally in a free-air setup. So what are the benefits of what you are trying to do? Thanks.
just looking at options right now. I am pretty good with fiberglass and have no problem making an enclosure to fit that space ala http://kward1.homestead.com/X5subpics.html. But was just exploring options
