Bump....i'd like to see what he created, otherwise i'm going to go ahead w/ Zero's design, but i'm going to take it a step further and remove the gas cap locking mechanism and bracket so I can allevaite depth concerns inside the box, along w/ giving it just a wee bit more airspace.

I'm not sure if you X5 has the same rear subwoofer area as my E53, but i'm trying to find a buyer for my current subwoofer setup. If you haven't purchased anything yet, please take a look at this thread which has pics of the enclosure that i've made. Thanks for looking, I appreciate it as i'm trying to move forward and make a larger enclosure.

Definately put me on the list for this: I am current looking for a sub for my 04 X5. I dont think a 10" will be enough ofor me but a 12" should do the trick.

So put me down for the 12" sub enclosure and the new JL Thin Series 12" sub. Please PM me cost and availiblity and pics if any.

Still trying to work in a 12" solution, so far no luck... have a couple more designs to try but sadly I don't think it will be possible without fiberglassing a sub in. Not going to be possible at all IMO to keep the cover on and fit a 12".

I was thinking after seeing this, what about if the front panel of the enclosure is removable, and you could mount the pioneer flat design 12" sub to the inside of the faceplate... I think that could be feasible and will allow for the OEM cover to be used as the cone excursion will be nowhere near it.

Let me know if you think that is a possibility.

We have the 10" working, and Rockford Fosgate has a slim sub out now that IMO is better than the Pioneer.

Still working with the 12" and playing with some ideas, I do not believe we will be able to do anything with the JL thin series however. I would like to rule out the 12" completely before we sell the 10" enclosure.

You won't get the massive base from a thin type subwoofer, but you can good some good quality sound and they do pack some thump for the price. Your best bet is to check a local audio shop to see if they have some on display (although from what I have seen not many have them in an ideal box).
