Custom Sub Enclosure

Hi Guys,

Not sure if this will help at all but I had some custom work done to hold subs/amps/crossovers/etc in our first X5 back in like 2001. Granted this was when I was much more into car audio so our new 2006 is pretty plain back in the cargo area. Less the spare (come on we have roadside!!!), my old setup didn;t take up ANY cargo space yet provided ample volume for two 12'' subs and electronics. It wasn't a very "high-end" system but it was good gear properly installed and tuned and sounded great.

Good luck with yours!

PS - My plan for our new 2006 3.0 is too simply add a single 10 or 12 in a small sealed enclosure that is easily removed from the X when we need to pack her up tight for tailgating or travel. Pull two speaker wires off and the sub box comes right out!

That last pic makes me miss my old PPA power and art series amp...

Oh well, I still have my beefed up/juiced up rodek 2150 tucked away for bigger sound days.

I couldn't lose the use of my spare tire well. I roadtrip the X5 constantly, so the spare comes in and out based on if I'm in town or going out of town. I considered remaking the entire right side into an enclosure and having it sit flush w/ the sliding tray (which you don't have, and something I honestly don't even use), but that's something maybe further down the road when my current setup just isn't enough anymore.
