There are some cheap fiberglass boxes on eBay. Fiberglass used to be very expensive but the price has gone down.

The W6V2 is a great sub and perfect for a 500/1.
A 10W7 would have even been better...

You can get a box like this and it would make it look nicer than the Prowedge boxes.

Mount the amp on the back seat or get a bracket built and put it in the rear CD changer area.

What I think... hmm...

Well, I think that you should put Dynaudio MW160GT drivers in all four doors, MD100 tweeters in the dash and the rear doors, and you should jettison the ProWedge idea and go with a single woofer in place of the door in the right rear corner.

Build a sub into the pass rear corner (totally stealth can be done with a single 10" like the DLS Magnesium or an Alumapro, with a build out you can get an DLS Iridium 12") and hide DLS Reference or Zapco Digital Reference amps under the load floor.

Better advice comes with telling us your budget, existing HU, and stuff like that, but that's what I'd do... given a clean slate.

well i already got the equipment so thats out of the door, but i dont want to void anything if i put it against the seat, maybe mount it on the floor or in one of the side compartments, who knows....im gonna ask my installer on what he thinks
