Did you get a new box? That W6v2 mounts deep.

Any particular budget? Space constraints?

I made a custom box. It fits right where the toolbox used to be; however, its a little higher then normal boxes. it doesnt level perfectly. I have plenty of space for an amp. the whole trunk and i made an amp rack. The price i would like for it to be under $500.00. I've have been looking into the MONO Alpine MRD-M605. What does anyone think about that? MRD-M605 pushing a 12w6v2?

If anybody is interested in pictures how i got the 12"w6v2 in the trunk, i will take pictures. I'm pretty sure someone has done that already though.

Lonny is pushing his TREO 12" with the MRD-M605 and it hits real clean. You can find used ones for $200 shipped if you look hard enough.

Put some pictures up of your box, I wanna see how high it sits up.

He got it off of someone on ClubRSX. There's someone selling a JL Audio 500/1 on here for $225. https://www.s2ki.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=405287

Here are some pictures. EVERYTHING IS STILL UNDERCONSTRUCTION! I need an amp at the moment, and i leveled the whole trunk like 1/2 inch higher so the box will look more even. you can see on the carpet where i cut board.(needs remodeling)
